NXNW Remix
(专辑: The Unplanned Mixtape - 2009)
[MC Geologic:] Now we live from the
side of the
last of the
four corners Just short of the
northern international border Was born a
town upon the
pond that all the
people call The
Sound It's time to call 'em out, you standing up or falling down? Saba dug inside a
crate and Jake responded, he was on it We interpreted the
sample canceled The
opportunist on the
corner acting stupid We plotting to take it back The
crying and dedication on Gentrification Ave No imitation of way back, preservationist rap We honor the
past maybe to move it toward the
future From fresh tracks to emerald street, it's foundation And Mr. Anthony Grey paved the
way and now we chase him But they didn't have the
patience to place it as a
priority Herbs and haters never have served the
greater majority Words will never capture the
glory of our story Performing but never forgetting who came before me In the
northwest, northwest, northwest, north west [DJ Sabzi:] I'm from the
city where it rains at Where we bring the
pain at Put you lame cats where the
lames at We fly, we fresh, we hood And in the
northwest, Seattle I'm good with that nonsense See I'm on everything constant So you better ask him who I'm is The
lost city is the
last one standing We came through the
forks so the
crown we demand it [Kiwi:] The
town is enhancing at the
current date and time And in the
state of refinement definitive way to climb When it's sink or swim You want to test us? Better think again Going hard 'til we reach the
end One day at a
time I
just move faster, I
just move forward, I
just move past ya This is a
new chapter from here on after 206 north by northwest we... [?] [Thig Natural:] I'm from the
city of rain and we came to spit flame But come equipt with many mix that could solicit your dame I'm kind of sick with it mane I'm from the
city where you probably find 'em twisted in chain I
keep it natural that's the
name I
love my town so damn much I
never change But I
will speak to you through rhythms and over melodies Travel the
Emerald City with visions that you'll never see And clowns that front ain't worth my energy So here's the
remedy Northwest, northwest, northwest, northwest [Macklemore:] I
was that kid on 23rd and Alder With the
ghetto blast that got jacked, ran and told my mama Came back, quarterback, playing Steve Largent With lines and stay on your mind like Brian Bosworth Aw heck no, this the
best coast Since Vita was riding rays on the
metro One radio station they're really not playing it We need Kube like we need to build another stadium From Chop to Showbox to the
spots that we playing at We rock it like this rock, rock turn it hella quickly There really isn't anything that you could tell my city The
crowds gonna be like "Oh wow that was hella filthy" (That was hella filthy though) I
brought my shelltoes with me long-ass march, but the
clientele's listening Now while I'm at it I'll throw in a
backpack Put the
northwest on the
map, then go out and sell fifty Anybody contest, North by Northwest And it's still no rest 'cause we're not finished yet We're broke, but not broken Cold, but not frozen Lost but not forgotten, we're kicking the
doors open Anybody contest, North by Northwest And it's still no rest 'cause we're not finished yet We're broke, but not broken Cold, but not frozen Moving in slow motion, it's that Northwest classic
