Verse:
Em 
Baby girl I know it's rough but come wit me

We can take a trip to the hood

It's no problem girl it's my city
         D
I could take you there
Em
Little kid wit guns only 15

When gun shots just watch us, run quickly

Girl just stay by my side
                    G           C

Police fly pursuit in a hurry
