North Memphis Like Me lyrics

[Hook - Juicy J] 2x

You ain't hood

You ain't gangsta

You ain't tough

You ain't street

You ain't North-North-North-North Memphis like me

You ain't ballin'

You ain't swaggin'

You ain't bangin'

You ain't street

You ain't North-North-North-North Memphis like me

[Juicy J]

We got them goons on deck, them choppas on deck

Don't violate these mafia niggas with them ho-threats

We deep off in the club, you know we smell like weed

You know we're dealing cash, you know we're selling D

You see us drankin' Goose, you see us gettin' loose

You know we ain't no cowards, you know that we'll shoot

We see you looking scared, we feel you bout to leave

You reaching in your pockets, you rambling for your keys

Somebody saw a strap, this bitch started to holla

I mugged her in her face, I hit you with a bottle

Now here come your goons, all you hear is boom

When the smoke clears, nothing but bodies in the room

[Hook - Juicy J] 2x

You ain't hood

You ain't gangsta

You ain't tough

You ain't street

You ain't North-North-North-North Memphis like me

You ain't ballin'

You ain't swaggin'

You ain't bangin'

You ain't street

You ain't North-North-North-North Memphis like me

[V Slash]

You ain't tough you ain't street

How the fuck your ass hood?

I'm gangsta you ain't—

Let's get that understood

I was raised in the projects

And these niggas know that

Seven-Fo' tatted cross my chest till they blow

You ain't Nor-or-or-orth-orth Memphis like me

You ain't from the short end of hyde park like me

You ain't keep it real with your niggas, dawg, quit flaugin'

Cause nigga if you do, they will be out here starvin'

You don't fuck with Juicy 'n' Paul, and Pat like me

You ain't one to whoop that-cook that crack, nigga, like me

You ain't toss your main bitch with your clique—you a ho

Plus a character, an amateur now put that on the wall

[Hook - Juicy J] 2x

You ain't hood

You ain't gangsta

You ain't tough

You ain't street

You ain't North-North-North-North Memphis like me

You ain't ballin'

You ain't swaggin'

You ain't bangin'

You ain't street

You ain't North-North-North-North Memphis like me

[Break - Juicy J]

North Memphis... North Memphis...

[Project Pat]

Knockin' niggas' jaws

Runnin' hoes into walls

Niggas' yelling "North, North"

All you screamin' "North, North"

The first to throw a blow

Always strapped with pistol

I'll murk one of you bastards

Don't get on that list, ho

You turned stay witness, witness how my wrist glow

I Escalade on twenty-fo's

Shows, I gets dough

They thought that was rosé, but that's really Cris, though

Don't get shot off your face, for runnin' your lips, ho

Fake niggas—Hyde Park keep them pistol grips row

You gang-bangin' hustlers just like Bloods and Crips, though

But this ain't killa Cali, but a killing's understood

If you ain't from North Memphis, then you ain't from my hood
