paroles de chanson Hamilton Hill - Demmene Syronn

Hamilton Hill, Hamilton Hill

I came up around Five Percenters that puffed reefer
Wore BVD t-shirts with matching sneakers
It was straight leg Lee jeans, Pumas or Adidas
And their boxes had to have at least 7-inch speakers
I was, fascinated by the slang of their talk
Their livers was full of liquor but they never ate pork
I always thought it was smooth how they walked with a bop
A little before, crack took a hold of the block
I was a witness to the cultural birth of Hip Hop
From Hamilton Hill, Schenectady, Upstate New York

Hamilton Hill, Schenectady, Upstate New York
Hamilton Hill, Schenectady, Upstate New York

It went from street fights and pedal bikes to guns and gold ropes
A promising community to one with low hopes
I remember when my house got robbed
And my Mom's always thought it was my uncle John
C'mon man. That's the irony of poverty
The line between love and family is drawn sloppily
Sometimes the sunshine punctures a dark cloud
Other times it's darkness, barely a light found
Thank God, cause Mom was a force to be reckoned with
Pops, he played the roll that was sort of irrelevant
It is what it is though, this is for my kinfolk
The ones who exposed me to part of what I live for
So thanks for the info, I'm thankful
That I even ever got the intro, I'm grateful
Now it's time to pay my respect due, I'm able
Trust I've lived a bunch of places but this one's the cradle

Hamilton Hill, Schenectady, Upstate New York
Hamilton Hill, Schenectady, Upstate New York

Hey, I am what I am all because of Schenectady
No matter where I'm at Imma carry the energy

Hamilton Hill, Schenectady, Upstate New York
Hamilton Hill, Schenectady, Upstate New York
Hamilton Hill, Schenectady, Upstate New York
Hamilton Hill, Schenectady, Upstate New York

Where the foundation was laid
Look at me now, a combination, of everything I seen as a child
And I carry the essence with me when I'm moving the crowd
Since my adolescence I've been etching sketches of sound
Now my efforts get delivered with ridiculous style
And every message is a part of my psychological profile
I'm certified in the bi-laws, my record's profound
For always being ready to go and never broke down
The portfolio is calibrated for quality
In other words, I'm properly prepared for this odyssey
The captain of the kamikaze pilot academy
And line for line I'm drafting my autobiography
My passion is a product of poverty's ingenuity
In every single word there's a little piece of Schenectady

Hamilton Hill, Schenectady, Upstate New York
Hamilton Hill, Schenectady, Upstate New York
Hamilton Hill, Schenectady, Upstate New York
Hamilton Hill, Schenectady, Upstate New York
