Intro
Man give me one of them joints I can talk about this Town shit on 
Know what I’m talkin bout? 
So if I say somethin you might not understand, it may be time before your time 
Get what I’m talkin bout? 
Yeah man. Only real Town niggas gonna understand this shit man 
I’m goin from the Dope Era to the current times tho man 
Mekanix on the motherfuckin beat. Hahahahaa. Fabby Davis

Verse 1
I come from the city of dope 
Where you couldn’t be saved by John the Pope 
Ay mane you couldn’t be saved by Jesus 
Sliding through the east little niggas they beastin 
I'm from the dope era boy on citas 
Nike Cortez wit the Levi creases (ooooh) 
And all a nigga wanted was a drop top stang 
Or a 68' falcon sitting on thangs 
A box chevy a1 four 15s 
In the bay riding round slappin 4 15s 
Mane 4 15's Yea 4 1 5 
The Big homie Richie Rich taught me how to side 
I'm stuntin on niggas like baby and dem 
The Punk bitch fagged off stopped paying a pimp 
I’m from the O-A-K-L-A-N-D 
Where you was pimping mobbing or selling some D

Chorus
You can hear it in the way I talk 
You can see it in the way I walk 
You can tell by the way I drive 
You can’t tell by the way I fly 
You can see it in the way I dress 
Yea You should notice the way I finesse 
Oh you can see it way before I come 
Ain’t gotta say where I’m from 
Don’t act dumb I’m from Oakland nigga

Verse 2
Where they say cuz and blood in the same sentence
Like what's up wit blood shit cuz man I ain't trippin
Pimpin was a passion. Being a player a sport
Little d was 16 nigga driving a Porsche
I was only 13 hopped off of the porch
Got my game from Todd Shaw yall know him as Short
Felix Mitchell had the line with the Colombians
That was way before my time I was younger then
But that turn my city to the city of drugs
And in the dope era niggas wasn’t giving a fuck
You can buy some plug from the big homie
Or you can try to be a mack like the pimp Goldie
I use to idolize people like Hillbilly
Bushrod park getting scrill really
I wanted old schools nigga like Frog and them
Stunting hard just like Monty Hogg and dem

Chorus
You can hear it in the way I talk
You can see it in the way I walk
You can tell by the way I drive
You can’t tell by the way I fly
You can see it in the way I dress
Yea You should notice the way I finesse
Oh you can see it way before I come
Ain’t gotta say where I’m from
Don’t act dumb I’m from Oakland nigga

Verse 3
Hit Chestnut nigga for the weed smoke
I use to wanna ball hard like B Folks
And mack like Mill from 2 4
A real whorider like Sonnie Bo
All I ever wanted was to hit MB mall or something
Or go to Z Man like my baller cousins
Festival at the lake they need to bring that back
That’s where the top notches and the tendas was at
You little Young ass niggas don’t know bout that
Man you ain’t really from the town if you don’t know bout that
Slideshow nigga meet me at Beacon this weekend
Black Saturday them lil hoochies be freakin
You don’t know about this you betta ask yo folks
I’d never call East 14th International
I’m sure Fabby Davis wouldn't lie on it
And like the Luniz I still got 5 on it

Chorus
You can hear it in the way I talk
You can see it in the way I walk
You can tell by the way I drive
You can’t tell by the way I fly
You can see it in the way I dress
Yea You should notice the way I finesse
Oh you can see it way before I come
Ain’t gotta say where I’m from
Don’t act dumb I’m from Oakland nigga
