Artist/Band: TobyMac
Lyrics for Song: West Coast Kid
Lyrics for Album: Renovating Diverse City [2005]



Yo I'm a west coast kid, livin in Nashville

and I'm a east coast kid, livin in Nashville

Yo I'm a west coast kid

and I'm a east coast kid

Yo I'm a west coast east coast west coast east coast



1ST VERSE

Yo I'm a west coast kid, livin in Nashville

Moved here in the summer when I got my record deal

Planned to make the mill but I only sold a thousand

So I'll be relocated to low income housing

I'm all about singin the blues,

Take a walk in my shoes you can see my point of view

Country folk on the back porch pickin banjos

Grams and Granps are bustin a move with the do-si-do



CHORUS

It's all hip-hop to me

(It's all hip-hop to me, It's all hip-hop to me) (x4)



2ND VERSE

And I'm a grab my guitar

And play you this this song

And all the people come on now and

Sing along

(West coast kid, livin in Nashville,

moved here in the summer when I got my record deal)

and I'm a east coast kid, livin in Nashville,

moved here in the winter when I got my record deal

Started with some vinyl and a mike in D.C.

Suburban little punk with an urban degree

I'm all about makin some noise and givin people a choice,

Long as I'm hearin God's voice

All my folk on the back porch, Tru, Me, and Moses,

Mandy, Marley, ain't it sweet how it grows us...



CHORUS



3RD VERSE

My mother used to sing me rhymes (Sing me rhymes)

When she put me to sleep

I wonder if she realized

She was sowin seeds, and now they're

Growin, growin... growin to the sky

and now i'm flowin, flowin... flowin on this mike...



It's all hip-hop to me (x2)



Yo, I'm a west coast kid, livin in Nashville

(And i'm a east coast kid, livin in Nashville)

Moved here in the summer when I got my record deal

(Moved here in the winter when I got my record deal)



It's all hip-hop to me... (x4)



CHORUS



I'm a west coast kid, livin in Nashville,

moved here in the summer when I got my record deal

(he's a) East coast kid, livin in Nashville,

moved here in the winter when I got my record deal (x4)
