Reppin For My City by Antone Lyrics
[Intro: AnTone]
Alright Garrett, I see you
Let's get it, let's get it
[Verse 1: AnTone]
There's a homeless man outside of CVS
There's me. Walking on the sidewalk with the GPS
I'm going to the GameStop on Beacon
Thinking that one day I should go and see Legion
And then I see the homeless man
Wrapped in robes so old and some change in his hand
I'm scraping my fingers in my worn out wallet
Looking for some coin in my deep ass pockets
He asked me if I'm from the city of the Rockets
He saw my sweatshirt that my parents bought from Target
I'm like yeah. He asked me who's your favorite Rocket?
I thought about it for a second, then I said it was Harden
He said I'm too young and that there was a time
Back before when he was at the top of his prime
That he saw Hakeem the Dream and he lost his mind
I told him that my mom talks about him all the time
Hey. Hey
[Chorus: AnTone]
I'm still repping for my city
Although I'm in a different city
Ain't it nice tho? Ain't it pretty?
When I come home, I can't help but feel giddy
I'm still repping for my city
Although I'm in a different city
Ain't it nice tho? Ain't it pretty?
When I come home, I can't help but feel giddy
[Verse 2: AnTone]
Test, test, test, test, test, test, test, test, test, test, test
Alright
My momma told me long ago about this story
Back when my fellow H-Town fam felt the glory
My uncle in those days wore diapers as a baby
When they became the champions the city was crazy
My mom stood up looking at the stars
In downtown, she told me it was cars on cars
The way that she described it man it was asinine
She saw the whole team in the firetruck passing by
Everyone kept bowing to Hakeem Olajuwon
Clyde Drexeler, I swear the list goes on and on
Everyone so surprised by this here phenomenon
I just couldn't help but to keep pondering on
This is the same city I love. Where I was born
I never get enough of Whataburger for support
Kemah and Galveston, I swear I love it all
And I'll miss every inch of it when I leave in the fall
Yeah
[Chorus: AnTone]
I'm still repping for my city
Although I'm in a different city
Ain't it nice tho? Ain't it pretty?
When I come home, I can't help but feel giddy
I'm still repping for my city
Although I'm in a different city
Ain't it nice tho? Ain't it pretty?
When I come home, I can't help but feel giddy
[Outro: AnTone]
Shout out to my H Town fam for holding it down
We just had the Super Bowl like, seems like months ago
One thing's for sure though
I can't wait to get back home
Alright Garrett, I see you
Let's get it, let's get it
