[Intro] So what's Ethan gonna talk about on this song, I mean He usually just talks about sh** like: Like getting famous and making A-list, and forgetting haters, and stacking papers til y'all know what his name is, but I wonder what he'll do on this… Probably the same thing [Verse 1] Like getting famous and making A-list And forgetting haters and stacking papers Til you know what my name is, I don't see no complainers It's as plain as day to see your accusation's heinous Stainless steel couldn't shine as bright as me I'm green, you couldn't find a bigger lime in the light as me You couldn't find someone that rhymes as tight as me And if we talking flow, my waves are mighty frightening Don't surf You talking on the wrong turf, so if you trying to k** me, it won't work You throwing dirt, but it's landing on your own shirt If you think the world is yours, you're living on the wrong Earth You see me working, y'all just circle-jerkin Open curtains, see you lurking, hurt and confused Social services, these rappers get abused Avoid the rules, step up you stepping stools [Chorus] Boston Ma**achusetts that's the city that I'm rootin' Melrose Ma**achusetts that's the city that I grew in Born in Lowell, taking summer day-trips to Revere Have no fear, savior of our cities: Ethan Harrington is here [Verse 2] I'm bread you been dough You say she bend o-ver, but when though I'm presidential, your flows are rental My reign torrential, “You rich?” Aha no But girl like what, so? I got the best flow And I'll get a Range Ro-ver in the end ho So you better jump on, the bandwagon soon bro 'Cause I'm heating up quick, no longer a cool coal But who told you that you could best me? You couldn't do this boy, so don't test me You wrestling, I'm Jet Li, don't tempt me I'll change your strut to limping and make your bars sound empty See this be, the illest of them all Man I spit like October, watch these rappers fall
Come back like I told you soon as they call Me E instead of Ethan, watch them so appalled While I uphold: [Chorus 2] Boston Ma**achusetts that's the city that I'm rootin' Melrose Ma**achusetts that's the city that I grew in Born in Lowell, taking summer day-trips to Revere It appeared, you didn't know my name Now I've made it clear, I'm here [Verse 3] I won the talent show, now they know That my rapping ain't no joke I mean I got the flows that move the globe And make the cold turn into snow The answer's no if you want help I mean I did this by myself For recognition, not the wealth I dealt with sh** since day one So I made it secret Now those same people, sent my lyrics, read it, weep it Got a closet, that I'm sweepin' Do my spring cleaning every weekend, y'all competing I am leaving, y'all are heathens I am heating up, yup I am eatin', havoc wreakin' For those of you trying to reach the heights I am seeing Don't ever try and give up 'cause there isn't any reason But if you wanna make it up here don't start copying him 'Cause I'll f**ing destroy you any evening I am Ethan, yup Getting famous and making A-list Forgetting haters and stacking papers Til y'all know what my name is It's insane if I didn't say it yet, my name is Ethan, make the bet Put your eggs in my basket, cash the checks Don't go asking if it's worth it, the answer's yes Man I got a heavy load on my back and chest Now I'm carrying my city because I've claimed the best Because I framed the rest as fakes, they've made a mess And I won't make amends until my pain's at rest But I don't know if I'll ever escape the stress 'Cause I fought my way in this game and then I made a nest Yeah I can say you're less in realness as I Real recognize real and unreal ones die So just comply Or load up and ride, 'cause I Wanna see if you really feel the way you say you do inside! Oh my
