I'm a legend where I come from
Go ask around, they'll tell you stories
If I was there, that party never stopped
Until tomorrow morning
From Bando's on the east side
To the skatepark where they sippin' 40s
If I was there, that shit was never borin'
That's hella true
My hometown was the Wonder Years
Must've drank a couple hundred beers
Must've jumped a couple dozen fences
Runnin' from the cops, blood 'n' sweat 'n' tеars
And everyone who I knеw back then
Still waitin' for me back home
They're like, "Fuckin' Tom MacDonald, man
That guy was such an asshole"
"He's a racist, he's just famous
'Cause o' controversial songs"
Shut the fuck up, I just beat Eminem on the iTunes charts
I'm number one, bitch
I broke the hearts and burnt the bridges
Find me at the skatepark or gettin' stitches
Find me on the East Side in my free time
With Vietnamese guys, they were a buncha killers
Y'all countin' your pennies, I'm countin' my blessin's
This shit is depressin'
I left and got famous, y'all stayed in that city
Got jealous 'n' angry 'n' broke 'n' arrested
It's your hometown hero
Can I please have your attention?
Hate me if you want, bitch
I am legend

You're not where you came from
You are what you make of it
You're not your small town hole-in-the-wall
If they say my city
Then, they know my name's comin' next
I'm that hero, you can like it or not
You're not where you came from
You are what you make of it
You're not your small town hole-in-the-wall
If they say my city
Then, they know my name's comin' next
I'm that hero, you can like it or not
But you don't know
Everybody got history
Li'l me, I was in the shit
Can't get in? Call me quick
If you ran outta weed
I always had a grip
If they're talkin' shit that I'm there
Not afraid to go make things weird
Li'l boy, I ain't scared
I 'on't really care
Post my address
I'mma be there
Y'all told me I was no star
Baby wouldn't go far
Baby moved to Hollywood
And showed up with a crowbar
Keep talkin' shit
My back breaks, the whole city on straps
What? Don't add me, you should be thankin' me
For puttin' your town on the map, fuck!
Y'all told me I was way lost
How you like your day jobs?
I'm still playin' games 'n' smoking weed
Now, nothin's changed much
Doin' Flash, motherfuckers
We done blew up and we're gone
We're your hometown heroes
If you like it or not
You're not where you came from
You are what you make of it
You're not your small town hole-in-the-wall
If they say my city
Then, they know my name's comin' next
I'm that hero, you can like it or not
You're not where you came from
You are what you make of it
You're not your small town hole-in-the-wall
If they say my city
Then, they know my name's comin' next
I'm that hero, you can like it or not
Land of the fake (Right?)
Small town, dope lake (Right?)
No one been great? (Right?)
Throw it in they face (Like...)
Everybody just gave up
"It's too hard, we don't make enough"
"It's our demographic, not the way we're rappin'
They've just never heard of us"
Man, it's time for you to just face facts
Never play the game around one lap
You never made a name, you never happened
You're not a has-been, you're straight trash
You can hate me, but you need me
I am what you daydream
I became what you want
There's no way to replace me
News flash, motherfuckers
I done blew up and I'm done
Still got that popular vote
I see the signs on their lawns
I'm your hometown hero
You can like that or not
I got the keys to the city
And I'm changin' the locks
You're not where you came from
You are what you make of it
You're not your small town hole-in-the-wall
If they say my city
Then, they know my name's comin' next
I'm that hero, you can like it or not
You're not where you came from
You are what you make of it
You're not your small town hole-in-the-wall
