Maino - What Happened Lyrics
(Intro)Turn the mic up manGet it loudAh(Verse)First the fat boys break up, then dibs at makeupNiggas got a problem with Hov15 years later, are we greater? Couple milk skyscrapersAnd people still waitin for Hov?New York got soft, niggas say they unity is lostThe critics pointing fingers, is it 50 sent for?That we on a down slope, what happened to the east coast?Do we blame it on the music? Should we blame Heathrow?The OG’s lookin for that 90’s rap eraBut these young kids screamin em Young Money lettersWhat a nigga pposed to do? I don’t have the slightest clueWhen you tryin to keep it real but being real ain’t really coolWant the truth to be exposed, I don’t judge a man’s clothesBut these niggas wearin skirts and you tell me that it’s dopeI ain’t hatin, I’m just sayin, I’m just speakin how I feelEx con, all for rap, I done touched a couple millMan this shit is getting crazy, it’ll make you go bananasBut New York got a playlist look exactly like Atlanta’sI tried to mind my business but they pushed me to the edge and shitHeard a New York nigga say New York was irrelevant(Hook x2)What happened to my city mane?What happened to my city mane?What happened to my city?Nobody give a ***** cuz ain’t no love up in my city, no(Verse)Guess I’m caught up in my feelings‘Cus I just can’t just sit and watch these niggas crush our buildingsI’m so confused, at times I thought – what should be my mission?‘Cus I just gave up my girl for a stripper that’s religiousHope the DJ’s play my record, yeaHe gon play my recordIf I rap and rap like that he gon pay attentionWhen I cook it cook it, bake it bake itCut it cut it, swag it swag itTwerk twerk work work, we gon play, we gon playWhen rappers and the Shawty get they passes from the folkWhen they come to New York City they do anything they wantHow I’m pposed to move? What the ***** would Biggie do?Should I confiscate they change? Should I make these niggas food?Man I’m thinkin to myself, it ain’t them, it is us‘Cause we destroyed each other, who gon support us?We pposed to be the team but we not, we look sweetSo why you think these niggas feel free to claim king?And I know they gon try to mix it up and say I made itBut I’ve been ridin foreign, since I’m 9 I get plentyJust sayin what these niggas scared to say but it’s how they feelNiggas in my city scared to say but this hoes they feelDreams are stacked bundles, dyin for this shitI called up Kiss, he said he tired of this shit(Call me up for real niggaSee what I got to say about this)Ayo Kiss(Verse)Yea, we was playin chess, now these niggas playin cardsIt’s a shame, it’s the strippers, it’s the new A&R’sLike what happened to my city?
