[Verse 1]

Put your left foot in front of your right foot and walk wit me

Through the city of chi where Vultures be

Have you heard that the city cried

Sociologists be tellin' me the city died

From all the murderin', gang bangin' and drug dealin'

Every 30 hours they find another body with some slugs in 'em

And ain't blood in it

This the Ill state nigga and ain't no love in it

Now we gon' start with the south side

Where GDs and BDs and Blackstones don't coincide

So let me be your tour guide

So when you in a certain area you will know what that hood ride

Now let's start with the Vulture where Folks'll throw up the fork sign to

niggaz they know They close to

At 49th and State some mingle

But just a few buildings north you got BDs throwin' 3 fingers

They call that The Low

But back on 53rd and State them MCs be runnin' the hole

You got police stations up in the Taylor

They there, but they can't save ya

Walk wit me

I'm just here to remind ya

That if ya plug you need to know exactly who to throw up your sign to

Cause from that mere folly

You might have your family come and identify your body

So walk wit me



[Chorus]

Don't underestimate the south side

Come in actin' like you hard they'll leave your mouth wide

And on the east there's no peace

Catch one in the head and end up dead in the streets

And don't attempt to try the west side

They'll kill you just to show ya that they the best side

This is the city where the vultures be

So put your left foot in front of your right foot and walk wit me



[Verse 2]

At 51st and goin' west

You in Moe town where niggaz throw up the sign after they hit they're chest

On 61st and Cottage Grove

To 6-trey

Blackstones run that area and they sportin' braids

Fuller Park and Terror Town

Remember the fort, them devils had to tear it down

But on 87th and Jeffrey them niggaz are Vice Lords

Committed to they livin' and all willin' to die for it

Back in Lake Side it's full of GDs

But GDs and BDs are runnin' Pax Town and Lawn City

Jeffrey Manor up to the Ickes

Ida B. Wells, just stay aware, ya'll with me

Can't miss Cabrini

This is the crime livin' city

I go to the mosque on 73rd and Stony so they can uplift me

Cause this really gets to my stomach

Get back in the car, let's take a trip to the Wild, Wild 100s, uh

Roseland is a livin' hell

Bodies droppin off Yale

From 10-trey to Riverdale

You can go to Country Club and Calumet with me

Close proximity but that's not considered the city

So hit me on a page if there's somethin' you wanna know

About major crime areas of Chicago

Almost anything you wanna know you can talk to me

But if you wanna see it

Walk wit me



[Chorus]



[Verse 3]

Let's take a trip to the west side

Where people in they opinion are tellin' me it's the best side

Some even say it's the fresh side

But far as my conviction I consider it is the death side

They be bustin' niggaz at stop signs

Over 2000 police and still inadequate as to stop crime

And everytime a niggaz wetta

He go to Mt. Sinai hospital

Cause they'll kill you in Loretta

Now let me tell you where the hood's dwell

Like in K-town where them BGs be throwin' up the triple L

Them niggaz shoot the coppers down

We even got New Breeds on the south side in Pocket Town

They runnin' the Village for sure

But on 16th and Kostner

You mostly gonna see them Souls

They be throwin' up the one

Now let's go see them Insane Vice Lords on the avenue in Austin

They are the craziest I ever saw

And they forgot about them Gangsta Disciples over on Wastenaw

Homan used to be full of Unknowns

Like Chicago avenue now that's the place where them Conservatives roam

You get caught slippin' if ya wanna

Cause them Travelin' Vice Lords will be waitin' on ya on California

See Chi's full of hard brothas

Have you been through Central avenue the land of them 4 Corner Hustlas

Waitin' just to rush ya

???

???

You can get traced in chalk and see

Or you can be on the safe side nigga and walk wit me
