West Coast Kid

[Intro: Paul Wright & TobyMac]
Yo, I'm a West coast kid livin' in Nashville
And I'm a East coast kid livin' in Nashville
Yo, I'm a West coast kid
And I'm a East coast kid
Yo, I'm a West coast, East coast, West coast, East coast

[Verse 1: Paul Wright]
Yo, I'm a West coast kid livin' in Nashville
Moved here in the summer when I got my record deal
Plan to make a mil' but I've only sold a thousand
So I relocated to low-income housin'
I'm all about singin' the blues
Take a walk in my shoes
You can see my point of view
Country folk on the back porch, pickin' banjos
Grams and Gramps are bustin' a move with the dosey-doe's

[Chorus: Paul Wright & TobyMac]
It's all hip-hop to me, yeah
It's all hip hop to me, it's all hip-hop to me
It's all hip-hop to me, alright
It's all hip-hop to me, it's all hip-hop to me
It's all hip-hop to me, I'ma grab my guitar
It's all hip-hop to me, it's all hip-hop to me
It's all hip-hop to me, so tight
It's all hip-hop to me, it's all hip-hop to me

[Post-Chorus: Paul Wright & TobyMac]
And I'm a grab my guitar
And play you this song
And, all the people, come on now
And sing along

[Verse 3: TobyMac & Paul Wright]
West coast kid livin' in Nashville
Moved here in the summer when I got my record deal
And I'm a East coast kid livin' in Nashville
Moved here in the winter when I got my record deal
Started with some vinyl and a mic in D.C
Suburban little punk with an urban degree (Urban degree)
I'm all about makin' some noise
And givin' people a choice
Long as I'm hearin' God's voice (God's voice)
All my folk on the back porch
Tru, me, and Moses, Mandy, Marley
Ain't it sweet how it grows? (Sweet how it grows, sweet how it grows us)

[Chorus: Paul Wright & TobyMac]
It's all hip-hop to me, yeah
It's all hip hop to me, it's all hip-hop to me
It's all hip-hop to me, alright
It's all hip-hop to me, it's all hip-hop to me
It's all hip-hop to me, I'ma grab my guitar
It's all hip-hop to me, it's all hip-hop to me
It's all hip-hop to me, so tight
It's all hip-hop to me, it's all hip-hop to me

[Verse 4: Paul Wright]
My mother used to sing me rhymes (Sing me rhymes) when she put me to sleep (C'mon, c'mon)
I wonder if she realized she was sowing seeds (Sowing seeds)
And now they're growin', growin', growing to the sky (To the sky)
And now I'm flowin', flowin' (Flowin'), flowin' on this mic (What ya got? C'mon. What ya got? What ya got?)

[Refrain]
It's all hip-hop to me
What you want, what you want, what you want, what you want, what you need
It's all hip-hop to me
What you want, what you want, what you want, what you want, what you need

[Pre-Chorus: Paul Wright & TobyMac]
Yo, I'm a West coast kid livin' in Nashville
And I'm a East coast kid livin' in Nashville
Moved here in the summer when I got my record deal
Moved here in the winter when I got my record deal

[Chorus]
It's all hip-hop to me (Free your mind and free your soul, listen to the rhyme in stereo)
It's all hip-hop to me, alright (Turn the music up so that you can hear a sweet sound comin' down)
It's all hip-hop to me, I'ma grab my guitar (Loud and clear make a simple melody and we lay it down, put it all together make a brand new sound)
It's all hip-hop to me, so tight (Maybe it's a symphony or maybe just a melody, it really doesn't matter 'cause…)

[Chorus: Paul Wright & TobyMac]
It's all hip-hop to me, yeah (Free your mind and free your soul, listen to the rhyme in stereo)
It's all hip hop to me, it's all hip-hop to me
It's all hip-hop to me, alright (Turn the music up so that you can hear a sweet sound comin' down)
It's all hip-hop to me, it's all hip-hop to me
It's all hip-hop to me, I'ma grab my guitar (Loud and clear make a simple melody and we lay it down, put it all together make a brand new sound)
It's all hip-hop to me, it's all hip-hop to me
It's all hip-hop to me, so tight
It's all hip-hop to me, it's all hip-hop to me (Maybe it's a symphony or maybe just a melody, it really doesn't matter 'cause…)
