Well it's that Texas representer, from Port Arthur the land
Well it's that Texas representer, from Port Arthur the land
Well it's that Texas representer, from Port Arthur the land
Coming straight out of that South, with my nuts in my hand
Let em hang all over this track, and all over the block
Cause the slab they got my back, when them boys wanna knock
It's U.G.K. 4 Life still, I miss my dog in the game
But even from behind the walls, he still hogging the game
Big Bun B ain't nothing changed, get use to the fact
And holla when you see me, chunking double deuce out the 'Lac
I'm moving slow up the block, 22's sitting cocked
I'm from the South, so it's automatic haters getting dropped
See me standing, in my five-deuce stance
I might seem young but you gon respect me, with this Glock in my pants
It's J-Ton a young guerilla, certified with them hands
If you thought of stopping Slow Loud
And Bangin, you better cancel your plans
That go for you and your mans, I'm 18 and well known through the H
I run with G's, so you better pump your brakes
I'm coming from the city of drank sippers, and Glock grippers
We four tippers and pimp strippers, we hit licks cause we go get us
I'm Slow Loud And Bangin, them fo's swanging my nuts hanging
My piece and chain stay dangling
From South Main all the way to Mangum
I'm on that Southlea, with Gu-U and that Cabbage Head
I'm with that Baldy Black, and that Big Mix we breaking bread
Stay to FED I hold it down, for all them boys in that 7-0-1
It's H-Town stay down, the streets made us from day one
We come from the, collect our funds in these
We be out our guns in these, it ain't no fun in these
You can get done in these, ain't no shining sun in these
Ain't nothing but dark in these, you better have heart in these
If you a mark, you need protection from God in these
Cause we got Crips and we got Bloods, that love to mob in these
Packing pistols and AK's, ready for war in these
Come down our block and get your ass, snatched out your car in these
H-O-U-S-T-O-N, T-E-X-A-S
M-O-C-I-T-Y D-O-N, in the flesh
I'm feared and respected, walking the streets of P.J
And Ridgevan or South Post Oak, probably in a wife beater
With razor blade creases in my jeans, plus hydro smoke
Fat Pat, SoChall back in the gap, that the Southside was holding
22'S, 24's, blades, dimples, hell yeah we rolling
Accompanied by a bad bitch, holding her gun for us
Just in case the law pull us over, they got no love for us
I'm from the Southside of Houston Texas, relentless and reckless
Making out of towners respect us, boss shine beam like projectors
I hit boys up in the intersection, pump weapons in your direction
You can get a lead infection, better go get your head protection
Cause these cowards slipping on the G.P., the H is my home
I pop and unlock the trunk, and then I'm out on a roam
I pop and unlock the trunk, and then I'm out on a roam
I pop and unlock the trunk, and then I'm out on a roam
Fo' swangas under the 'Lac, you know I'm riding the chrome
I was swangin the lane too hard, bout to break my two chrome
I run a time don, gunner time don
And won't leave, till I shuffle a brick and a pound
It's Don Dada, Michael Corleone
Ain't no reason to summer, bitch I'm back home
I'ma supply your block, give it what it need
I got five different hustles, whatever you need
This H-Town, Texas City of codeine
Without no hearts or smarts, you'll be dead in these streets
I'm fresh off the block and what I spit
It's already known and respected
You can catch me hopping out the Chevy, when it get hectic
See me posted on the block, like it's the first of the month
24'S and Lamborghini do's on them bags, I'll teach em to stunt
Now who that man about the city that
I claim, it's Houston Texas forever
Whether we on a different side, we still gon mob it together
Bitch I been gangsta from the birth
Better check the blood of my brothers
Slow Loud And Bangin is the truth, and it'll never be another
Ready or not, here comes the Southern juggernaut
Thugging out, some might say I'm bugging out
Phenomenon, 40 Cal under my arm
Run me wrong, I'ma have to do you harm
Not of the norm, I'm that smashing feature
Abnormal creature, that's what these streets'll teach ya
I will defeat ya, punish ya, if you can't come meet ya
Say the name of your block, and I'll come and meet ya
We come from the, collect our funds in these
We be out our guns in these, it ain't no fun in these
You can get done in these, ain't no shining sun in these
Ain't nothing but dark in these, you better have heart in these
If you a mark, you need protection from God in these
Cause we got Crips and we got Bloods, that love to mob in these
Packing pistols and AK's, ready for war in these
Come down our block and get your ass, snatched out your car in these
