Available Now on iTunes! I moved to a new town a couple weeks ago. Clarendon. It's pretty tough. Thank you to BJ and Q for their co-starring roles once again. And to the people of Arlington who I ran into (literally and figuratively) in the process of filming. Oh yes, and thanks to Ally the dog! More videos on the channel/website! http://www.goremy.com LYRICS Just moved to a new hood and it's straight up gangsta Let me show you around... my town People all around better know the deal that the people in this town are ghetto for real So when people tell me Remy, where you calling from? I say a straight up thug town called Arlington It's a real tough town packing heat and boat shoes my crib's in a rough spot right next to the Whole Foods I'm ducking gunfire daily check to see if one got me but that's just life in the hood when I go get my puffed kashi But we never do drugs no, cuz that's not me the only thing high up in here are my condo fees Welcome to Arlington the town that never fizzles Ballston, Rosslyn, Courthouse the Clizzledizzle So many places to choose you're gonna like to pick I'm in Courthouse so much that they call me Michael Vick And Rosslyn girls got money they all can pay the bills but that's all I'll film in Rosslyn cuz I hate walking up these hills and we kinda got a mall yeah you know you can't stop us got everything but nothing good, man it's kinda like tapas Just try to mess with us I'll shoot you right in the foot punk Just don't come on Tuesday nights that's when I meet with my book club Okay, I don't really read when I buy books it's kinda causal "Ah, you read Salinger?" Nah, my kitchen table wobbles Ducking down instictively in gunshots we're mired Wait nevermind, somebody's German luxury car just backfired Think you're leaving alive yeah you do but I don't buy it I'll gonna eliminate you like I did gluten from my diet Come and see me in an alley Run'll be what you're wishing Bustin out my fightin moves like the fetal position But first I need some cover y'all gotta help me this way Cover? You need backup? Nah punk, it's for my duvet! Straight thug hood getting mugged on the go go but muggings here is when a stranger comes and gives you coco Got a lot of bad girls Got a lot of tough dudes Our school of hard knocks was written up in US News We got dudes in brown flip flops and dudes in brown flip flops holy crap, why are all these dudes wearing brown flip flops?? Welcome to A-town... 5pm hit the gym even if I'm feelin crappy But first I walk my tiny dog with a little plastic baggy Stretch in front of folks around me so they know that I'm invested and press the button for the lobby even if somebody pressed it I go jogging At a reasonable pace and when I get to intersections man I jog in place Up in Gold's Gym gonna give it my all, son So many dudes here they should call this Ballston Rollin one deep so everybody can see us Cruising down Wilson all up in my Prius Get out the car check my shoe and sock a minute Stand right back up I got seven parking tickets In DC from the get go head to the metro You heading to Whitlow's? Hmm, maybe, I guess so... Ride's never boring
I say it's never better than Riding on an orange line train to Vienna You better step back punk that's your final warning? You gonna punch me? Nah, son, the doors are closing! What's with this delay? I can't wait for this Why'd they pick today to do this track maintenance? Now we're stuck in the city how we getting back son? We could take the green line... Ehh... So we're taking a taxi Back to our gangsta world Where the sidewalks brick and the streets are curbed So if you think you got the cred and you think your toughness got me come and see me in my town and we'll grab a cup of coffee At the Starbucks, or the Starbucks...
