Chelsea Daddeh - Fo Da Locals Lyrics

Imma let the beat drop a couple f*cking times
Said imma let the beat drop a couple f*cking times
I'm on that weed whack
OG hash is prime
Bet you didn't think an island girl could spit some rhymes
Only real homies know I been on this grind
Tryna tell stories before this shit slips my mind
I'm tryna tell stories about the islands where I'm from
I'm tryna state facts for the ignorant and dumb

You ain't local then don't play
You can't rep Hawaii nei
All that attitude and strife
I'm just tryna make things right
Rep the valleys where it's green
All the islands they're serene
But we must stop building buildings

How we running out of land
How we putting fake sand
Locals can't own homes
Down payment a hundred grand
We gotta look out for Kapuna
Before they get robbed
How they kick us out our own homes
And how they telling us to get jobs

I'm sick of hearing shit about the uncles getting whacked
And all these little kids who think it's cool to be strapped
What happened to the up and ups
What happened to the scraps
You don't hit first but you better hit back
That's how I was raised
Yeah my daddy taught me that
I'm just tryna spread the word
For those who don't know
If you ain't got respect your ass has got to go

You ain't local then don't play
You can't rep Hawaii nei
All that attitude and strife
I'm just tryna make things right
Rep the valleys where it's green
All the islands they're serene
But we must stop building buildings

How we running out of land
How we putting fake sand
Locals can't own homes down payment a hundred grand
We gotta look out for Kapuna before they get robbed
How they kick us out our own homes
And how they tellin' us to get jobs

You ain't local then don't play
You can't rep Hawaii nei
All that attitude and strife
I'm just tryna make things right
Rep the valleys where it's green
All the islands they're serene
But we must stop building buildings

And I don't really care if you like what I say
You claimed you was local, but you said you from K Bay
First lemme tell you it's called Kaneohe
Second lemme introduce myself they call me Cd Bae

You ain't local then don't play
You can't rep Hawaii nei
All that attitude and strife
I'm just tryna make things right
Rep the valleys where it's green
All the islands they're serene
But we must stop building buildings

You ain't local then don't play
You can't rep Hawaii nei
All that attitude and strife
I'm just tryna make things right
Rep the valleys where it's green
All the islands they're serene
But we must stop building buildings
