[Chorus: Chamillionaire]    (Welcome to the South) Try to criticize us for how we live    And go do the same thangs that we just did, mmm    (Better watch your mouth) try to criticize us for how we spit    Then say you respect the money that we get, mmm    (Welcome to the South) Must you criticize everything we did    Then expect at us to never even trip, mmm    We more than grilles and candy paint so be careful what you say    Cause we must just throw it right back in your face, hey    (Better watch your mouth)       [Chamillionaire]    Uhh, across the globe I hear the hate    The same whispers from state to state    If you didn't say it then this ain't for you    Don't worry 'bout it cause you can't relate    Before you buy me and you criticize me    while you beside me let's get it straight    Cause you remind me of the kid beside me    Same rapper that you say you hate    Wanna criticize then fine (fine)    Said it's I've got simple rhymes (rhymes)    Every time I travel I'm    in the backyard that act just like mine    Same grind just different times (times)    I know things done changed a lil'    Used to show our grills and they be like "Eww!"    Nowadays all say "That's ill"    I remember when a major label    wouldn't even come pay a visit    Used to say they have love for us but    they was blowin' them suspect kisses    Now you watch and we see you plot    and you can't act like we ain't suspicious    Shootin' slugs just shoot at us    but when you bust your thang it misses    Uhh, I ain't even much trippin'    cause I'm the man where I'm residin'   So I'm decidin' where I'm residin'   so never tolerate domestic violence    I know you'd rather me just relax    and sit back in silence    But I'm the owner, not just a client    so the South is what I stay advertisin'      [Chorus: Chamillionaire]    (Welcome to the South) Try to criticize us for how we live    And go do the same thangs that we just did, mmm    (Better watch your mouth) try to criticize us for how we spit    Then say you respect the money that we get, mmm    (Welcome to the South) Must you criticize everything we did    Then expect at us to never even trip, mmm    We more than grilles and candy paint so be careful what you say    Cause we must just throw it right back in your face, hey    (Better watch your mouth)      [Chamillionaire]    Don't knock the swagger, don't knock the swagger    then turn around and be a swagger-jacker    If you a man then you should be a man    don't walk around without a Adam's apple    We was lookin at it from a distance    but we wasn't trippin' cause it had to happen    Styrofoam cup, and a Snapple    and you actin like you been a fan of rappin'    If you was hatin or participatin'    when you saw us up and never slidin' through    You and everybody else that did it    It applied to them and it applied to you    You actin like somebody made you say it    Took your hand and then applied the glue    Turn around and gave the mic to you    and now you end up lookin like a fool    Can't polly us, come follow us    and that's the reason I'm in the lead    The rest of y'all are some bench warmers    and gettin' mad cause I'm in the lead    I'm switchin' speeds don't get fatigued    Y'all behind the line, y'all chasin' me    Y'all finna see my energy    so ya get off my back and let a playa breathe    I won't lie and act like    that I'm the one supportin' everything    Like Southern rappers ain't never lame    like some of these boys don't eff up the game    Most of us do our thang    and the rest of 'em leave my ears in pain    But that's him and he sure ain't me    so don't look at us like we all the same       [Chorus: Chamillionaire]    (Welcome to the South) Try to criticize us for how we live    And go do the same thangs that we just did, mmm    (Better watch your mouth) try to criticize us for how we spit    Then say you respect the money that we get, mmm    (Welcome to the South) Must you criticize everything we did    Then expect at us to never even trip, mmm    We more than grilles and candy paint so be careful what you say    Cause we must just throw it right back in your face, hey    (Better watch your mouth)      [Pimp C]    Uhh, South side candy rider never been a socializer    Flyin' high, work grinder, knock your gal you can't find her    She was sittin on butter, hun'ned thousand under her ass    I was workin' the wood circle smokin' candy mashin' on the gas    I can't be you I can't do you, I just do me, if you ain't    been where I been then you cain't, be who I be if you ain't    seen what I seen and you cain't, see what I see    I put the bricks, in the road there was slab on it wasn't free    Been a legend in the South since the year 9-3    "Pocket Full of Stones," menace to society    The hard in the cars, chrome-y fo's, not D's    Now everybody pimpin' and they all got keys    Please you work, for UPS    They say they smokin' dro but all I keep smellin' is cress    I roll with the best, '92 me and Screw in the Lexus    I might not be nothin to you but I'm the shit in that Texas       (Welcome to the South...)
