[Intro: Dizzy Wright]
Yeah, this for the city yo
Check it
[Verse 1: Dizzy Wright]
Man I'm from Las Vegas, homie where the lights shine
Home where the city is more pretty in the nighttime
Yeah I write rhymes 'cause I know I can handle that
Inner city ain't the place to be if you can't gamble yet
'Cause if you under 21 they show no love
So I took action and decided to blow
I had to show up, so what's happening people?
I'm past legal so deceitful [?] people
They want me to answer people, but I don't see the talent
So no need for asking, Flashy Inc. what's happening
I'm a CEO and addicted to the game
And I feel like Obama 'cause I'm addicted to the change
Assisting the fame like my fucking DJ
That will be his name, you came all the way that we play
Put this on replay and listen to my passion
Passed average, Las Vegas assassin
[Chorus]
We reppin' Las Vegas
Yes, we have made it
Patiently waited
Here in Las Vegas
The strip will make you feel brand new
These lights will inspire you
That's here in Las Vegas, Vegas, Vegas
[Verse 2: Dizzy Wright]
Yo, I did so much wrong I wonder if there's any good left
Never had a father so I follow my own foot steps
Made my own goals, graduated from high school
Coming out of Vegas, there is nobody like who
Like the Dizzy man, welcome to Dizzy Land
This is Tha Takeover, no this isn't Disneyland
Really fans, y'all really wanna be cool with me?
Let hip-hop know we're entering a new city
Las Vegas homie, I know it so well
We struggle here, what you think we live in hotels?
But if you don't live here or you ain't in the circle
You gon' believe everything you see in commercials
Like "What happens in Vegas, stays in Vegas"
And that's probably why Vegas is filled with so much hating
Desperation, lost of inspiration
But guess what Vegas, we finally made it, let's go
[Chorus]
We reppin' Las Vegas
Yes, we have made it
Patiently waited
Here in Las Vegas
The strip will make you feel brand new
These lights will inspire you
That's here in Las Vegas, Vegas, Vegas
[Verse 3: Dizzy Wright]
Yo, OMG what a day in mine
In the city of the sin, oh what a state of mind
So intelligent, a young black leader
Old soul like I'm carrying around a beeper
Beep beep got a message from the Lord yo
He say the devil's coming so keep the door closed
And keep that mug locked 'cause if you let him in
You'll end up at the police station taking a mugshot
And we don't need that, we trying to make a difference
So why you hating, we is only trying to make a living
Nothing was given, I had to work for it
And if this world was ocean then I would surf for it
For my family, money like Hannah
This is not New York, Cali, or Atlanta
This is Las Vegas, 702
'Cause we done did everything we wasn't supposed to, hey
[Chorus]
We reppin' Las Vegas
Yes, we have made it
Patiently waited
Here in Las Vegas
The strip will make you feel brand new
These lights will inspire you
That's here in Las Vegas, Vegas, Vegas
[Interlude: Dizzy Wright]
I wanna thank everybody for you know supporting us
Doing everything that we do for Las Vegas
We been trying to put on for a long time
We finally here though and we ain't going nowhere
Takeover
[Chorus]
We reppin' Las Vegas
Yes, we have made it
Patiently waited
Here in Las Vegas
The strip will make you feel brand new
These lights will inspire you
That's here in Las Vegas, Vegas, Vegas
