Eagles N Ravens – This is Angoon

Lyrics

From the YouTube page…

Boy: Hey, Man! Did I see you freestyle at the Light Foot Concert?
Swerv Merv: Yeah, man. That was me.
Boy: Do you make your own music?
Swerv: Yeah, we make our own music, we got our own group called Eagles and Ravens, im Swerv merv, that's T.NT., and Lil' J over there. And we're all from a small town called Angoon.
Boy: Where's Angoon?

THIS IS ANGOON
Repping the South East, somewhere ANG's is in Admiralty
THIS IS ANGOON
The home town of my Tlingits 99 82, OH!
THIS IS ANGOON
It's my zip code, go to my state: ALASKA
THIS IS ANGOON
then go to Angoon, that is my destination

TNT
This is Angoon, Alaska 907 straight representa
T.N.T on this track, I know you been waiting
Took some time, took some debatin'
There's nothing' about me that's fakin'
So don't mistake it.
I'm an Angoon representa 'til I die
I'm a native we don't cry,
We sit back and we sigh
"Be strong, son" I don't know how many times I heard it.
Angoon, South East Alaska
A low cap city, put a star on the map
What's this crap? Why can't we just all get along?
Fightin' for all the wrong reasons
Aiming their words like their guns
(CLICK CLACK)
Hunting season year round
And all you hear is (GUN SHOTS)
What's that sound? (Looks around concerned at what the sound is)
That's another good person hitting the ground
(Raising hands in confusion)

THIS IS ANGOON
Repping the South East, somewhere ANG's is in Admiralty
THIS IS ANGOON
The home town of my Tlingits 99 82, OH!
THIS IS ANGOON
It's my zip code, go to my state: ALASKA
THIS IS ANGOON
then go to Angoon, that is my destination

Swerv Merv
Living a village life isnt bad
Don't have to worry about the drive-by
or people shooting each other
The only thing we go is drama music in my heart
I liked it from the start, I feel so tall
Cuz everyone looks up to me
I'd like to thank God I breathe 24/7
When I die, I hope I go to Heaven
I get my lyrics from being out on the dock
When I turned around, I see my block
And I sit here wondering why God put me on the rock
Why is it when I'm by myself, I can freestyle real good
But when it comes to writing or recording a track
I feel like I'm nervous and stage fright
I feel like the Earth is half Heaven and half Hell
I wish the whole world could put all the hate
And killing and Beating in a garbage bag, throw it away
We don't need them
Everyone should be Giving a life of chance
Because God only gave us one life to live

THIS IS ANGOON
Repping the South East, somewhere ANG's is in Admiralty
THIS IS ANGOON
The home town of my Tlingits 99 82, OH!
THIS IS ANGOON
It's my zip code, go to my state: ALASKA
THIS IS ANGOON
then go to Angoon, that is my destination

THIS IS ANGOON
THIS IS ANGOON
THIS IS ANGOON

"It’s like they just woke up one day & decided to rap."

"Hahahah is this for real..? how embarassing..
eskimos clearly shouldn’t rap"

"I didn’t know ELI PORTER gives private lessons now LOL. Their autotune box must still be in defrost mode."

"No way, it’s like Reh Dogg, Eli Porter and T-Pain had some kind of Alaskan bastard child."
