(Where Tommy at?)
Yeah
I met this girl when I was one day old
In the middle of America, she loved the cold
She said: Excuse me, lil' homie, I know you don't know me
But I want you by my side while you grow and get old
Yeah, yeah
Fast-forward, I'm fourteen, my mom passed away
Pops locked in a cell somewhere upstate
He ain't write, ain't call, ain't even say sorry
So she told me I shouldn't wait, yeah, yeah, yeah
She said: Go get it, yeah
Told me with her I'd be safe, so I said: Fuck it, I'ma get it
I ain't finna hesitate, uh
When I make up for you, I'ma put you on the map, yeah
Went and laced up my shoes, put the whole city on my back
Threw on my coat, yeah, then I jumped off the porch, yeah
I'ma do it for her like no nigga before
She love when I talk her through it
Said it gave her purpose
She seen niggas every day lose their life over verdicts, uh
A few years pass, now she blowin' trees
Started attractin' mad niggas, domestics and overseas
Now they sayin' they love her, but they don't know her like me
A mile high where she stand, she make it hard to breathe
I told her all the time I would never leave, yeah, yeah
Long as I got money and a warm place to sleep, yeah
No one knows me better, she bipolar, not the weather
Sometimes I wonder how many faces she sees
And if she tell other nigga the same shit she tell me
Sometimes she be gassin' nigga, lettin' anybody enter
But that's my progressive-ass bitch, she goes by Denver
She goes by Denver
Yeah, she cold, but she warm in the winter, yeah
She the type make a young nigga remember where he came from
Where he stand, she goes by Denver, yeah, yeah, yeah

Mile-high love, I could never surrender
Yeah, these other niggas want her attention, but
They don't know her like I can, she goes by Denver, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, she goes by Denver, yeah, yeah, yeah
She raised me different, yeah
Told me: Go get it, yeah
Put the city on my back, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
