(J West Beats)

(I'm from Brooklyn, ****)

(Melvoni)

I'm from a place where we fightin' to survive

A concrete jungle, where the demons come alive

Under the rubbles, where we live a life of crime

Where you gotta knuckle for your shit to not become mine

I live in an expensive city with no money

Where you gotta hustle and grind hard for every penny

Skip school every day 'cause there's some shit that you could study

You lookin' for a come up, if you find one, you be lucky

And if you do, **** bring you back down

If you gotta fight, fight, ****, don't back down

And no trust nobody, they'll leave you assed out

Let 'em know your body, ain't no going back now

In the night time, it's daylight, 'cause the light shine

Till ya eyes blind, you don't see nothin', you ain't see it comin'

Ever since a youngin' I was told I wouldn't be nothin'

But, ****, fuck it

I got a hunnid **** hating on me

****, I'm from New York (New York)

I got a hunnid prisons waiting on me

****, I'm from New York (New York)

I got bitches setting traps on me

****, I'm from New York (New York)

White people callin' cops on me

****, I'm from New York (New York)

Where you from? What's your jack? Who you know?

Whatchu' doin' over here? Better know how to act

Better not be movin' scared and you better know how to share

No frontin', it ain't nothin' for me to put you in the air

Seeing people make me nervous, so I'm clutchin' my pole

And that's just how I came up, I learned before years old

**** describe me, all these lights, I got the stars

They don't wanna see you shinin'

**** ain't a complainer so I don't wanna see you whinin'

I might step in with my Tim's on

Had to grow up faster, to free turn into a big storm

Rocket in my pocket got me feeling like I'm Kim Jung Un

Pull up to your door, and I'm like ding-dong-boom

And I swear to my mother **** could get smacked up

Even NYPD, came in and all his back up

I'ma spank a **** so I might throw on these black ups

Who you bank with, ****? 'Cause I'm looking for a come up

I got a hunnid **** hating on me

****, I'm from New York (New York)

I got a hunnid prisons waiting on me

****, I'm from New York (New York)

I got bitches setting traps on me

****, I'm from New York (New York)

White people callin' cops on me

****, I'm from New York (New York)

New York (New York)

New York (New York)

New York (New York)

New York (New York)

New York (New York)

New York (New York)

New York (New York)

New York (New York)
