Lyrics

I'm stained, it's under my skin

It's where I begin

It's not where I'm from, it's who I am

It's love and it's hate, it's passion, it's pain

The cold nights I prayed that gave me strength

I'm a product of the streets like narcotics and the beat

I be modest and discreet, honestly to speak

From the bottom of my heart, BK from the start

Where Brooklyn at? I'm in Sunset Park

Better than my competitors, backspace and edit ya

Freshman in this game, but I'm like years ahead of ya

I'm super bad, you McLovin my flow

The way I run it like Chris Brown, okay go

Came to claim my throne and now I'm taking it home

Back to BK where they set it in stone

I'm your idol, your highest title, numero uno

And yes I'm Puerto Rican and I'm speaking so that you know

'Cause you know that I know that these streets eat people

We don't live like equals, opinions are lethal

Love it or hate it, little bit jaded

Always underrated, it keeps me motivated

I'm stained, it's under my skin

It's where I begin

It's not where I'm from, it's who I am

It's love and it's hate, it's passion, it's pain

That's keeping me sane, can't take that away

'Cause I'm stained, I'm stained

F train rider, flame igniter

BK shoot up the party 'til the roof's on fire

And we don't need no water, let the motherfuckers burn

Burn motherfuckers 'til y'all motherfuckers learn

This is Brooklyn boot camp, you can't stop us

Street symphonies and ghetto operas

Say what they wanna say, do what they gotta do

Expect to break the rules, knowing that it's gonna get you

In the borough where the police follow ya

Belly of the beast 'cause the streets'll swallow ya

Where only your soul satisfies it's hunger

But what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger

You control your fate, you could hold that weight

Take that trip upstate or you could hold up, wait

Stop, think about it for a minute

The life you were given isn't infinite

I'm stained, it's under my skin

It's where I begin

It's not where I'm from, it's who I am

It's love and it's hate, it's passion, it's pain

The cold nights I prayed that gave me strength

It's under my skin, it's where I begin

It's not where I'm from, it's who I am

It's love and it's hate, it's passion, it's pain

The cold nights I prayed that gave me strength

From the bottom of my heart, BK from the start

Where Brooklyn at? Where Brooklyn at?

Where Brooklyn at? Where Brooklyn at?

Where Brooklyn at? Where Brooklyn at? (I'm stained)

Where Brooklyn at? Where Brooklyn at?

From the bottom of my heart, BK from the start

Where Brooklyn at? Where Brooklyn at?

Where Brooklyn at? Where Brooklyn at? Where Brooklyn at?
