Oh
Heyy
Oh no no noo-ohh
Heyy nonooo
I was born in Chicago
In 1991
I was born in Chicago
In 1991
Well my father told me
Honey, you'd better get a gun
Well my first friend went down
When I was 17 years old x2
Well, there's one thing that I can say about that boy
Ohh he's gotta go
I was born in Chicago
Killers everywhere you go
Can't even visit on the porch cause them bullies be tryna score
And look he's be wanting more to play around in the playground.
Instead they gather, stay down and pray it's safe inside that door.
But it ain't fun when they got the guns up, put 'em down. In chiraq they're rather be a shooter and look like a clown.
That you're family was so crazy, young girls keep having babies.
Mama said, they grind, they weak, lost their baby to the streets.
I'ma pray everyday to get my family out the hood x2
Gotta make sure my brother keep his head inside that book x2
'Cause where I'm from, in the streets your life can get took x2
In Chiraq they hanging police lights in every hood x2
Well my second friend went down
When I was 21, 21 years of age x2
Well one thing I could say about that boy,
Oh he better pray
Well my blues are allright if there's someone left to play the game x2
And all my friends are going,
And Things just don't seem the same
Oh things just don't seems the same baby
Born in Chiraq
