Where I'm From

(DJ on the beat, so it's a banger)

I grew up with all my **** (All my ****) In them buildings

Low income, roaches on ceilings (Roaches on ceilings) Man, y'all don't get it

But I had a dollar, we was at the store (We was at the store) Folks gettin' fifty

We was so close when we was dead broke, now I got a million, ****, I'ma split it

They say, "Von, why you trippin'?" ****, watch out, mind your business

I done lost ****, all I got is pictures, I don't give no fuck, I don't got no feelings

I was seventeen locked up in the cell, got word they just killed O

I was confused, O was the G.O.A.T, how they killed him and he stay with his pole?

Now I'm just doin' my time, can't get bro out my mind, I'm goin' crazy

I called Sheroid one time 'cause I saw the news and somebody ain't make it

Can't be us, they mistaken, I asked folks, his voice shakin'

He switched the subject, tried to change it

But I'm not slow and you can't game me

I'm like, "Who?", he like, "****, what?"

I'm like, "Who got shot?", he like, "Fuck"

I'm like, "****, what?", he said that's our boy J.R

My heart stopped and I'm confused 'cause J.R, he a leader

How the fuck you gon' die on us, ****? O just died, we need you

Now I'm overtired, on the deck with **** I don't even know

And ****, I over cried, I can't lie, I'm a gangster but that shit hurt

J Money was in there with me, too, we was sick but we ain't had a flu

We was jammed up, ain't shit we could do

Didn't beat his case, J Money actin' a fool

Now, I'm in boot camp by now, I'm comin' home at the right time

Sosa goin' crazy, got the city on lock now

O'Block, bitch, we hot now

I get out on house arrest, first **** I call was Duke

He said, "Shit, what you on?", I said, "Shit, bitch, what's new?"

He said, "Shit, ****, it's you"
