Where I'm From

[Intro]

DJ on the beat, so it's a banger

[Verse]

I grew up with all my niggas (All my niggas), 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 the store (We was at the store), folks gettin' fifty

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

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

I done lost niggas, all I got is pictures, I don't give no ****, 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, you can't game me

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

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

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

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

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

Now I'm on the overtied on the deck with niggas I don't even know

And nigga, 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 bootcamp 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 nigga I call was Duke

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

He said, "Shit, nigga, it's shoot"
