Where I'm From

Yeah
Nineteen sixty six
Once again here we go with them OG's
Yeah

I'm livin in da south but I'm from the west
The place that I come from it's the best
And every time I set foot in town
Hey
There will be smiles around
If you know like I know
You know
Denver's where I'm from

I used to wake up on the eastside
Better known as the c side
Look in the closet then I decide
Then I take a shower then I take a ride
Up to the Park Hill
Where both my baby mamas chilled
That's where the Bloods be so real
Mess around and get yo ass killed
In Aurora or in Montbello
As a kid I used to play in the ditches
On Colfax Ave
First place I seen a car with some switches

If you know like I know
Denver's where I'm from

Mommas house was a block from City Park
At the golf course we used to spark after dark
Mikey Dread that's my man
Yeah, plus he also is a strain
The black hole's up the street from Red Shield
It was Crips there you can cap peeled
I go to Howards and cop me a bottle
Then go pull a Colorado model

If you don't know
Let me tell you now
Cause you need to know
Denver's where I'm from

Denver known as the Mile High City
Where even the hood looks pretty
Montbello, Park Hill to the eastside
Are the spots
Where I used to reside
City Park on Saturdays to chill
The hilltop is where I used to deal
Can't forget about the city made of bricks
The projects didn't take no shit
The Five Points have a whole lotta history
From the Pig Ear Stand to chicken from Kapri

If you don't know
Ohh
Let me just tell you
Denver's where I'm from

House of Soul, M&D's and Brown Sugars
Are the places where I used to go to dinner
Tnt, Normans, and The Box
Are the spots where I used to rock
Saturdays there was nothing greater
Than watchin movies at The Crest Theater
These are the things I can remember
Damn it was great growin up in Denver

That's where I'm from
That's where I'm from yeah
That's where I'm from
That's where I'm from yeah
That's where I'm from
That's where I'm from yeah
Woo that's where I'm from
Yeah yeah yeah
Woo woo woo
