Where I'm From
Hey, uh-huh (Hey, uh-huh)
Aye-aye, huh
Hold up brother, what you tryna tell me?
Though be careful what you say, dawg
I know people who say dumber shit
Had to hit 'em with a facepalm
Cooking heat with no apron
Reminisce the old days, dawg
I remember all the things they used to say
Pillow to my face ("Hold up, wait a minute")
"We all know what you've been through
Talk about where you came from
We don't ever hear your hometown
You don't ever wanna say nothing"
Well, I can't really say much
I was caught up in rumble (Heh)
I was in a park, I was in a valley
Now I'm caught up in the jungle (Yeah)
I know people wanna clown me, but they never wonder why I mumble (Huh)
Live the life that God gave me, that'll keep a hater humble
See, where I'm from they talk down
Make you feel like rug rat
But fuck that, don't stay down
If you have power then buck back
Hey, where I'm from (If they don't believe)
Huh, then keep your mouth shut
Hey, look what I done (I spoke about me)
Now they don't want me to stop (Yeah)
I cannot talk about all of these streets
I don't walk around, acting like I'm cool with these psychos
We do not click, fuck a switch
But at least I know I got a plan
And I watch as these dreams unfold
Can't stop my rise to the top because me Eiffel
You steady hating 'cause you're tired of me
Dino freak, you should sleep
Go and catch you some Z's
Then watch as a real one has stepped on the scene
I close my eyes and then all that I see
Is all of the people who never believed
I kill the game (Yeah, yeah)
I make it bleed
Then I walk back home and then show them my deeds
Hey, where I'm from (If they don't believe)
Huh, then keep your mouth shut
Hey, look what I done (I spoke about me)
Now they don't want me to stop
Hey, look what I done (I spoke about me)
Now they don't want me to stop
Aye-aye, huh
Hold up brother, what you tryna tell me?
Though be careful what you say, dawg
I know people who say dumber shit
