Where I’m From

Lyrics

[Verse 1] I bill it backwards in the park on my jack jones This old guy sitting on the bench playing the saxophone I found a discreet bush and hid my crack stones Took the battery out, I think I've got a tapped phone Man, I thank God my big brothers back home You my blood, you my flesh, you my back bone Brown paper bag round the bottle that the yac's on No chase, straight to the face, I am that gone But I'ma last don, my back's strong I'm Mr. Miyagi and you just Dan-Son Cah I just take your wax off, I put my wax on And tell a lie, I think I've never made a wack song Smooth criminal, I get my Jacks on Still vanishing packs, I gets my trap on I don't need to hop out the bed to turn my swag on So every other day they say "Where you get that Youngs?!" [Chorus] But let me tell you where I'm from Broad day they catch bodies with the lights on You can make a couple bags before the night's done Where I'm from, where I'm from But let me tell you where I'm from Broad day they catch bodies with the lights on You can make a couple bags before the night's done Where I'm from, where I'm from [Verse 2] It's been a few years I seen a lot of niggas dying Like, God strike me down if I'm lying Couple riders came through sparking their irons Couldn't straighten out Youngs he gots the heart of a lion You're talking kinda hard but you're lying 'Cos you ain't flipping no hard on your line But me? I'm a grafter, I'm grinding Any way, shape or form so I last through the times that I weren't Rap money now, I turn my bars into dimes like Pass me the mic, don't pass me the nine then Write me a cheque yeah right on the line 'Cos you ain't never gonna see a shine brighter than mine I go hard, any time, every time Every verse, every book, every line, every rhyme For every hood, every slum, every block, everyone This is Tef, this is Youngs, I'ma rep til I'm gone! [Chorus] But let me tell you where I'm from Broad day they catch bodies with the lights on You can make a couple bags before the night's done Where I'm from, where I'm from But let me tell you where I'm from Broad day they catch bodies with the lights on You can make a couple bags before the night's done Where I'm from, where I'm from
