Where I'm From

(album: Jackboy 2 - 2021)

Grew up around drug dealers and killers
I done made it up out a city where those niggas don't ever show no type of love
I done learnt the game from the best
I'm trying to go when it's time to step
I ain't go to school I got this knowledge from the thugs
Where I'm from
It's killed or be killed
No, I can't tell you what to do but if I was you I'd probably always keep my gun
In the slums, this shit get real
I can't trust nobody no more nowadays, that's cos niggas be killing just for fun

I don't put my trust in man, I put my trust in guns
Don't think I got it on me that boy gotta be dumb
Don't think I got it on me that boy gotta be foolish
Aim for his head, Ima bust his brain and leave him clueless
Aim for his head, Ima bust his brain and leave him dead
And I'm not getting no sleep till I get him for what he said
And I'm not getting no sleep, I'm creeping where he stay
When I shoot this bitch I bet I make all the neighbours wake

Grew up around drug dealers and killers
I done made it up out a city where those niggas don't ever show no type of love
I done learnt the game from the best
I'm trying to go when it's time to step
I ain't go to school I got this knowledge from the thugs
Where I'm from
It's killed or be killed
No, I can't tell you what to do but if I was you I'd probably always keep my gun
In the slums, this shit get real
I can't trust nobody no more nowadays, that's cos niggas be killing just for fun

I can't trust nobody, I done got crossed up by my friends
These niggas be playing for keeps, they hate to see me win
The difference between us is I'll never sell my soul
I'm 10 toes down, I'd rather grind until I blow
I'm 10 toes down, I done shot way up here from the bottom
Run around with a dick inside this Glock, you cannot rob him
All ready to earn his stripes, he tryna go kill
[?]

Grew up around drug dealers and killers
