Where I Come From

(album: Preacher To The Streets - 2019)

Exotic
Look, huh
It's a lot of niggas dying where I come from
A lot of mamas crying where I come from
I'm just tryna make it out of here

Look, it's a lot of niggas dying where I come from
It's a lot of mamas crying where I come from
I'm just tryna make it out of here, huh
You might not wanna reside where I come from
It's a lot of homicides where I come from
My dawgs tryna make it out of jail
Man, look

My dawgs tryna make it out of jail
I'm dancing with the devil, tryna make it out of Hell
I'm hurting on the inside, on the out, I'm doing well
'Bout to OD on this codeine, got me moving like a snail
Give me a hundred plus, I ain't gon' tell
Hate it when I'm up, they loved it when I fail
Bitch, I'm ready to lay down, where my cell?
Niggas showing fake love, that ain't real
Where I'm from showing love'll get you killed
I know that but sometimes I still will
I pray to God my heart don't get me in a body bag
But Lord knows I'm so tired of shedding tears, Peezy

It's a lot of niggas dying where I come from
It's a lot of mamas crying where I come from
I'm just tryna make it out of here
Man, you might not wanna reside where I come from
It's a lot of homicides where I come from
My dawgs tryna make it out of jail
Look, hey

It's a lot of niggas dying where I come from
If I wasn't from there, I wouldn't reside where I come from
City too small, so you can't hide where I come from
In your city crack dead, but it's alive where I come from
Violence where I come from
Bodies piling where I come from
13 and wilding, they ain't childish where I come from
Like you stuck on an island, can't get out of where I come from
It's crabs in a bucket, they ain't united where I come from
If a nigga try me then he dying on the same day
I don't feel no pressure, no expression, it's the same face
Promise you go crazy if you swerve in my lane, ayy
I don't run to the police, if I murk you, act the same way, Peezy

It's a lot of niggas dying where I come from
It's a lot of mamas crying where I come from
I'm just tryna make it out of here
Man, you might not wanna reside where I come from
It's a lot of homicides where I come from
My dawgs tryna make it out of jail
Hey
