rate meIntro- Nigga, Fuck Iz U Talkin Bout
(Lloyd) Mmmmm hey cumin from where im from (im from)
(Ja) Kids get killed in ghettos shot up ova over the carmello while their mommas at home tears hitting the pillow reverand in the middle of a sermaneded funeral shed a tear coz he lost his son the same way a year ago its the same ego spiritual we thuggin in harmony they say death brings life in exchange no robbery if im wrong then pardon me just tired of poverty why them niggaz in the hood never hit the lottery unless they go lottery first round in the draft coz we dustin off them rounds and slippin them mags slip on them masks and go out and mash and we call it feeding our family u call it a tragedy damn how i can just kill a man watch his blood flow like a river and rinse his blood off my hands if u hearin me speak please lord give me a chance and forgive me for my sins coz we clings where im from..
(Loyd - Chorus) Me and my niggaz ride even when the sun dont shine n its cold outside im never runnin 2 hide some niggaz hate it but i cant be faded coz i done made it steady strugglin 2 strive to find my way out these ghetto streets of mine its cumin from where im from im from we all walk back in line
(Ja)Everybody know that everybody so nobody can hide from beef its why im not surpised these kids be killed on the streets look how these animals eat tahts how they talk about us while they sit here joke n laugh puttin the choke around us can i get a moment of silence coz they claimin its the murderers causin all the violence but what about the ones protect and serve in honour poppin that blue collar with shots in the wind to follow the ghettos in horror coz edna's boy shot one back and now the neighbourhoods hot they cant move the crack but its all about dollars and he'll eventually get murdered because money is power but then the snitches get talkin and caught within hours cuffed and cryin on the bus headin straight to the island he was only 13 then trialed as an adult in the highest of courts because aint no more children of the ghetto where im from..
(Loyd - Chorus) Me and my niggaz ride even when the sun dont shine n its cold outside im never runnin 2 hide some niggaz hate it but i cant be faded coz i done made it steady strugglin 2 strive to find my way out these ghetto streets of mine its cumin from where im from im from we all walk back in line
