"WHERE I'M FROM" lyrics
T.I. & Anderson .Paak Lyrics
Come and go with me
Head-first into the drama
Belly of the beast
Follow me to where I'm from
They say the money gon' change me
Fuck 'em all. I'll never be the same then
They wanna keep me in my lane
But hell nah. I took a different angle
They say the feds gon' cage me
How so? I look good on papers
They taking shot at the kingdom
Shit! I can't blame 'em
And if God don't take me
Bullets only graze 'em
Fire don't burn me
Nerves unshaken
The critics don't faze me
Wolves done grazed me
Pirellis stay turning
And the curbs can't break me
Living so foul, I can hardly breathe
Dreams in the clouds, I can hardly reach
Fall asleep to the sirens
Non-stop violence
Body bags piling
You know where to find me
Where I'm from
From the residue
Raised in the cocaine
Built to be recession-proof
Product of the dope game
Yeah
Where finesse rings to the shots fired
Drive-by. Minivans getting hot-wired
Since a young nigga outside eating tho fries
I been laced with the game 'fore my pops died
From where game gets ran but no games get played
Been a grown-ass man from a real young age
It's imperative
To stick to the narrative
Beware of the arrogance
Ego will make you careless
I'm from where you may as well not
Call cops, don't come
Buy a gun, same place you get your oxtails from
Nine-figure eyepiece
Trip to the Maldives
Way for selling ozs before I got an ID
Overcame the county shift
Before I ever came out
We endured pain way worse than you complain 'bout
King, where I'm from
Come and go with me
Head-first into the drama
Belly of the beast
Follow me to where I'm from
And if God don't take me
Bullets only graze 'em
Fire don't burn me
Nerves unshaken
The critics don't faze me
Wolves done grazed me
Pirellis stay turning
And the curbs can't break me
Living so foul, I can hardly breathe
Dreams in the clouds, I can hardly reach
Fall asleep to the sirens
Non-stop violence
Body bags piling
You know where to find me
Where I'm from
The red dog task force
Taught us that a lawyer
The first thing you should ask for
Same time, we learned that
Followed by foot races
Get caught
They planting dope to make good cases
I remain outside
Where the rainbows guys
And them lame hoes played to the Kangol side
That's the left right
Yup
Nigga mango sweet
Can't be running no trap
Not if they ain't your street
Where the blind lead the blind
Legacies left behind
Empires burned down
When advice turned down
From the home of the zones
Where the crowns and the thrones
Get mud thrown on 'em
When you're talking on the phone
The wrong thing said
Then you learn the hard way
When the love strong
Only mean greater heartbreaks
Goddamn
This' the home of the scandalous
The scammers, the streets is in shambles
Atlanta. Where I'm from
Come and go with me
Head-first into the drama
Belly of the beast
Follow me to where I'm from
And if God don't take me
Bullets only graze 'em
Fire don't burn me
Nerves unshaken
The critics don't faze me
Wolves done grazed me
Pirellis stay turning
And the curbs can't break me
Living so foul, I can hardly breathe
Dreams in the clouds, I can hardly reach
Fall asleep to the sirens
Non-stop violence
Body bags piling
You know where to find me
Where I'm from
Head-first into the drama
Belly of the beast
Follow me to where I'm from
They say the money gon' change me
Fuck 'em all. I'll never be the same then
They wanna keep me in my lane
But hell nah. I took a different angle
They say the feds gon' cage me
How so? I look good on papers
