Where I'm From (feat. Movie Malik)

Verse:
The innocence die young where I'm from
So many people toting guns where I'm from
Dysfunction is in the open where I'm from
Our struggle goes unnoticed where I'm from
See nowadays you have to protect your energy
If you want to avoid being a casualty
You gotta sit and meditate your mind casually
Every day I'm from there's a catastrophe
I keep this piece of mine
Just to have a peace of mind
And just in case somebody
Wants to take a piece of mine
They shorten their lifespan over lifestyles
Just to flex for a short while
Then forget that they have a child
Fucking these hoes won't fill up that hole
Consuming lean and xanax won't fulfill your soul
Hatred for your friends won't obtain your goals
I hope you hear the ancestors, weeping for your soul, whoa

Hook:
We hustle to get by where I'm from
Dodging trouble to survive where I'm from

We stand on all toes where I'm from
Sadly anything goes where I'm from

You know it ain't no trust in my city
They're doing too much in my city
So if you coming from, where I'm from
Then you should know, it ain't no love in my city

Verse #2:
So many broken dreams where I'm from
People bleed where I'm from
Not many lead where I'm from
So much envy around
It's hard to breathe where I'm from
So many want the clout
So they compete where I'm from
Having a strong mind was hereditary
It's a gift and a curse being a visionary
Hella scary
Not enough friends, too many adversaries
Mercenaries
Killing your dreams of being legendary
Hella scary
About where I'm from, I don't trust too many
Hella scary
About where I'm from, always keep a semi
Very scary
About where I'm from, all they know is gimme
Hella scary
About where I'm from, even the bitches envy
