Where I’m From Lyrics - Singles - Wally Boy Wonder

Practice talk about practice 

Skills sharp just like a cactus 

Streets'll knock you from your axis 

Ski Mask and gun scare tactics 

One not hosted by Mor' Tracy 

Neighbors choke held by Hoy' Gracie 

Bodies pile up stench of John Gacy 

Kidnaps like William H. Macy 

In that movie with the guy Donny 

In the Bowski with Dude 

Cats need to eat so get food 

The economy 

Burning fire street fuel 

Mr. Prez we need more peace 

People vanish in the streets 

We need the crime to slow and cease 

To diminish, murders to decrease 

More gangs like the T-Birds in Grease 

Go ahead and race your whip 

Roll slow like the Blimp 

Street war Gaza Strip 

Protect yours guard ship 

(Chorus) 

Peoples being robbed for crumbs 

Where I'm From 

What has our town become 

Where I'm From 

Cats crazy, young and dumb 

Where I'm From 

It happens everywhere 

We're not the only one 

Used to be the place to chase dreams 

Now littered with schemes and screams 

Glocks shine and gleams and reign king 

Then birds sing then cops sting 

Through The Park after dark 

Avoid at all cost or catch a spark 

From the street sharks 

Rhyme and meet Mark 

Embark on Noah's Ark 

What happened to society? 

Villains in different varieties 

I can't take the anxiety 

Fuck the sobriety 

Low income housing bought up 

Cause cats were getting shot up 

Havin' their blood clot up 

It hard not to get caught up 

In a life of crime and grime 

A street rhyme 

Stop taking down our rims and nets 

Lookin at gyms as threats 

Not enough to do for the kids on the block 

But gunplay and sellin' rock 

No knock 

So they push in with a stolen glock 

And pop 

(Chorus) 

We're not the only one 

(Chorus) 

Peoples get shot and stabbed 

Where I'm From 

Peoples get nabbed and grabbed 

Where I'm From 

Chicks get choked and gagged 

Where I'm From 

Trains get popped and tagged 

Where I'm From 

Kids running up on porches 

Where I'm From 

Push in with their torches 

Where I'm From 

Bullets on sale they're cheap 

Where I'm From 

I'm wide awake I can't sleep 

Where I'm From
