Where I'm From (What It Means To Be King 2022)

Текст песни King Von - Where I'm From (What It Means To Be King 2022)

(DJ on the beat, so it's a banger)

I grew up with all my niggas (all my niggas), in them buildings
Low income, roaches on ceilings (roaches on ceilings), man, y'all don't get it
If I had a dollar, we was at the sto' (we was at the sto'), folks get 50
We was so close when we was dead broke, now I got a million, nigga, I'm gon' split it

They say, "Von, why you trippin'?" Nigga, watch out, mind yo' business
I done lost niggas, all I got is pictures, I don't give no fuck, I don't got no feelings
I was 17 locked up in the cell, got word they just killed O
I was confused, O was the G.O.A.T., how they kill him, and he stayed with his pole?

Now I'm just doin' my time, can't get bruh out my mind, I'm goin' crazy
I called Sherod one time 'cause I saw the news, and somebody ain't make it
Can't be us, they mistaken, I asked folks, his voice shakin'
He switched the subject, tried to change it, but I'm not slow, you can't game me

I'm like, "Who?" He like, "Nigga, what?" I'm like, "Who got shot?"
He like, "Fuck," I'm like, "Nigga, what?" He say, "That's our boy J.R"
My heart stopped, and I'm confused 'cause J.R, he a leader
How the fuck you gon' die on us, nigga? O just died, we need you

Now I'm over tired on the deck with niggas I don't even know
And nigga, I over-cried, can't lie, I'm gangsta, but that shit hurt
J Money was in there with me too, we was sick, but we ain't have the flu
We was jammed up, ain't shit we can do, then he beat his case, J Money actin' a foo'

Now I'm in boot camp by now, I'm comin' home at the right time
Sosa goin' crazy, got the city on lock now, O'Block, bitch, we hot now
I get out on house arrest, first nigga I call was Duke
He say, "Shit, what you want?" I say, "Shit, bitch, what's new?"
He say, "Shit, nigga, it's you"
