Where i'm from Chords

Lyrics & chords

[Verse 1]
[Em]
[B]Hey[C], comin' from where I'm from,
I'm [Em]from[B]
[C]Oh yeah, oh [Bm]yeah

[Verse 2]
Kids [Em]get killed in ghettos,
shot up over the car Limos
While they mom was at home,
tears [B]hittin' the pillow
Where [C]women in the middle
in a seminal funereal
Shed a tear 'cause he lost his son the
same way a [Em]year ago

[Verse 3]
It's the same ego spiritual,
we thuggin' in harmony
They say, "Death brings life,
there ex[B]change no robbery"
If [C]I'm wrong pardon me,
I'm just tired of poverty
Why them niggaz in the hood
never [B]hit the lot[Bm]tery

[Verse 4]
Unless [Em]they go lottery,
first round in the draft
First we dustin' off the rounds
and we [B]slip in the mag'
Then we slip [C]on the masks and go
out and mash
And we call it feeding our family,
y'all call [Em]it a tragedy, damn

[Verse 5]
How I could just kill a man? Watch [Em]his blood
flow like a river
then rinse [Bm]his blood off of my [C]hand
If you hearing me speak please Lord
give me a chance
Please forgive me of my sins 'cause
we [B]cleansed where I'm from

[Verse 6]
[Em]Me and my niggaz ride
Even when the sun don't shine
[B]and it's cold outside
[C]Never run in or hide 'cause
some niggaz hate it
But I can't get faded 'cause I
done made [Em]it

[Verse 7]
Instead of struggling or strive Survive [Em]my weight
how these
ghetto [Bm]streets [C]of mine
This is coming from where I'm from,
I'm from
We all walk back in line

[Verse 8]
Now everybody know [Em]that everybody said,
"Nobody can hide from beef
Except but us, who surprised when these kids
get [Bm]killed on the street[B]s"
Look how [C]these animals eat that's
how they talk 'bout us
While they shed they joke and
laugh puttin' a choke round [Em]us

[Verse 9]
Can I get a moment of silence?
'Cause they claimin' it's the murderers
that's causin' all the [B]violence
What 'bout the [C]ones that protect
to serve our honor
Poppin' the blue colla' with shots
soon to [Bm]fol low

[Verse 10]
The ghettos [Em]in horror 'cause in
this boy shot went back
And now the neighborhood hot and he can
[B]'t move the crack
When it's [C]all about the dollars
And he'll individually get murdered
'cause money is power
But then these snitch's get to [Em]talking and it's colder

[Verse 11]
than ours
Cuffed and crimed on the bus
heading straight to the Island
He was only [C]13 but tried us in the dope
and as high as the coast
Because ain't no more children
in the [B]ghetto where [Bm]I'm from

[Verse 12]
[Em]Me and my niggaz ride
Even when the sun don't shine
[B]and it's cold [C]outside
Never run in or hide 'cause
some niggaz hate it
But I can't get faded 'cause
[Em]I done made it

[Verse 13]
Instead of struggling or strive Survive [Em]my weight
how these
ghetto [B]streets [C]of mine
This is coming from where I'm from,
I'm from
[Bm]We all walk back in line

[Verse 14]
We ain't all [Em]killers in prison
Matter fact that's a stereo
typical thought of livin'
'Cause they don't [B]know about
the hood and them [C]love in it
Summer time top down
with the wood finish
Pushin' hard, [Em]up town windows

[Verse 15]
slightly tinted
Back to back Benz and jeeps,
blowin' weed with my niggaz
On our way [B]to a house party,
gonna fuck [C]with some bitchs
Let's get some liquor for shorty
who said she make us some chicken
And if we [B]get 'em drunk [Bm]enough We prob

[Verse 16]
[Em]
ably could freak 'em
and do it every other weekend
If I don't have to kill niggaz, I
[B]never would leave the ghetto
[C]I'm like an angel that put on a halo
Cradle the grave of my niggaz that we
lost in the ghetto
[Em]'Cause where

[Verse 17]
I'm from in the ghetto
we rock white tee's and Nike's
Roll 3 dice and [B]name our dope ice cream
[C]Set trends and y'all follow our lead
But in New Yitti niggaz follow they dream[B]s,
where [Bm]I'm from

[Verse 18]
[Em]Me and my niggaz ride
Even when the sun don't
shine [B]and it's cold outside
[C]Never run in or hide 'cause
some niggaz hate it
But I can't get faded 'cause
I [Em]done made it

[Verse 19]
Instead of struggling or strive Survive [Em]my
weight how these
ghetto [Bm]streets of mine
[C]This is coming from where I'm from,
I'm from
We [Bm]all walk back in [Em]line
Now I lay me [B]down and sleep And

[Verse 20]
[C]
I pray for the Lord, my soul to keep
If I should die before I wake
[Em]Pray to the Lord, my soul to take,
[B]yeah[Em][C]
Pray for the Lord, my [B]soul [Bm]to ta[Em]ke,[Bm][B]
[C]
[Em]oh, oh yeah
[Bm][Em][C]
[Bm]

[Verse 21]
[Em]Me and my niggaz ride
Even when the sun don't shine
[B]and it's cold outside
[C]Never run in or hide 'cause
some niggaz hate it
But I can't get faded
[Em]'cause I done made it

[Verse 22]
Instead of struggling or strive Survive [Em]my weight
how these
ghetto [Bm]streets of mine
[C]This is coming from where I'm from,
I'm from
We all walk back in line
