That's where I'm from
That's where I'm from

Back in the hub we used to drop madel, contemplate in hell
The stories I could tell would freak your mind and wreck your brain
The thoughts I would have would drive most insane
The band playin', "Rain gettin' down wit' Jimmy Hendrix, and Page"
Make up the rage, back in the Huddle
McLou's back yard, me and D was starvin'
And times were hard, Danny used to roll through

Schemin' on the hustle, credit cards and slang
M..MC bangin', Lethal used to come with his reel to reel
We didn't have no deal but that wasn't the point
We'd rock a funky joint then we'd rock another
The only thing to eat was some bread and peanut butter
Back to all the females that beded me
In case you ever wondered they didn't forget me
These are the times that I always think of
And this is dedicated to the ones I love

That's where I'm from
Where're you goin' if you don't look back
What's the use of havin' ends
If you lose all your friends

That's where I'm from
Where're you goin' if you don't look back
What's the use of havin' ends
If you lose all your friends

That's where I'm from
Where're you goin' if you don't look back
What's the use of havin' ends
If you lose all your friends

That's where I'm from
Where're you goin' if you don't look back
What's the use of havin' ends
If you lose all your friends

Paintin' on the wall, ten years gone by
Playin' on the stereo with the volume kinda low
Scheme Team's comin', bring me along
We gonna throw a hut party til' the break of dawn
With the Soul poppin', that's Soul Poetry
Chameleon playin' bringin' wit' that team

Bring a tab and a 40 and a bag of weed
That's all I need G 'cuz I ain't Freaky
Trippin' for days, runnin' the maze
Goin' down to Venice, sippin' on the Guinness
These are the times that I always think of
And this is dedicated to the ones I love

That's where I'm from
Where're you goin' if you don't look back
What's the use of havin' ends
If you lose all your friends

Now times have changed and I'm on tour
And I don't see my friend every day no more
And 'cuz they don't see me they think I've changed
But I'm the same motherf**ker no doubt
What's it all about, I thought we was people

I'm tryin' to get mine, I thought you had my back
Man, I can't understand, they used to slap my hand
Ask me for a grand and run wit' your man
Behind my back and diss me
If you wanna f**k me first ya gotta kiss me

That's where I'm from
Where're you goin' if you don't look back
What's the use of havin' ends
If you lose all your friends

That's where I'm from
Where're you goin' if you don't look back
What's the use of havin' ends
If you lose all your friends

That's where I'm from
Where're you goin' if you don't look back
What's the use of havin' ends
If you lose all your friends
