My Place

[Verse 1 - Herb McGruff]
Yo, it's a dog eat dog world and cash rules
I van bicks who flash jewels
Survival of the fittest; gotta blast tools
'Cause everyday, somebody dyin'
Gruff keep the iron, families cryin'
It's a jungle; I'm the hungry lion
And on the corners I just lay, waitin' on a prey
"Hey, yo, give it up, pull else I'm gonna spray"
Gruff ain't jokin', gimmie your paychecks in tokens
And the first mouth that opens is the first one that I'm smokin'
A menace to the street and I stay packin' heat
I gotta do dirt to eat until I get on my feet
Ayo I heard it from many, "You ain't gon' live to see 20"
'Specially this old man named Benny, robbed his ass of every penny
Whatever I do, yo I'm a prophet, that's logic
When I just spent time in Spofford over some stolen car shit
Been to jail; back and forth for sellin' base
The fast life; I got a taste
'Cause I got caught up in My Place

[Hook x2 - Herb McGruff]
"Come on over to My Place"
This how it is in the ghetto
Homicides from rappin'
Drug trafficking; McGruff rapid

[Verse 2 - Herb McGruff]
Where I'm from, yo it's everything, just call it
Crackheads, con artists there's hookers, buddah heads and alcoholics
How I survive? I got my muthafuckin' 9-5
Nigga's heads give up the bread
Don't got no time to jive
Herb McGruff don't take no shorts nigga
So what you want nigga?
"What?" yeah, just like I thought nigga
Ayo McGruff is a sole survivor, chumps I cold devour
Givin' freak bitches golden showers
Been runnin' wild since a child livin' foul
Me and my pals on the corner guzzlin' 40s, smokin' owls
Pumpin' rock on my block around the clock
Niggas be gettin' knocked
That's why I always got the Glock cocked
Fuck that, McGruff strapped
A nigga start to buck; Imma buck back
And peel his fuckin' duck cap
It'll be another nigga who got waste'
Left lyin' on his face
'Cause shit be happenin' in My Place

[Hook x2 - Herb McGruff]
"Come on over to My Place"
This how it is in the ghetto
Homicides from rappin'
Drug trafficking; McGruff rapid

[Verse 3 - Herb McGruff]
I run with 'get money' niggas and murderers
Stick-up kids and burglars, if you ain't real; I'm Herbin' ya
Shit is real in my urban town, I stay steady servin' rounds
And show these clowns how Herb get down
Foes step, but yo they turn into a dyin' bunch
My murder scenes be gross kid, red like Hawaiian punch
Where I'm from? Yeah come actin' dumb
You'll get stuck like some gum and left stinkin' like a bum
The Harlem Thug; I'm known for pumpin' slugs in niggas mugs
Slingin' crazy drugs and to my people; I show love
Word to mother, Giuliani want a nigga like Herb to suffer
The mayor I show no love for: fuck that muthafucka
The Gruff-ster: robbin' bitches for their fuckin' clusters
Around my way in alleyways homicides be findin' busters
You got no wins, so why base? I like how the lye taste
When we get puffed up in My Place

[Hook]
"Come on over to My Place"
