[Chorus]
I'm from a block where you grow up wit' none
You gotta sell some dope just to get you some
Or rob your connect as soon as that product comes
This the slums, where I'm from, you can't come
My block gets wild, real wild, real wild
Mine is over here seen it calm for a while
Killers and dealers, my niggas is so versatile
I'm just tryna make it, long time since my momma smile
[Verse 1]
To feel good you gotta feel the pain
To love the sun you gotta feel the rain
I love the slums man it taught me the game
It gave me my name, I turned it to fame
Was wrapping coke, now I still rap like cocaine
This the slums nigga, bells and drums nigga
We don't sell it for funs nigga
Is you dumb nigga, you know where I'm from nigga
Can't leave my gun nigga, I rather shoot than run nigga
[Refrain]
I had to grind to get the things I need
'Cause the lifestyle that I live this shit don't come for free
See I grew up in the struggle
Move weight ain't talking muscle
All I knew was hustle 'cause
[Chorus]
I'm from a block where you grow up wit' none
You gotta sell some dope just to get you some
Or rob your connect as soon as that product comes
This the slums, where I'm from, you can't come
My block gets wild, real wild, real wild
Mine is over here seen it calm for a while
Killers and dealers, my niggas is so versatile
I'm just tryna make it, long time since my momma smile
[Verse 2]
They don't wanna see me make it out
See they shot me, tryna take me out
I'm the hottest so they hating now
I keep a gun tryna pray it out
My block gets wild, real wild, real wild
See i lost my bro he never got to see his child
Free LG he lost his trial
My right hand man gon be a while
[Refrain]
I had to grind to get the things I need
'Cause the lifestyle that I live this shit don't come for free
See I grew up in the struggle
Move weight ain't talking muscle
All I knew was hustle 'cause
[Chorus]
I'm from a block where you grow up wit' none
You gotta sell some dope just to get you some
Or rob your connect as soon as that product comes
This the slums, where I'm from, you can't come
My block gets wild, real wild, real wild
Mine is over here seen it calm for a while
Killers and dealers, my niggas is so versatile
I'm just tryna make it, long time since my momma smile
