Where I’m From

[Chorus]
I need a ticket back home
Wherever I'm from
I feel the sun burning
The cold is gone

[Verse 1]
The cold is gone and the world moves on
How you feel when you wake up and put yo' eyes on the phone
I get the beep and a tone, it's the duty that's calling
I wish I wouldn't have to answer but it's nOva that's dialling
Hit the city moving, I got no money in my pockets
Only half a pack of cigarettes but that shit won't even last me
My back hurts, my head hurts and l'm raspy
My back hurts and I hope that shit don't last me

[Verse 2]
I'm running on three hours of sleep, sit my ass down, get back up I pray then repeat
I don't pray for better days, l'm just grateful to eat
And I hope mama get to see me balling fresh out my street, the pressure's on me
And the pressure's getting bigger, atmosphere or not, I still like it when it's thicker
I mean it this time when I sit down and I look up to the sky
I see my name engraved in the stars, it's burning like fire

[Chorus]
I need a ticket back home
Wherever I'm from
I feel the sun burning
The cold is gone
I need a ticket back home
Wherever I'm from
I feel the sun burning
The cold is gone

[Verse 3]
At every chance it got life made me feel like a quitter
It made me feel like l've been doing the most, but never get into the picture when they raising a toast
I hated it most, I hated when they talked all that shit about my bros
About my lows, about my those, about my rap ability but I still went and gave 'em a show
Ain't never seen that before, eight hundred people watching, I ain't seen one who be touching the floor
Respect my code

[Verse 4]
I hope you see me, hope you see me by the end of the night
Cause I don't wanna go away but at this pace I just might
Is it burnin when you working? Is you worried it ain't working
I hope you see me, hope you see me by the end of the night
Cause I don't wanna go away but at this pace I just might
Yes, it's burning when I'm working
And yes, I'm worried when it ain't working

[Outro]
