[VERSE: Kris Kasanova] We all came from the belly of the beast Few of my peeps just wanted to run the streets Gun in reach Trouble find those who seek Just another funeral, by the end of the week Lord.. Preachers preach Mama's weep Hand upon her shoulder Like be strong you can't be weak I known him since the third grade Now he's six feet deep Tears rolling down my eyes As my grandmama speak Trials and tribulations sh** I'm trying to keep the devil waiting Heart racing as I'm reading revelations Will I make it Before those shots fire Or will they do me like how they did Tyler Only God knows I'm just tryna stay the f** up out the ghetto Hold my son tight I swear to God I'll never let go My hood's concerned About a top five I'm just tryna stay alive And stay the f** up off of Fox 5 [HOOK: American Fly Boy] (What's going on) Ooh, Lord knows I tired But everybody just tryna survive Where I'm from (What's going on) The blind leading the blind (Ahhh) What's costing me for a crime Where I'm from Somebody tell me what's going on Try living where I'm from Somebody tell me what's going on Where I'm from [VERSE 2: Klover Field] Why I'm still feeling alone Maybe it's Because I lost my moms at twelve years old And I ain't know What the Lord had to unfold I turn to the street My closes homie packing the heat Still was in school I thought catching jux sh** was cool Creeping me out Because I knew my mother would dealt The things that I did For a little kush and a blouse Blaming my pops For everything I did on the block Loading up shots Even putting dope in my socks Screaming f** the cops, they but Dee in a box Never forgive 'em Give 'em every one of my feelings n***as is snakes Shake your hand and hiss on your face What is Life becoming Most of my peers See Friends and guns Or bullets and gear Never do fear Drinking henny Don't be aware The hood is Full of situations that can cause tears I really don't know If I could help with my grandma Loving my sister Asking God if he has answers Breaking the law Quite chilling, round of applause Audio calm So I know my vocals are strong What is a top five? When all you guys Talk about change, chicks, and the cars that you drive Open your mind Hoping here that I redefined The way that we live And get the kids all on the grind [HOOK] Just tryna... Survive... Where I'm from... Where I'm from... Where I'm.... What's going on.. Tell me what's going on
