Homie the streets know I wear my gun [Sha Stimuli] We so backwards, that we measure the realness of a city by how many get k**ed in I was a born in a building where I saw the most wonderful children Growin' up wit d** and drama instilled in and I'm still here Braggin' callin' Brooklyn crazy is my home Where you can get shot for an iPhone Reachin' 25 is a milestone We love to say we come from a wild zone The flatline sound like a dialtone It's sad but it's true Ol' Dirty ba*tard comepared it to a Zoo We already knew if you escaped crack and h**n the folks wanna mug you You didn't sell to feed ya self, then the hood ain't gon' love you You made it out and went to college all you do is gon' say "f** you" You get some chips and push ya whip or two they prolly gon' slug you You can't win, I don't step wit no s** But I'm pressed to protect where I rest in my head low [Tha Advocate] Geah, ayo welcome to the East Coast where you keep ya heat close If you wonder bout there bread they might squeeze toast G's quote a street oath to live by and keep close Streets leaked wit needles and kilos Of cheap dope, we need hope, but see yo There's somethin' about being broke That makes you appreciate the little things that be so Minimized our bitter lives, makes us epitomize Bigger rides and cribs wit five floors full of sh** we buy Look at my life, look thru my gla**es Look at my past - it's littered wit bad sh** But sh** whose isn't? Stress infects the city If you bare your arms you'll see Ess** is grizzly Me, Stat, Lou, Sha, Priest and Willy Doitall, Mr. PRobz made an anthem like a milli Chant if you feel me, cuz Jersey is in the building This is where the f** I'm from, now bring in the singing (Hook) Mr. Probz 4x
