[Verse 1]
I'm from a place weh grabba blaze
More dan weed, di shottaz brave
Bold and mean, 'K don't conceal
Gang leaders dem a pave road ask wheel
Business owners haffi pay local fee
I'm from a place weh man nuh car bout
If a kid when dem a tear out farrid
Wah mek yuh think di 12 year-old nuh live same place
Weh some man nuh care bout dem self
When it come to crotches
Him commit all suicide pon di bridge

[Verse 2]
Same place inna di ghetto weh di crime neva leff
Perilous times, desso likkle mind ever stress
Not even wata, di stand pipe neva wet
When Riverton light yuh betta try test yuh breath
I'm from a place weh market look like di worst
And a food yuh guh get
Nevertheless, ramp wid mi food then yuh dead
I'm from a place weh police neva rest
Wuleep a arrest
And all now nuh peace neva mek
[Chorus 1]
Tell mi bout it
If yuh know weh mi come from
Tell mi bout it
If yuh know weh mi come from
Tell mi bout it
If yuh ever put a foot inna di slum
Or inna di dungeon
Tell mi bout it
Talk if yuh know nut'n bout di youths dem
Weh nuh know class or know God, a lone strap
Tell mi bout it (yeah)

[Verse 3]
I'm from a place weh lack peace
Not even theif nuh like thief
But certain time di vibes sweet like when a party gwine keep
But dat a if yuh can reach cause if di place nuh mark green
Then anuh fi yuh campaign
Watch mi, as a juvi still
Think a colour separate di place
When I'm from di place weh all di baby crave power
Leaders still a fail, lead yuh to yuh grave
Do I still have a future?
Tell mi bout it (yeah)
[Verse 4]
Tell mi weh di future deh
When all di youths a dead
And all mi see a shooter from di yute weh lef'
A dats why dah youth yah youth come kill a youth again
A just suh di future set (yeah)
I'm from a place weh despise uneducated youths like dem cyaa' use talent
And then di system tek di smartest youths
Outta di ghetto and mek use a dem
And lef' di ghetto undevelop fi mek news again

[Chorus 2]
If yuh know weh mi come from
Tell mi bout it yeah
If yuh know weh mi come from
