Los Angeles
I'm from L.A. Mexican n***a, yeah I grew up poor
My momma and pops went to work for my family
Yeah, dangerous streets, crackheads and stabbings
N***as say I ain't from the streets, fuck you don't know me then
I done seen shit, that trauma getting to me
Money and fame, n***as blinded, they don't see the darkness
I grew up in apartments, grew up with struggles
Grew up near MacArthur Park, from the apartments I saw the U.S. Bank Tower
So beautiful, never forgetting where I came from
Grew up in 441 Hartford Avenue, didn't fit in
My first language, Spanish, they hated my accеnt
Shout out to my nana, I haven't seen her in a while
May God blеss her, she took care of me since I was a toddler
L.A. my city, I'm proud of myself, came from a dark place
Lost n***as, my heart ache
Wish my uncles and pops was here, to see me how far I've made it
They're not dead, but they're not with me
So many bitches left, I gotta move on
So many problems remain in my life
Still gotta keep climbing, watch me take over
Yeah, made it this far, I ain't going down
Hoes see me go up, hoes see me go up
I see them frowns, smoking fresh green
Sipping straight lean, sipping on alcohol
I got big dreams, I accomplished
Brand new car, I polished
New phone, no lagging
Wish my father was here, to see me how far I've made it
I ain't going down, yeah, I'ma take over
I'm from L.A, Mexican n***a, yeah, I grew up poor
My mama and pops want to work for my family
Yeah, I think we're streets, crackheads and stabbings
N***as say I ain't from the streets
Fuck you, you don't know me then
I done see shit, that trauma getting to me
Money and fame, n***as blinded
They don't see the darkness
I grew up in apartments, grew up with struggles
Grew up near MacArthur Park
From the apartments, I saw the U.S. Bank Tower
So beautiful, never forgetting where I came from
Los Angeles, my city, I say it proudly
My city so pretty, I'm proud to be from here
I be throwing W's for Westlake
Shout out to all my Mexicans
Shout out to all the Chicanos, all the Cholos, all the Locos
We are united
My momma and pops went to work for my family
Yeah, dangerous streets, crackheads and stabbings
N***as say I ain't from the streets, fuck you don't know me then
