Thats where I'm from (2x) Back in the hub we used to drop madel Contemplate in hell, the stories I could tell would freak your mind And wreck your brain, the thoughts I would have would drive most insane The band playin' Rain, gettin' down with Jimmy Hendrix and Page Make up the rage, back in the huddle of McLou's back yard Me and D was starvin' and times were hard Danny used to roll through schemin' on the hustle Credit cards and slang, MMC bangin' Lethal used to come with his reel to reel we didn't have no deal But that wasn't the point, we'd rock a funky joint Then we'd rock another, the only thing to eat was some bread and peanut butter Back to all the females that beded me in case you ever wondered They didn't forget me, these are the times that I always think of And this is dedicated to the ones I love CHORUS (4x) That's where I'm from Where're you goin' if you don't look back What's the use of havin' ends if you lose all your friends Paintin' on the wall ten years gone by Playin' on the stereo with the volume kinda low Scheme Team's comin', bring me along We gonna throw a hut party till the break of dawn With the soul poppin', thats Soul Poetry Chameleon playin' bringin' with that team Bring a tab and a 40 and a bag of weed That's all I need, G, 'cause I ain't freaky Trippin' for days, runnin' the maze Goin' down to Venice, sippin' on the Guinness These are the times that I always think of And this is dedicated to the ones I love CHORUS Now times have change and I'm on tour And I don't see my friends every day no more And 'cause they dont see me they think I've changed But I'm the same motherfucker no doubt What's it all about, I thought we was people I'm tryin' to get mine, I thought you had my back Man, I can't understand, they used to slap my hand Ask me for a grand, and run with your man Behind my back and diss me If you wanna fuck me first ya gotta kiss me CHORUS (3x)
