where im from..


im from harsh days and cold nights, being home befor the city lights.

im from where being strong wasnt an option, its what was needed to survive.

im from streets of gunplay with lessons learned.

im from the struggle, the down time, the deep dive.

im from where money came easy but came with its own price to pay.

im from the take over of Territory just to make a buck.

im from the blood, sweat and tears of trying to make it.

im from big down falls to big come ups.

im from where trust is hard to find and even harder to keep.

im from where you watch your back because the streets are watching.

im from.........the Concrete jungle.
