Comin' Where I'm From - Anthony Hamilton, Jermaine Dupri, Little Clayway

Sittin' here guess I didn’t make bail

Got time and a story to tell

Started when I was nine years old

Woke up my daddy was gone

I started hustlin' they couldn’t tell me nothin'

Frontin' in the hood tryin' to be somebody

My soul was on empty

I was searchin' for something

Tried to be good, tried to keep from trouble

Livin' too fast, tryin' to make good on a hustle

Sometimes it gets rough

Comin' from where I’m from, I’m from

Times got hard

Comin' from where I’m from, I’m from

Some times you gotta walk to work, yeah

Comin' from where I’m from, I’m from

Sometimes you gotta do a little dirt

Comin' from where I’m from, I’m from

Wasn’t really lookin' guess I found it Five foot three, light brown skin

Comin' from the university

Nice style, lookin' kinda lovely

Didn’t know she had much game

Down to ride out, even take the train

Even took her to a poker game

Top notch from fried chicken to sushi

Tried to be good, tried to treat you like a lady

Tried to be a friend, turned out that you were shady

Sometimes it gets lonely

Comin' from where I’m from, I’m from

Thangs ain’t what they seem to be Comin' from where I’m from, I’m from

Sometimes you get a little angry

Comin' from where I’m from, I’m from

Sometimes you get the best of me Comin' from where I’m from, I’m from

Well, tried to be good

Wanted nothin' but to love somebody

Didn’t wanna die young

Steady hustlin' tryin' to feed my family

Too scared to have kids and do like daddy did

'Cuz I’m so scared to failin'

Sometimes it gets hard

Comin' from where I’m from

Comin' from where I’m, I’m from

(Sometimes you gotta moan)

Comin' from where I’m from, I’m from

(Sometimes you gotta cry a little bit louder)

Comin' from where I’m from, I’m from

(Sometimes you gotta fight the pain)

Comin' from where I’m from, I’m from

(Sometimes you gotta walk alone)

Comin' from where I’m from, I’m from

(Sometimes you get a little worried)

Comin from where I’m from, I’m from

(Sometimes you get lost outta touch)

Comin' from where I’m from, I’m from

(Sometimes I think I pray a little bit too much)

Comin' from where I’m from, I’m from

(Sometimes I get a little scared)

Comin' from where I’m from, I’m from

(Sometimes I get a little scared)

Comin' from where I’m from, I’m from

(Sometimes I get a little scared)

Comin' from where I’m from, I’m from

Comin' from where I’m from, I’m from
