Back Where I'm From - Slaine

I feel like I made it

Tell me my happy be lated

She be gone since '05 but I’m still her favorite

Faded got that blame mapped out I ain’t perfect yet

But I’m numb to a dumb off that perk set

Work that stress for I won’t let that bullshit bug me

They screamin fuck me but they clowns no Crusty

Diamonds sharp these rappers slash big fans

The best that ever will be

Hitman heart got a kick stand

I’ma hold you up

When you fall in south Boston raise a soldier on

I stay fly but these days I be broke as fuck

Cigarettes smoke filling got me hopeless but

I never quit I promise, I swear

To God this everything I ever wanted as long as I’m alive

I’ma concentrate who gavel hate

Sponsored by the hate

But broads see you buy Boston broken hearts

Slaine talk to them

(Hook)

Things will never be the same again I was told once

And I don’t like the new songs as much as the old ones

I’m back to the place where I’m from

I can still remember back to the days I was young

This is the place where stars are born

Where stars are born

This is the place where stars are born

Where stars are born

(Verse 2)

I’m just trying to get what I deserve

But the life is what you bargain for

I got the nerve to want to be living good

Got a call from the bottom up

I’m tryin' to be the lucky squirrel that got a nut

Been on tour got bit travel then I got stuck

I spent the money on working bills and I got back

My chick left she didn’t believe she thought I’d lose

I didn’t sing the blues now I got something to prove

If I got to shove the shit I gotta get mine

Then I’ma get times with her or not I spit rhymes

Cops harassing 'cause I’m an narc black

Looking like an assassin and I’m just puffing grass

My dream is for my seats and never be on that street shit

Or having that beef shit or carve by police shit

I never sleep with the wife the cats that I eat with

Speaking of cats I got stripes like heathcliff

(Hook)

Things will never be the same again I was told once

And I don’t like the new songs as much as the old ones

I’m back to the place where I’m from

I can still remember back to the days I was young

This is the place where stars are born

Where stars are born

This is the place where stars are born

Where stars are born

(Verse 3)

I’m back home from 208 back to my life at home

Worldwide for months speaking raps from a microphone

Living on the road bags pack with my wife at home

But she couldn’t take it no more, now my wife is gone

They say I never make or dissagre with them

All the dot they threw on them is really only feeding them

He had a hunger and a passion ye he had a need in them

Jimmy swear me for them honey just don’t deed again

But I said that I will make it ye I made a good call

You are hating on the side praying that I would fall

Mom’s knew it was in me since I stood a foot tall

Had the heart and I would brawl since I could crawl

I just want to grow see my son playing football

I just wanna lay my head in the place I could call home

I’m back to the place where I’m from

I can still remember back to those days I was young

(Hook)

Things will never be the same again I was told once

And I don’t like the new songs as much as the old ones

I’m back to the place where I’m from

I can still remember back to the days I was young

This is the place where stars are born

Where stars are born

This is the place where stars are born

Where stars are born
