(Lloyd Banks)
I'm from New York City
Eyes on the prize
Dodging the worm
I'll fry your head like a project perm
Bullets burn
My right hands in the urn
How the hell did I deserve to be placed in a situation with nobody's concern
Cursed the coward that's bragin and didn't clap they mark
He deserve a beating faster than a fat mans heart
I play my part well respected
Every minute every second
You'll put a dent in your budget bookin me for a record

(50 Cent)
In my hood when you young
You taught to handle your biz nigga
Coming from where I'm from, where I'm from
Stick up kids will run up in your mamma's crib nigga
Comin' from where I'm from where I'm from
Oh this is some lil shit niggas 'll split ya fuckin weave nigga
Comin' from where I'm from where I'm from
Expect the convesary when your ass doin' your bid nigga
Comin' where I'm from where I'm from

(Young Buck)
Cashville is what I call home
Just know when to call on
It's every man for himself
I come from the bottom
I bend a nigga behind the trigga and bend in front of the bullet
But where I'm from we don't think about it we pull it
Crips and bloods in Cali got these country niggas bangin'
Ain't no more hangin'
Nigga what shit is u claimin'
Round here money ain't comin' like it used to be
Cuz these teens in killin' fiends over half a g

In my hood when you young

Comin' from where I'm from where I'm from
Oh this is some lil shit niggas 'll split ya fuckin weave nigga
Comin' from where I'm from where I'm from
Expect the convesary when your ass doin' your bid nigga
Comin' where I'm from where I'm from

(The Game)
West side compton motherfuckers

Purple haze I get high
Weather I be fat i'm ready to ride
Allstar game no come outside
