Love It Here - eLZhi, Slum Village

But I love it here,

Just think if I wasn’t here

My uncles and cousins here,

My struggles and come-ups here

We sense the trouble near

You bubble, we double dare

… The block is ours and we don’t wanna share.

Feel my pain like it was yours

Crack addicts bustin' right through my doors

Bleedin' on my lawn, I’m destined to be great

I swear gypsy could read it on my palm tipsy

I’m calm and I blow up like Vietnam bomb history

I lost my moms but no drug abuses beyond 50

Sign of the times twist me 'til I’m found dizzy

My punished and my blood from all the pimps that birth me

Even when I was broke, I was wearing new kicks and jerseys

I live among the sick and scurvy

'Til this day they can suck a dick that’s dirty

With symptoms of burning piss with pearly puss

My words are just emotional

Spoken from the bottom of the totem pole

I gotta get a grip, like a rope with an open hole that’s chokeable

On a throat that hold a vocal tone

My niggas push coke with no discussion on the mobile phone

Just hold the chrome… they know it’s on

… Yeah

(Talking)

Yeah.

For real.

Real talk right there…

Drive-by's, windows bust out, bullets put in the lawn chairs

From a block over, soundin' like Lil Jon snares

Life’s gotten colder I’m revealin' the smurf

How’s hustlin' not a job when you feel you at work?

My momma told me to keep my brain in them books

I grew up learnin' only way you earnin' is becoming famous or crooks

And since schools never taught us to be entrepreneurs

And we don’t have patience to make money off of computers

We live a fast life (fast life) with officers and shooters

Get scars, strip bars with broads taped bras off of their hooters

Such an ugly game, why it look beautiful from afar?

You in prison wishin' they were removin' you from the bars
