I'm from a place

I'm from a place where we don't see sunshine

I'm hearing sirens and it ain't even lunchtime

If you front you get left of the front line

I've seen a man drop weight in class that's a punchline

Gotta mind where you step or man will step on your mind

I conduct a risk assessment before I leave mine CRB's fire escapes

All of dem tings there I bet you can't relate uh

I'm from a place where killing is cool

I've learned more in the world than from being in school

Where you work so hard to pass a test

But the test you pass is half the test

Cause it begins on the outside
