I come from nothin', come up
I come from nothin' to get it crankin' right here
Right here? Turma-turmoil, torment and turmoil
We been in bondage for years, for how long?

Trapped up in the ghetto, yeah, that's true
Dang, I got a dream though, fiction
Tryin' to make my own progress
That's fictionary

Zoom, even though the street's mob filthy, lights burned out
(Out)
Dope fiends die with antennas in they mouth
Niggaz are starvin', some of my niggaz is havin' they cash
Niggaz is ballin', parkin' they car all on the grass

Livin' it up to the fullest
Platinum colored jewels and organized glass
Not none of that old fake ass costume jewelry
That looks like brass
I'm lookin' out the window while you play Nintendo
You drive a Navigator, I drive a Pinto

I was there, nothin' polite, me and my fools
The ghetto field mice and rat drippings up in my shoes
A rebel without a pause, commodes and stars
No toilet tissue, dirty doo doo stains up in my draws

Ooh, zoom, I like to fly far away from here
Where my mind flows on, it's fresh and clear
And I found a love that I long to see
And people who be, who they want to be, hoe

I never had lobster in my life
(Or what?)
Or Teriyaki Steaks, just sardines and Spam and cornflakes
Pacific Bell done put me on restriction once again
I can't call out but you can call in

My crackhead cousin spent the night, now we got roaches
(What we got?)
Damn, here lies my property, no composure
Six months behind on my mortgage, house under fo' closure

Momma ain't feelin' too good, she diabetic
Scared of needles, hospitals, ambulance, paramedics
And I'm the oldest of 4, sleepin' on the flo'
Watchin' TV channels we used to borrow cable from next do'

Ooh, zoom, I like to fly far away from here
Where my mind flows on, it's fresh and clear
And I found a love that I long to see
And people who be, who they want
Who they want to be, yeah

I seen it in a dream, a big white home
Looked like a office building
An old school Brougham with a sunroof ceiling
Thug living, sixty-four ounce of drinkin', thinkin'
"How could I come up and purchase me a Lincoln?"

Drug dealin', leelin' and dealin', tryin' to make a million
Blood spillin', driveby walk up to that nigga, peel him
Back then I was blind, penitentiary, chance at jail
Livin' off my gal for hella long, she worked at Taco Bell

And if the heater ain't workin' and it's freezin' cold
We open up the oven and turn on the stove
Survival, Granddaddy's appreciation revival church
Of Pentacostal, we raised money by givin' car washes

Ooh, zoom, I like to fly far away from here
Where my mind flows on, it's fresh and clear
And I found a love that I long to see
And people who be, who they want
Who they want to be, yeah, I
