[Intro: Solomon Childs] N.G.P., Paris Crew You know... S. Childs [Solomon Childs] I'm from where dudes snitch Be back on the block, the same day Forever rep Henderson and Broadway I'm from where the guns in my hood firing From where they slap box foreign From where the pigs don't go From where you can't get a fair one Every apartment, got atleast one gun From where the average sucker, don't come From where they mix Hypnotiq with the Hennessey From where the extortion game move heavenly From where a cat don't care who your family is But got to make sure you handle your biz But seriously, I'm from where it's a war Fatigue jackets, car hard suits, Timberland construction boots From where it's corrupt, but legendary like Pete Rose Where white boy's wild like Axl Rose [Chorus: sample (Solomon Childs)] And Staten Island (West Brighton) And Staten Island (New Brighton) And Staten Island (Stapletown) And Staten Island (Killah Hill) And Staten Island (Port Richmond) And Staten Island (Mariner's Harbor) And Staten Island (Southshore) And, and, and, and (Staten Island) [Solomon Childs] We right here, Mercury From where Wu-Tang held hip hop under autopsy From where the Force MC's defeated the Cold Crush Crew From where cats'll turn they back on you From where police'll put a bundle on you I'm from where, everybody in the hood cousins From where you get popped for fronting From where them beef patties is stale From where the O.G.'s still sip Ballentine Ale From where the real killas is in jail And got parole holds and ain't get no bail From where the baby mothers don't send no mail Out of sight, out of mind From where your man's police and he'll lend you his nine Lend you his vest, lend you his shield Cover up the niggas you killed [Chorus]
