I'm talking 'bout roots[00:00:21]
I can't hate where I'm from[00:00:22]
Cause where I'm from made me[00:00:24]
Cause where I'm from made me[00:00:26]
I came from the bottom of the slums[00:00:27]
But now I got meme[00:00:30]
That's because of my roots[00:00:31]

I'm talking 'bout roots[00:00:42]
Hey I can't be mad at what got me ahead[00:00:43]
I don't regret my ghetto struggle due to my success[00:00:46]
It ain't that beautiful to write on overcoming stress[00:00:48]
Top Ramen noodle soup thank pappy for the fact I was fed[00:00:51]
Look at me now but all before[00:00:54]
Hey Mr Skid Row[00:00:55]
The dirty south ain't just a name the way I've been poor[00:00:57]
The projects brown and white I call it gizmo[00:00:59]
Went from a gremlin to them cars in Jigga's video[00:01:02]
Can't find a meal to a mil only God know it[00:01:05]
No record deal to a deal I work hard for it[00:01:07]
Can I live to I'm living like my momma told it[00:01:10]
Before you rip it gotta sew it[00:01:13]
I'm talking 'bout roots[00:01:14]
I can't hate where I'm from[00:01:16]
Cause where I'm from made me[00:01:18]

Hey still on my Kunta Kinte[00:01:37]
Somebody had to bleed just for me to get away[00:01:39]
My sister had to leave I respect her staying safe[00:01:42]
Oh yea I had to grieve but I'm stronger to this day[00:01:45]
Pain I can't ignore it you might say I'm ignorant[00:01:48]
I'm mistaking for courage victory so gorgeous[00:01:50]
Make it through two Bush I can make it through any forest[00:01:53]
Hunger gave me the wish but the bottom is so important[00:01:56]
37 ave and 187 street Miami Carol City now I'm part of a legacy[00:01:59]
I'm thankful for the hood what is love without jealousy[00:02:04]
There's only five letters really help me[00:02:06]
I'm talking 'bout roots[00:02:09]
I can't hate where I'm from[00:02:10]
Cause where I'm from made me[00:02:12]

I'm talking 'bout roots[00:02:30]
Hey I know the seeds been planted[00:02:31]
It's damaging my soul but my dreams been granted[00:02:33]
That triple life towards much deeper than Earth's planet[00:02:36]
What could I want more than redoing I never panic[00:02:39]
Gets no lower than the ground beneath your feet[00:02:42]
A man will stand for nothing if he falls for defeat[00:02:44]
A boulder in the hand better than all in the street[00:02:47]
If you look beneath the sand then we all need a crease[00:02:49]
Roots before the branches roots before the mansions[00:02:52]
Roots before your paper crazier than Marilyn Manson[00:02:55]
Roots with your grandparents roots under your canvas[00:02:58]
Roots whether you black white or Spanish[00:03:00]
I'm talking 'bout roots[00:03:02]
I can't hate where I'm from[00:03:04]
Cause where I'm from made me[00:03:06]
