Cal the Rapper - Where I Come From

Came from Michigan a little farm town
Some days I miss it. I'm glad it's over now
Mom in the kitchen makin food till it was brown
Now I got a bigger vision. Gonna buy the whole town
Spent so many days fixin broken shit
Got no money so we deal with it
By usin what we got to just get by
It's a fucked up way to go through life
Wonder every day will the bills get paid
Or get locked away like a barricade
Don't feel okay with the thoughts I made
Too much mental pain fuckin up my brain
Don't take days off, no time for that
Responsibilities don't come from cats
Work everyday and clean up crap
Because if you don't, you're gonna fall flat
Came from a place without any cash to spend
Goin at my own pace. Never had a lot of friends
Spent all of my free time workin on somethin on the farm
Felt like everything was fine because we had the firearms
The population of my town was about 500
And the school that I was going to had 700
None of the other students there wanted to talk to me
Now I really do not care because I'm gonna be the king
They don't give a fuck. Make us feel like junk
Actin like they tough but they just dumb schmucks
My graduating class had 68 so everybody knew who was getting laid
News spread so fast in a place like that
No holding back. They know all your crap
Everything there would cause drama. There was nothing else to discuss. Llama
Anything I want, I'd have to buy
Like a new Xbox or a slice of pie
Parents bank account was always dry cause they got four kids they need to provide
So I had to work if I want somethin nice
Nothins free. I learned that at 9
So I learned that value early on and it's still with me when I write this song
Came from a place without any cash to spend
Goin at my own pace. Never had a lot of friends
Spent all of my free time workin on somethin on the farm
Felt like everything was fine because we had the firearms
The population of my town was about 500
And the school that I was going to had 700
None of the other students there wanted to talk to me
Now I really do not care because I'm gonna be the king
Came from Michigan in a little farm town
Some days I miss it. But I'm glad it's over now
Mom in the kitchen makin food till it was brown
Now I got a bigger vision. Gonna buy the whole town
Spent so many days fixin broken shit
We got no money so we deal with it
By usin what we got to just get by
It's a fucked up way to go through life
