Where I'm From

I am from graffiti on the walls
from chicken wings and french fries
I am from a home with no father that never said goodbye
This is where I'm from
I am from the crowded schools
from all the nerd to the jocks
I am from drug deals and car jackings that never seize to stop
I am from the world of hip-hop
form Jay Z to Lil Wayne
I am from a place of many cultures that have suffered great pain
This is where I'm from
