Lyrics
And this the place to be, and my people this the place to be
(Ah yeah yeah, ah yeah yeah yeah)
And this the place to be, and my people this the place to be
(Ah yeah yeah, ah yeah yeah yeah)
And this the place to be, and my people this the place to be
(Ah yeah yeah, ah yeah yeah yeah)
And this the place to be, and my people this the place to be
(Ah yeah yeah, ah yeah yeah yeah)
Look, had to take it home with me, feeling like my vida loca
He supposed to hold you, he supposed to hold you down
Learn the ropes on my own, street smart plus me huh
Equals sweetheart, get your feet off the new linen
New killings on the nearest blocks that we livin'
Bastard telling me it’s not my fault but I’m feelin' the pressure
My feelings are numb to the stabbings are killing
They shoot for the kill what we feeding are children?
The hustle the money the bitches they love it Let’s teach them some taxes, let’s teach them how to relax when they in a room
with the enemy
Let’s move for a century, generations I inspire it all
Don’t wanna see my people climbing the fall, damn
And I know, there’s a brighter day outside I smile good
I smile good
And I know, there’s a brighter day outside I smile good
And you know that I’m smiling good
And this the place to be, and my people this the place to be
(Ah yeah yeah, ah yeah yeah yeah)
And this the place to be, and my people this the place to be
(Ah yeah yeah, ah yeah yeah yeah)
Yeah the grass is always greener, what do you believe in?
Believe in love? Believe in us? Believe in trust?
Well I still fight for survival, a black man from the crabs of the Congo
You’ll find me amongst those, the group yeah we posted for better days, I relate
I put my faith in the people, I put my faith in the change that we are facing
Everybody’s the same, 'cause everybody needs love
And everybody needs affection, don’t you lie it’s a must
I seen it happen with my own two I was down on my trust
But what is love if you ain’t loving yourself?
How you trying to elevate if you ain’t trusting yourself?
Those are facts though, man though
Love before the bank roll, better love yourself before the cash flow
Real talk man it’s been us only
Pray to the holy, act like you know me, the same story
Progression is the message for the times
I just want everybody to make it out alive
And I know, there’s a brighter day outside I smile good
I smile good
And I know, there’s a brighter day outside I smile good
And you know that I’m smiling good
And this the place to be, and my people this the place to be
(Ah yeah yeah, ah yeah yeah yeah)
And this the place to be, and my people this the place to be
(Ah yeah yeah, ah yeah yeah yeah)
And this the place to be, and my people this the place to be
(Ah yeah yeah, ah yeah yeah yeah)
And this the place to be, and my people this the place to be
(Ah yeah yeah, ah yeah yeah yeah)
And this the place to be, and my people this the place to be
(Ah yeah yeah, ah yeah yeah yeah)
