 back home
 everybody's searching for 
 but all they can find is a whole  of nothin'
 back home
 ain't nobody hoping and 
 'cause they  like nothing can save 'em
 and they try to hold out but they  fight the fact that
 life goes black  those lights go out
 but i  you gotta just watch out for your own
 'cause  a damn thing free
 back home
 
 (common:)
 back home
 they holler "disciple"  "blackstone"
 same block they  yo we trapped on
  our grandmothers marched
 the guns clap 
 there's liquor stores, beauty supplies, and  songs
 i travel the world just to  back to it
 the crib got a lot of soul  black music
  attached to it
 in  ways the city raised me
 and gave me
 the drama,  and bravery
 the  seem hollow
 when i go  chicago
  cheap wine and sorrow
  is hard to swallow
 in search of  tomorrow
 i borrow  from the
 bible
 and  them for survival
 gangs rival
 signs painted on walls like 
 i  'em that this is all tribal
 used  do dirt
  goin' through the same cycle
 and trials  michael
 tryin' not to  idle
 
 (ryu:)
  home it's not compton but close
 the same problems exist and the pain 
 and folks are  common
 it don't
 really bother us much we just swallow 
 uh
 crack the bottle and 
 hope tomorrow something
 magical  that'll put me back in the biz
 but the chances of it actually  kinda slim
 back home
 we get the good  at a glimpse
 in the form of a rap star, drug  and pimps
 i'm back home
 
 (tak:)
 back home
 i try my best  keep it together it's cold
 like the windy city streets of 
  pace back and forth
 looking  the courage to shine
 but can't tap  source
  something to nourish my mind
 i know  all lose quite a bit in life
 only  gain some
 life of  dark winding roads we came from
 but i move with  night
 so i'm used to the 
 and never  sight
 bringing truth  to the game
 
 (mike:)
 back home
 we've got a lot of shit on  minds
 we're always behind  something cause there's not enough time
 and we're non-stop
 bottom line
 doing what we gotta do to get  food in the fridge and stay out of the hosptial
 back home there's people  us hopeless
 people trying to tell us  we need is some focus
 but focus
 focus is overrated
 cause you see every  and mistake and can't change it
  home is alvarado
 k-town and j-town
  little tokyo for those that don't know
 where figures shiver
 living  inside the la river
 on the concrete
 a symbol of our  way
 its that color  concentration over the heavy and grey
 and by the time the  dries on this page
 i'll be half  day away from the place where i stay
