Coming From

Believe me when I say

Before light there was dark

Where you going where you going

Where you going where you going

Where you going

If I don't know where I'm coming from

Where would I go

If I don't know where I'm coming from

Where would I go

If I don't know where I'm coming from

Where would I go

If I don't know where I'm coming from

Where would I go

Places that I've have been things that I have seen

What you call a nightmare are what I have as dreams

Bad as that may seem I know is only going to get worse

Love a slug which one am I gonna get first

My journeys been a rough one I'm not sure when it begins

But the way its looking I kind of know when its gonna end

Hold me down baby its gonna be a rough ride

N***as give us plenty of room cause I guess enough died

Let me travel cause my intentions are to travel in peace

F**k around I lay you down you hit the gravel and cease

I could be a beast or I could be a gentleman

But if you ain't my dog you gonna be like oh its him again

N***as will never win this whole rap game is mine

Hot as you ever been I was that in eighty nine

Seek and you shall find look within and you will know

Where you coming from

And where you gotta go

Come on

If I don't know where I'm coming from

Where would I go

If I don't know where I'm coming from

Where would I go

Got to keep it real with me

If I don't know where I'm coming from

Where would I go

So the hell with you

If I don't know where I'm coming from

Where would I go

I think I'm going to the top

Me and dmx

I will spend mad time in one spot plotting my next move

Trying to figure out what is it that x do what x do

Some questions go unanswered that's what I'm afraid of

Sometimes I can't show

But I know what I'm made of

They made love or should I say they made lust

Bound there didn't have to be love there

But they made us

I got quite a few sisters I was the only boy

But being with my dog was my only joy

Like a kid with a new toy I forgot about the

Escaped the misery didn't think about the crime

Lost all track of time was in another world

Everybody knew earl

But there was another earl

Like the side of the dark riding the park but wouldn't want to

When they jump me became a good runner

One by one they all went under

So I had the last laugh

They all thought it all was a joke

But I had the last laugh

Ha ha ha ha ha ha

Come on

If I don't know where I'm coming from

Where would I go

If I don't know I don't know

If I don't know where I'm coming from

Where would I go

But I know where I'm going

If I don't know where I'm coming from

Where would I go

But I know where I'm going

If I don't know where I'm coming from

Where would I go

Do you know do you know

I feel the ghost from within coming back to haunt me

Stay love in my peoples even though they don't want me

When I was bad I was forgotten like I was dead and rotten

Should've been getting love

But instead was plotting

S**t wasnt right

And it was all blamed on me

Didn't know that I was special till this rap s**t came to be

Gave me a way out showed me it was better to teach

Than bust n***as with the fo fo leave them dead in the streets

Over beef that was worth less than the cost of the slugs

That I bought to kill them

And that's because I thought I ought to kill them

Little did I know death wasnt right

Didn't always show every breath was a life

It was to be captured in suspended animation

To be felt by all understood by every nation

Whats the sense of hating when I can show love

Whats the sense of faking when I can show blood

Now whats the moral to this story

Come on

If I don't know where I'm coming from

Where would I go

If I don't know where I'm coming from

Where would I go

If I don't know I don't know

If I don't know where I'm coming from

Where would I go

But I know where I'm coming from

If I don't know where I'm coming from

Where would I go

Do you know where you're coming from

Yonkers is where we grew

Trials we got through

On top is where we staying

Till the end as long as well pray

On hot97 ya hear

Dmx all through the year
