Welcome to my hometown
Rockaway that's my locale
Let me give ya'll the lowdown
Every night last call there's a showdown
So you gotta stay smart
No it's not for the faint heart
Raise your glass to the folks that have passed on
Rest in peace J Mart
In your memory I'm rockin
Yeah you're gone but you'll never be forgotten
Save a spot for your boy up in heaven
Can't forget 9/11, flight 587

Let me tell you where I come from
Ain't no fakers where I come from
That's why you don't come from where I come from
Let me tell you where I come from
Ain't no strangers where I come from
That's why you not welcomed where I come from

Welcome to the boardwalk
We all brothers but we all fought
On the summertime ball courts
Flip flops, tank tops and some ball shorts
We show love when it calls for it
Like the troops overseas and soldiers at war for us
I'm praying that you come back
Know I got a blunt ready when you unpack (Hah)
Real talk, hope you get home safe
First round's on me when you hit homebase (Yeah)
I'll be with you till the last drop
Just take the A train to the last stop

Let me tell you where I come from
Ain't no fakers where I come from
That's why you don't come from where I come from
Let me tell you where I come from
Ain't no strangers where I come from
That's why you not welcomed where I come from

And it feels like only yesterday that the ocean met the bay
Houses burned down, homes were swept away
People lost businesses
I can't stomach looking at the images
Bitch Sandy stole our innocence
Had us moving like immigrants
Trust we the type of citizens you never wanna bid against
Especially when there's a wall that we're pinned against
We'll be in it till the bitter end
Get it in from the first day of summer till the winter end
Go to sleep, wake up and do the shit again
One love, boy I gotta say peace
Signing off, Bobby J, I'm from Rockaway Beach

Let me tell you where I come from
Ain't no fakers where I come from
That's why you don't come from where I come from
Let me tell you where I come from
Ain't no strangers where I come from
That's why you not welcomed where I come from
