[Intro]
Ayy, Tommy season
(Ayo, Bapsxx, this shit crazy)
I was young, broke, yeah, but I always had smarts
The drugs in me, never took it too far
Except a couple times, but it made me who I am
Still young, I don't got a plan but I need one
Wait, is that Vertigoo?

[Chorus]
The city where I'm from, you see the ghosts in the night time
That's me and you forever, we got close to the right time
And the way you live hits different, wasn't like me
And you had all designer, I was happy in my white tee
I just put my pain up in a rillo and I faced it
Gotta pray my demons don't resurface, I'ma make it
The drugs I abuse, wasn't crushed, it was makeshift
And I ain't with the fake shit but sometimes gotta fake kick

[Verse 1]
Yeah, that's part of growing up, yeah, that's part of tryna make it
I got dreams, I got goals, yeah, I can't be complacent
You said we forever but it's sounding like a long time
Yeah, and bitches fuck with me, not wanna hit me, it's a long line
Ayy, I'm proud of my mental state, can't shit now hold me down
Yeah and I been getting money, but my grandma not around
So sad, I been in my bag
Livin' in the moment like, "This one could be my last"
I tried to go to college but I didn't go to class
Tryna get a crib for my dawgs, tryna get a whip for my moms, did it with no job
Yeah, I did it with no job, ayy
I don't love a bitch, I love a job, ayy
Young but I don't got no flawd
Diamond grill, don't gotta floss
[Chorus]
The city where I'm from, you see the ghosts in the night time
That's me and you forever, we got close to the right time
And the way you live hits different, wasn't like me
And you had all designer, I was happy in my white tee
I just put my pain up in a rillo and I faced it
Gotta pray my demons don't resurface, I'ma make it
The drugs I abuse, wasn't crushed, it was makeshift
And I ain't with the fake shit but sometimes gotta fake kick

[Verse 2]
I been broken down and so I built myself again
I can't fuck with shawty 'cause I'm focused on my Benz
Focused on the moment, ran away, was young
N***as get to switchin' in the city that I'm from
Had to leave, yeah, 'cause I need me some relief
I just took a pill, shawty, this is not alieve
Yeah, rillo in the leaves, blue fives turn to Ps
In the city where I'm from, tales from my friends that OD'd
I feel like a minnow tryna keep up with the sharks, yeah
Ain't no overstepping, I just try to play my part, yeah
If I don't learn my lesson, I can't take it to the heart, yeah (I can't take it to the heart, nah)

[Chorus]
The city where I'm from, you see the ghosts in the night time
That's me and you forever, we got close to the right time
And the way you live hits different, wasn't like me
And you had all designer, I was happy in my white tee
I just put my pain up in a rillo and I faced it
Gotta pray my demons don't resurface, I'ma make it
The drugs I abuse, wasn't crushed, it was makeshift
And I ain't with the fake shit but sometimes gotta fake kick
[Outro]
Ayy, Tommy season
