[Intro]

DJ Hoppa

[Chorus: Emilio Rojas]

Yeah I'm from the gutter

You know we keep it gutter

My people from the gutter

We leave you in a gutter

[Verse 1: Emilio Rojas]

Everything in my momma name because I ain't trustin' one soul, nah

All them girls they won't fuck me, that's why all them hoes at my show, yeah

All them homies get hustlin' when they money start to get low

And I got my neck tatted and my head shaved like a convict on parole, yeah

I'm in uptown but we runnin' shit down to Ebbets Field

And them kids sleepin' on Fentanyl like it's Benadryl

We in the opioid epidemic, yeah everyone usin' dope

It's paralyzin' the paramedics, yeah everyone losin' hope

I got a cousin that overdosed, I got a friend who got clean

I got some people that started on Percocets after surgery, turned into fiends

I got a shorty that had some withdrawals in my crib and I found 20 pills in the jeans

But I didn't judge her, I just took it from her and told her that she couldn't leave, nah

This the American Dream, yeah, this is our fuckin' allure, yeah

They makin' us sick and feedin' us this shit, and sellin' us drugs as a cure, yeah

And they just target the poor, yeah lock us and take us to court, yeah

Send us to public defender because it's the only shit that we can afford, yeah

[Chorus: Emilio Rojas]

Yeah I'm from the gutter

You know we keep it gutter

My people from the gutter

We leave you in a gutter

[Verse 2: Jarren Benton]

I came out the gutter hoe, big guns that'll kill a buffalo

Momma can't even pay the gas bill (uh-uh)

Now we all huddled by the oven door (facts)

Cops shoot niggas over skin-tone

Daddy on crack nigga been gone (fuck 'em)

Broken home, black nigga syndrome, gang gang, nigga don't live long

Livin' in the gutter

[Verse 3: Price]

Rice with the butter

Daddy in jail, now his name is a number

The homie got killed, niggas tripped all summer

I was on tour tryna make a way out

Hefty got killed with his son in the city

12 shot Terrell, it went dumb in the city

She fucked the homie, thought she was the one in the city

I.e. there ain't no fun in my city

It's the gutter

[Verse 4: Oktane]

Yeah, livin' in the gutter

We ain't know we was in it

My neighbors ain't speak no English

Another ride in school, we ditchin'

Had the game and snacks in the kitchen

Don't talk, my friends don't listen

Ain't showin' up to no class, ain't showin' up to detention

I stayed up out that bullshit, still had to watch a homie get his brains blown

Still had to get slammed by the police, no bread so a nigga had to stay home

Wrong side of the hood, don't take long

Stay black, stay strong

Bring back my change and share with your brother

'Cause yeah

[Chorus: Emilio Rojas]

Yeah I'm from the gutter

You know we keep it gutter

My people from the gutter

We leave you in a gutter

[Verse 5: Dizzy Wright & Reezy]

Aye, woke up, took my chances

Trappin' takes no campin' (trap)

Momma kept on spendin'

Rode up mine and his man

Stackin' up the cheese, hold the mozzarella (uh-huh)

Came out the gutter like Donatello (gutter)

Now y'all movin' too slow (god damn)

Drag race, get it off the go, (skrrt, skrrt)

Pulled up in it, with the doors up (doors up)

Where the hoes at? What's the hold up? (hold up)

Pineal gland like a Cobra (like what?)

Pulled up, still hold 'em all up

We don't fold or fold over (not at all)

Me and money gettin' older (cash)

Put the city on my shoulders (I did)

Then I swear the world got colder

(Livin' in the gutter)

[Verse 6: Demrick]

Gutter raised with them gutter ways

Mother stand out the shutters

Watchin' as her sons would play, but on the other paved

Soon she looked away, we was servin' caine

Harsh realities of the real life, killin' off each other didn't feel right

Gotta watch for the red and the blue lights

Don't get caught runnin' 'round after midnight

I'm from the gutter
