[Verse 1 - Deraj]

Follow me if you want to, down Memory Lane

Everybody got drama, everybody got pain

Everybody got something, something that they afraid

To say out in public, that's why they make us insane

Are we the same? Think we the same

Everybody got a hood, we just call it a different name

Maybe it's in our brain, maybe it's in the game

Maybe it's in our blood, maybe it's all vain

Aw mayne, I remember that pain

I remember that thang, won't give it no name

I won't give it no name, unless it's gonna bring change

And somebody getting changed, cause everybody insane

Everybody insane

When you going down a Lane, going down a Ave

Or going down your past (everybody got a Camden)


[Pre-hook - Tony Tillman]

Everybody got a Camden [x4]


[Hook - Drew Allen]

This is my story

Let me tell you my journey

It's been a long time coming

Everybody's got something

The story goes on and on

On and on

The story goes on and on

So won't you come along


[Verse 2 - Tragic Hero]

Might've been around ten when I got into my first fight

20 Gun Street, yeah I lived in Camden Hill

Man I learned to champ a black in my back in Harrison

I was chilling with some young boys selling pills

Four wills down on River Road, being chased by a cop

And even when I claw dirt that face gonna knock

They be drowning out the noise of somebody getting shot

Down Broadway, a hooker right on every block

I remember when I heard it back in private school

All them little comments, had a few

Teacher treated me like I was gonna be a criminal

Almost like they had a prearranged funeral

Like "Where you from?" (Camden!)

I hated everything about it, but everything happens for a reason

And I'll be proving them wrong 'til the day that I'm gone

I was made in God's image, so I had it all along

I'm from Camden

[Hook - Drew Allen]

This is my story

Let me tell you my journey

It's been a long time coming

Everybody's got something

The story goes on and on

On and on

The story goes on and on

[Verse 3 - Tony Tillman]

You can follow me if you wanna, come to the bottom

I'll show the liquor stores and churches on every corner

Come with me to corner, I can show you the loners

I can show you the smokers, I can show you the stoners

Welcome to Queen City! This view ain't made for Corona

Baby sister twerking, older brother's a goner

Lost ones got a youth corrupted by drug abuse

Daddy be on that juice 'til he drank himself in a coma

But what do you expect when your city full of threats

And the only thing they offer you is death?

Neighbors coming for your head, devil's breathing down your neck

When your table lacking bread, it's whatever for them checks

In the ghetto they saying life is a dice roll, a game of averages

"Ain't nothing good in a city full of savages"

That's not true, the Messiah come from Nazareth

Even Jesus grew up in the hood, everybody got a Camden
