Yea if you come from where we come from

No we dont ever run from

Gettin money in a lump sum just to pay it back later

If the family need a favour then it ain't nothin major

Paper changes hands quicker then a dj hits the fader

Thats just how we do how we grew hard to understand

That as a sour youth mum explainin that

You ain't allowed to choose

Your family's your family they gonna look out for you

Still a samoan boy dont forget about your roots

Growin up in ak where they dont forget their rugby boots

Didn't play much five-eighth I would play way more kurupt

And snoop play way more mobb deep boom boom

Say hey all my people who

Been goin against the grain but dont forget bout why we really do

What we do where we came from got our names from

People I lay next to in the ground when my day comes

Chance to make my music a gift for me that they brung

Think I ain't proud then you mistaken uce

Thats just how we do how we're raised island roots auckland ways

People overseas wonder if I'll ever change

But I came from the future

Today is tomorrow

Thats why what ever we do

Then the world gonna follow

Celebrate it with my fam

Feel like we just hit the lotto

The world gonna follow

Man I came from nz my today is their tomorrow

I got dem laid back island genes

I dont need no drama

In my ie lavalava listenin to dear mama

With my peers sippin lagers reminiscin on the years

Made a tears that we shed for the departed disappeared

So for real rod see you when I get there

I still got some things that I need to tackle bout to get my headgear like I'm thurston or kronfeld man I'm certain

If things round here were perfect

Feel I'd be half the person

I was birthed in middlemore for a reason

On any day in auckland could see all four seasons

So we're born believen the sky ain't the limit its just somethin to react to

Things are lookin cloudy now but the sun will crack through

Umbrella packed too you can read it like I'm tattoed

Proud of where I'm from it pulls me back like

A lasso laugh how we used to pay for sky before the rent

This that hamo that palagi pito saute aukilagi shit
