Stranger In My Home (Explicit) - Zion I/Gift Of Gab
I'm a stranger in a home I own
Been livin' here twenty long years with my fam like a Corleone
But where did everybody go that I used to know
I moved in back in 'eighty four'
We was very 'poor wasn't even sellin' gold weight
Just movin' in to the Gold State
I reminisce about the closed gate
That seemed to wrap around
The music that we made
It had a ghetto sound
Most cats was black and brown in Urban areas
Was so infectious that
It spread out like Malaria
New York to Cali
Back to the dirty dirty
We used to be sixteen
But now we pushing thirty
I seen it change early
I pulled a Jheri Curly
On out to dready but the next phase we wasn't ready
It seemed enlightened as the years got longer
From black to white but the sales got stronger
We started going platinum it was bound happen
We went pop sleeping in beds of silk and satin
When I woke up from my sleep pronounced
Saw the whole scene had changed all my folks had bounced
But I ain't leaving 'cause I own this block
Been paying off my mortgage steady with my bonds and stock
I be buying property till I own the block
I love hip hop it's all I got
There's a stranger in my home
And he's watching
Yeah yeah yeah
There's a Stranger in my home
And he's watching
Yeah yeah
There's a stranger in my home
My house has been invaded
Went out for just a second
Came back it ain't the same as it was
At times I felt could leave the door unlocked
And let all come and go as they please
But knowing that was there
When I had left was there when I returned
New faces replications some styles
That they have learned
Like Greeks had did Egyptians
Complex to simplified
I suddenly realized
My cribs been gentrified
And if people don't know
Then how could people come
Big money neglect the hood
Suburban promotion
From urban emotion to corporation
Who really don't have a clue where they got they taste from
There's a stranger in my home and my peoples is gone
And I'm feeling like the outsider standing alone
There's a stranger in here
But the strangest thing to see
Is the way it's looking right now
The stranger is me
There's a stranger in my home
And he's watching
There's a Stranger in my home
And he's watching
Yeah yeah
There's a stranger in my home
Infiltrating my throne
Stop messing with my crib
Won't leave me alone
There's a stranger it's danger
The call of hip hop culture
When you're feeling hot
When you're not she's a vulture
Know that we're supposed to protect
And respect
But it's hard to stay righteous
When you needing a check
There's a stranger in my midst
Now I'm balling my fist
I never dreamed it would come to this
There is so much to me
So they're following me everywhere I go
I don't know what to do
But I gotta stay true
There's a stranger in my home
There's a stranger in my home
And he's watching
There's a stranger in my home
And he's watching
There's a strange
From the root to the fruit
That's where everything started at
This is God's act
We just act possessed
