E-40 - Zoom lyrics

Uhh, I come from nothin
Come up, I come from nothin
To get it crankin right here right here?
Turma turmoil, torment and turmoil uh ooh
We been in bondage for years for how long?
Trapped up in the ghetto yea that's true
Dang, I got a dream though fiction
Tryin to make my own progress
That's fictionary

ZOOM! Even though the streets mob filthy
Lights burned out (out)
Dopefiends die with antennas in they mouth
Niggas are starvin
Some of my niggas is havin they cash
Niggas is ballin, parkin they car
All on the grass
Livin it up to the fullest platinum
Colored jew-els and organized glass
Not none of that old
Fake ass costume jewelry
That looks like brass
I'm lookin out the window
While you play Nintendo
You drive a Navigator, I drive a Pinto
I was there, nothin polite, me and my fools
The ghetto
Field mice and rat drippings up in my shoes
A rebel, without a pause, commodes n stars
No toilet tissue
Dirty doodoo stains up in my draws

Ooh zoom, I like, to fly far away from here
Where my mind flows on, it's fresh and clear
And I, found a love, that I long to see
And people, who be, who they want to beeee
Ho!

I never had, lobster in my life (or what?)
Or teriyaki steaks
Just sardines and spam and cornflakes
Pacific Bell done put me
On restriction once again
I can't call out, but you can call in
Can barely think straight, barely keep focus
My crackhead cousin spent the night
(what we got) now we got roaches
(Damn) Here lies my property, no composure
Six months behind on my mortgage
House under fo'closure
Momma ain't feelin too good, she diabetic
Scared of needles hospitals
Ambulance paramedics
And I'm the oldest of fo'
Sleepin on the flo'
Watchin TV channels we used to
Borrow cable from next do'

Ooh zoom, I like, to fly far away from here
Where my mind flows on, it's fresh and clear
And I, found a love, that I long to see
And people, who be, who they want
Who they want to beeee, yea! HAHAHHHHHH!

I seen it in a dream, a big white home
Looked like a office building
An old school Brougham with a sunroof ceiling
Thug living
Sixty-four ounce of drinkin thinkin
"How could I come up
And purchase me a Lincoln?" drug dealin
Leelin and dealin tryin to make a million
Blood spillin
Driveby walk up to that nigga peel him
Back then I was blind
Penetentiary chance at jail
Livin off my gahl for hella long
She worked at Taco Bell
And if the heater ain't workin
And it's freezin cold
We open up the oven and turn on the stove
Survival, granddaddy's appreciation
Revival church of pentacostal
We raised money by givin car washes

Ooh zoom, I like, to fly far away from here
Where my mind flows on, it's fresh and clear
And I, found a love, that I long to see
And people, who be, who they want
Who they want to beeee, yea!
