1 BECKY FROM THE BLOCK
Children growing
Woman producing
Men going to work
And some do stealing
Everyones gotta make a living

I wont stop till I get to the top
Im so, Im so Becky from the block
Always had a little, but I wanna a lot
No matter where I go, I know where I came from
I wont stop till I get to the top
Im so, Im so Becky from the block
Always had a little, but I wanna a lot
No matter where I go, I know where I came from
Yo, first grade, Oak street elementary
A few blocks from the Inglewood cemetery
I lived through hard times, according to my memory
Then I learned to rhyme
Like Im reading up the dictionary
I still walk to the Kelso Market
Even though I get to walk them red carpets
My family lived in my grandpas garage
So I started working just to help out my pops
It all started when my grandpa crossed over
Now one day Im a be a crossover
Right now its just who is that girl?
But one day Im a be all around the world
I still get grounded, always stay grounded
Still do chores even when Im on tour
One things for sure, Im a always be me
That west side Becky, Becky, Becky G
I wont stop till I get to the top
Im so, Im so Becky from the block
Always had a little, but I wanna a lot
No matter where I go, I know where I came from
I wont stop till I get to the top
Im so, Im so Becky from the block
Always had a little, but I wanna a lot
No matter where I go, I know where I came from
Yo, what you know about that InNOut life?
And what you know about that 4×5 drive?
My life is changing quickly right before my eyes
It hits me every time that Im on Hollywood and Vine
If you wanna date me, you gotta ask my Daddy
And my 30 uncles, you can meet them in an alley
And one day Im a bring home a Grammy
But no matter what Ill be bringing home Randys
Donuts, so what? Holla when you see me
Im still the same B, even when Im on TV
Still rocking Js with my diamonds and pearls
You can take me out the hood
But not the hood out of the girl
Yes, I love sushi, love my calamari
But aint no better chef than my very own mommy
If you cant catch me roaming in my barrio
Im with my litas praying the Rosario

No matter where I go, I know where I came from
I wont stop till I get to the top
Im so, Im so Becky from the block
Always had a little, but I wanna a lot
No matter where I go, I know where I came from
I wont stop till I get to the top
Im so, Im so Becky from the block
Always had a little, but I wanna a lot
No matter where I go, I know where I came from
I wont stop till I get to the top
Im so, Im so Becky from the block
Always had a little, but I wanna a lot
No matter where I go I know where I came from
