[Zumbi] Hey, I’m a stranger in the home, my own Been living here 20 long years with my fam like a Corleone But where did everybody go that I used to know? I moved in back in ’84 and we was very poor We wasn’t even selling gold weight, just moving into the Golden State I reminisce about the closed gate that seemed to wrap around The music that we made it had a ghetto sound Most cat black or brown in urban areas It was so infectious that is spread out like malaria New York to Cali back to the Dirty Dirty We used to be 16 but now we pushing 30 I seen the change early, I voted Jerry Curly On out to Dreddy but the next phase we wasn’t ready It seemed to lighten as the years got longer From black to white but the sales got stronger We started going platinum, it was bound to happen We went pop, sleeping in beds of silk and satin When I woke up from my sleep and now it’s Seen the whole scene had changed and all my folks had bounced But I ain’t leaving because I own this block Paid mortgage off steady my rhymes and stocks I’ll be buying property until I own the block I love Hip Hop, it’s all I got [Chorus] x2 Letras de cancionesThere’s a stranger in my home and he’s watching [Gift Of Gab] 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 pleased But knowing that what was there when I had left was there when I returned New faces, replications of styles that they have learned Like Greeks had did Egyptians, complex just simplified I suddenly realized my crib’s been gentrified And if people don’t know then how could people come Big money, neglect the hood, suburban promotion for 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 you see Is that the way it’s looking right now the stranger is me [Chorus] x2 [Zumbi] Hey, there’s a stranger in my home infiltrating my throne Stop messing with my crib won’t leave me alone There a stranger danger[?] they call it pop culture Window feeling hot when you lie she’s a vulture You know that we’re suppose 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 fists I never dreamed it would come to this [?] There are so much to miss[?] someone following me everywhere I go And I don’t know what to do but I got to be true there’s a stranger in my home [Chorus] x2 (Thanks to d409 for these lyrics) From Letras Mania
