Where I’m From by Young Garcia Lyrics
[Intro]
This is just a freestyle
Roscoe on the beat
You got my vocals? Bet
Turn up my headphones a lil' bit
[Verse]
Where I'm From, I'm From Miami, Florida, United States
Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah, Yeah
The Tequesta Native American tribe occupied the Miami area for around 2,000 years before contact with Europeans
A village of hundreds of people, dating to 500–600 B.C., was located at the mouth of the Miami River
It is believed that the entire tribe migrated to Cuba by the mid-1700s
In 1566, admiral Pedro Menéndez de Avilés, Florida's first governor, claimed the area for Spain
A Spanish mission was constructed one year later
Spain and Britain successively ruled Florida until Spain ceded it to the United States in 1821
In 1836, the U.S. built Fort Dallas
This is just a freestyle
