Jenny From The Block - Jennifer Lopez

Album: This is Me ... Then

genre: Latin Pop

Children grow and women producing
Men go working, some go stealing
Everyone’s got to make a living

L-O-X… J.Lo…
Yea, yea, yo, yo
We off the blocks this year
Went from a ‘lil to a lot this year
Everybody mad at the rocks that I wear
I know where I’m goin’ and I know where I’m from
You hear Lox in your ear
Yea we’re at the airport out
D-Glock from the block where everybody air-forced out
With a new white Tee you fresh, nothin’ phoney with us
Make the money, get the mansion, bring the homies with us

Don’t be fooled by the rocks that I got
I’m still – I’m still Jenny from the block
Used to have a little now I have a lot
No matter where I go I know I came from (From the Bronx!)
Dont be fooled by the rocks that I got
I’m still – I’m still Jenny from the block
Used to have a little now I have a lot
No matter where I go I know I came from (From the Bronx!)

From “In Livin’ Color” to movie scripts
To “On the 6” to “J. Lo” to this
Headline clips
I stay grounded as the amounts roll in
I’m real I thought I told ya (I’m Real)
I’m really been on Oprah (I’m Real)
That’s just me
Nothin’ phony don’t hate on me
What you get is what you see, oh

Don’t be fooled by the rocks that I got
I’m still – I’m still Jenny from the block
Used to have a little now I have a lot
No matter where I go I know I came from (From the Bronx!)
Dont be fooled by the rocks that I got
I’m still – I’m still Jenny from the block
Used to have a little now I have a lot
No matter where I go I know I came from (From the Bronx!)

I’m down to earth like this
Rockin’ this business
I’ve grown up so much
I’m in control and lovin it
Rumors got me laughin’ kid
I love my life and my public
Put God first And can’t forget to stay real
To me it’s like breathing, yeahh

Don’t be fooled by the rocks that I got
I’m still – I’m still Jenny from the block
Used to have a little now I have a lot
No matter where I go I know I came from (From the Bronx!)
Dont be fooled by the rocks that I got
I’m still – I’m still Jenny from the block
Used to have a little now I have a lot
No matter where I go I know I came from (From the Bronx!)

Yo, it take hard work to cash checks
So don’t be fooled by the rocks that I got their assets
You get back what you put out
If even if you take the good route
Can’t count the hood out
After a while you’ll know who to blend with
Just keep it real with the ones came in with
Best thing is to stay low, LOX and J.Lo
(Everyone’s got to make a livin’)

Don’t be fooled by the rocks that I got
I’m still – I’m still Jenny from the block
Used to have a little now I have a lot
No matter where I go I know I came from (From the Bronx!)
Dont be fooled by the rocks that I got
I’m still – I’m still Jenny from the block
Used to have a little now I have a lot
No matter where I go I know I came from (From the Bronx!)
