This whole album is very special to me. I'm thankful for it and how it helped me through tough times. Mike is a great human being.
Same bro, Linkin park are just legends
Same, love Fort Minor
He is and it shows. Happy for you man
Me too brother
In many ways this Album raised me....... Got my first taste in 2007 still knocking the dust out this album in 2021
How does this have so little views? This is one of the best FM songs...
Gavindalf if you don't think all of an artist work is the best they can give you, why the fuck are you listening. Hater.
he didn't say that. He said that this is awesome, but very little people watch.
@@mathewostovich3017 lol, man, are you blind?) Re-read again...
These dudes had amazing songs, the whole album is awesome, Mike nailed it! 👏
Back home
Everybody's searching for somethin'
But all they can find is a whole lot of nothin'
Back home
Ain't nobody hoping and praying
'Cause they feel like nothing can save 'em
And they try to hold out but they can't fight the fact that
Life goes black when those lights go out
But I guess you gotta just watch out for your own
'Cause ain't a damn thing free
Back home
Back home they holler "disciple" and "blackstone"
Some black they freebase yo we trapped on
Where our grandmothers marched the guns clap on
There's liquor stores, beauty supplies, and rap songs
I travel the world just to come back to it
The crib got a lot of soul like black music
I'm attached to it
In many ways this city raised me and gave me
The drama, honor, and bravery
The streets seem hollow when I go to Chicago
It's cheap wine and sorrow
Times hard to swallow
In search of God's tomorrow I borrow words from the
Bible and use them for survival gangs rival
Signs painted on the walls like hieroglyphics
I tell 'em that this is all tribal
Used to do dirt shorty's goin' through the same cycle
And trials like Michael tryin' not to stay idle
Back home it's not Compton but close
The same problems exist and the pain throbbin'
And folks are so common
It don't really bother us much we just swallow it uh
Crack the bottle and smoke hope tomorrow something
Magical happens that'll put me back in the biz
But the chances of it actually happening's kinda slim
Back home we get the good life at glimpse
In the form of a rap start, drug dealers, and pimps
I'm back home
Back home I try my best to keep it together it's cold
Like the Windy City streets of December
I pace back and forth looking for the courage to shine
But can't tap the source need something to nourish my mind
I know we all lose quite a bit in life
Only to gain some
Life or the dark winding roads we came from
But I move with the night so I'm used to the shade
And never lose sight bringing truth back to the game
Back home we've got a lot of shit on our minds
We're always behind on something 'cause there's not enough time
And we're non-stop bottom line doing what we gotta do
To get some food in the fridge and stay out of the hospital
Back home there's people calling us hopeless
People trying to tell us all we need is some focus
But focus
Focus is overrated
Cause you see very blemish and mistake and can't change it
Back home is Alvarado K-Town and J-Town
Or Little Tokyo for those that don't know
Where figures shiver living right in the litter
Where kids write nigga right inside the L.A River
On the concrete a symbol of out everyday way
It's that color and concentration over heavy gray
And by the time the ink dries on this page
I'll be half a day away from the place where I stay
Tysm
Appreciated 👊🙌
Bumps so hard even in 2020
same here
2021. Still a fucking jam.
as a whole its one of the best albums ever made imo
Yeah totally agree
yeah!
I've been listening since 2011, 2012, 2013, 2014, 2016, 2017, and 2018 !!! it's ALLLLL about that Fort Minor yo !!! FM radio now means Fort Minor !!!
2015 must have been a dark year
bitches
Lmao!
@@twizzler123969 lol
Best off the album and very special... Gave me strength when I needed it most
THE BEAT IS THE FIREST BEAT IN THE ALBUM!
Going back home tomorrow, its rough and this song popped in my head
Sickest beat
2019...still lit AF
Still listen to this fire right here!!!
i remember when this album came out and i wonder how in never blew up
It's 7 years later and I still agree. I'm going on a nostalgia trip through this album and I wouldn't say that I'm surprised it still holds up because of how many times I replayed this album, but I am still happy about it. Man...Mike Shanoda is still a really unique person, maybe that's part of it. Maybe some random people are just weird and unique, their style is very personal and it doesn't catch on, partly because it's just how he is. IDK, we'll just have to see.
Someone reply in 3+ years lol
@@sorryifoldcomment8596 Im also here 7 years later and joying the song just as much as the first time if not more
The fucking nostalgia hits so hard.

This is what the new 🏫 should be learning from. The realness and the purity of Hip-Hop and this is a classic example.
❤❤❤😂😂🎉 rapper Common is featured on the album Mike Shinobu keep up the good work
Smooooooooth
they said all you need focus, but focus, focus is overrated, you see every blemish and mistake and cant change it
Damn I feel old. It feel like yesterday I was uploading these songs on my Bebo page 😂

2:30 truth
In my opinion, the beat is good and the lyrics are mad but it isn't the best song from FM. It's much better than most of the bs that comes from modern day rappers.
agreed
This is 1 of 3 favorites of mine
Right now
Back home
In stereo
haha the only song i don't like from FM is In Stereo. Be somebody, the hard way, where'd you go? those are my favorite especially be somebody
