In My Hood Lyrics

In My Hood

It's all about The Struggle for The Life We Live

What cha know, what cha know about that

What cha know, what cha know about that?

In My Hood

Don't get caught up in Your Hustle

Cause The Life you'll get

What cha know, what cha know about that

What cha know, what cha know about that?

In My Hood

Does it appear that cha Ghetto Life's a riddle?

Abandon it, ya stranded, Wife's a Widow

Demand it, take it for granted, give in or let it go

One might understand it, didn't know

It can make da Po' get doe

Uh-oh, Hit da floor, Get da door -Yo - Gotta get paid

Sellin' a Boulder to you know her now ya afraid

Of The Outcome Young Blood won't Come Out now

Cause Outcome P.D. in uniform lookin' for Malcolm

How can you remember?

No Thanksgiving or cooking dinner

Better forever Givin' Thanks

You had cheddar, Good-lookin' women

Tidings of great joy wit cha boys in December (yeah)

They rather you a Lend a Hand

Or offend a man to Hinder da Plan

For court cops knock for you

Told some members to rob Fort Knox ya thru

All because who wasn't makin' enough a day

Should you pay or suffer A I don't care what cha say

In My Hood

It's all about The Struggle for The Life We Live

What cha know, what cha know about that

What cha know, what cha know about that?

In My Hood

Don't get caught up in Your Hustle

Cause The Life you'll get

What cha know, what cha know about that

What cha know, what cha know about that?

In My Hood

How can they tell where ya coming from?

Look at cha son

And I ain't been where ya at

Who's on your back?

They can see you doin' somethin' dumb

Still havin' fun? (lookin' round)

And they don't even know ya black

Know da facts you came from God da crack

No job or shoes on ya feet

Either starve or Jack The Ripper for food da eat (ugh)

Throughout The Week, on The Streets

You wear rags when braggin'

You're Badder than Marilyn Manson

Grabbin' a gun because he's hungry

Nobody says, take this money from me

Son see never be a dummy

Or ever take anything 1 We

Can relate to not treated equal Me 2

When I'm around wit cha people

Put me down like an E Q

I beat you helpin' your partner win in pool

You'll turned around and drown um in a swimming pool

Should a been in school fool, I wasn't born yesterday

There's always a rougher way, I don't care what cha say

In My Hood

It's all about The Struggle for The Life We Live

What cha know, what cha know about that

What cha know, what cha know about that?

In My Hood

Don't get caught up in Your Hustle

Cause The Life you'll get

What cha know, what cha know about that

What cha know, what cha know about that?

In My Hood

What cha say O G

Is it impossible for you da get a J - O - B?

Before you got out da pen,

The 4 walls, was your best friend

After ya hafta depend on some X-Men

When you discover my brother

Nobody's helping out (out)

And ya mother won't love ya

Don't put yourself in doubt (no doubt)

Cause I'm about, to get rid of da Stereotype

Because Our Ghetto's Alright

This ain't some 'Here we go' hype

The Golden Rule

Do you know the sign? Don't be cruel

"Do Unto Others as you would have them Do unto you"

Huh This ain't New News, it's all about who's whose

Refuse loose if you don't choose Used Tools

Materialism is the least We say give

For really ya wisdom a be appreciated

All because a Love you kept in touch away

You did it in such a way

I don't care what cha say

In My Hood

It's all about The Struggle for The Life We Live

What cha know, what cha know about that

What cha know, what cha know about that?

In My Hood

Don't get caught up in Your Hustle

Cause The Life you'll get

What cha know, what cha know about that

What cha know, what cha know about that?

In My Hood

Recognize where you come from ugh

And don't forget where you been

In My Hood

Capitalize on who you come from ugh

Don't be a threat, Use a friend

In My Hood

Recognize where ya come from ugh

And don't forget where ya been

In My Hood

Capitalize on who you come from ugh

Don't be a threat, Use a friend

In My Hood

It's all about The Struggle for The Life We Live

What cha know, what cha know about that

What cha know, what cha know about that?

In My Hood

Don't get caught up in Your Hustle

Cause The Life You'll get

What cha know, what cha know about that

What cha know, what cha know about that?
