| If I was gonna tell somebody
|
| I wanna make it clear that they see
|
| Ain’t no room for hidin'
|
| I want it to be you that would know
|
| Yo, I gotta give a shout out to my mom
|
| Yo, Miss Pam you the bomb
|
| You all that miss lady
|
| Yeah, look at your baby
|
| I’m all grown, representin' my home in a zone
|
| I’m proof that the ghetto has more than crack
|
| Man, I’m a black American dream
|
| And I work off pure, self esteem
|
| Just a lump of coal, pressure and time
|
| Changed to a diamond
|
| Out shinin', out rhymin', out climbin'
|
| And once I hit the mountain, spit like your main squeeze poutin'
|
| Fall like the Vatican can stop me
|
| Point the finger if you want, but I don’t know who you got
|
| I rose to the top, fresh out a bottomless pit
|
| And clawed my way, churned, crawled, balled and spit
|
| And every brother is the same as Dice
|
| Cause we all from the streets, we all have the same lighting
|
| Yo, the hoods bug, it’s time to make things right
|
| From north Philly to north Memphis to Cabrini Green
|
| To all the wards, East L.A., y’all know what I mean
|
| We from the same place as MJ and Martin Luther
|
| Hip hop changed corner boys to producers
|
| And if you look at it like that, It don’t seem that bad at all
|
| You wanna know how to make it? |
| Just ask the Raw
|
| No matter fact, the truth is dawg
|
| Yo, you ain’t gotta ask at all, 'cause
|
| If I was gonna tell somebody
|
| I wanna make it clear that they see
|
| Ain’t no room for hidin'
|
| I want it to be you that would know
|
| So I can describe my frustrations, or describe my love
|
| Or describe the feeling, of looking up at a judge
|
| Or describe the girls playin' double dutch
|
| When we play kick ball
|
| Or play catch a girl, get a girl
|
| I know y’all remember that y’all
|
| The hood that I love is the one without drive bys
|
| Aye yo, the one we all love seen through a child’s eyes
|
| I watch Happy Days, everyone was happy with glee
|
| That’s when you think
|
| «Why wasn’t it like that for me?»
|
| But it’s all good because inside me is all hood
|
| Now when I ride inside all leather and wood
|
| Yo, make something out myself?
|
| Didn’t know that I could 'cause livin' with poverty
|
| Used to really bother me deep down inside
|
| My tears never dried, anger kept me grounded
|
| I never used my wings to fly
|
| But I ain’t tell you how I felt about the hood, so y’all can hate it
|
| I told you this so you can love it, and embrace it
|
| If I was gonna tell somebody
|
| I wanna make it clear that they see
|
| Ain’t no room for hidin'
|
| I want it to be you that would know |
