Lyrics Hood Gone Love It - Jay Rock, Kendrick Lamar

Hood Gone Love It

You ain’t gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it
You ain’t gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it
Watch a young nigga show his ass out in public
I got the whole block bumpin'
You ain’t gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it
You ain’t gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it
Watch a young nigga show his ass out in public
Na, na, na, na, now, now you know what this is
Tell 'em it’s a celebration, bitches
With the barbeque pits and the mini-bikes
Mini-skirts, Hennessy’s, and the Miller Lites
Domino tables, who got big six?
Where I’m from we do concrete back flips
Flip flop, flip flop, flip flop back
To the ghetto’s where I bring Hip Hop back
Real niggas love me, they tell me keep it pushin'
The only niggas be for waste out of central bullets
County jails and the lock downs up north
Said I should have it if Scarface pass the torch
That’s how they feel Jack, built much more than rap
This that project haircut in the cul-de-sac
This is where hoe’s ain’t front you them boulders at
Meet your quota whenever I put a quote on a track, nigga
Keepin' it G ain’t nothin'
You ain’t gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it
You ain’t gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it
Watch a young nigga show his ass out in public
I got the whole block bumpin'
You ain’t gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it
You ain’t gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it
Watch a young nigga show his ass out in public
From Compton to Baltimore I’ma kill it
I buy a morgue in a minute
The public house, the plastic couch of a section they tint it
The Regal window is tinted
The air conditioner broke but I’m cool enough
To ensure you my ride isn’t Eskimo, huh?
And I peel off in the midst of gettin' my clothes off
And I thrive off energies from the inner cities that we lost, huh?
I’m puttin' the ghetto on top of my back
And I live in the back of the jungle
Lions, tigers, bears, oh my
Hear the siren, walk up, drive by
Shooters, looters, federal fed intruders
The engines on back of scooters
The real can recognize real
And we need to know just who you are
You are in the presence of many presents
Kendrick the gift for the future, oh yeah, I said it
Thug life, good kid mad city, mad respect
Representin' the hood right
Keepin' it G ain’t nothin'
You ain’t gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it
You ain’t gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it
Watch a young nigga show his ass out in public
I got the whole block bumpin'
You ain’t gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it
You ain’t gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it
Watch a young nigga show his ass out in public
The home girls tells me I’m the shit
I break them off so they can buy some outfits
I buy them sons a pack of peppers, some new joints
Give 'em the game, school 'em on what’s really important
It’s how I was raised, the OG’s had me
Thirteen fresh off the porch, slangin' cabby
But I’m wiser now, show all my young niggers
There’s other ways you get them dollars and funds nigga
Comin' down in an old school, so cool
Whip like a five bar call it so cool
You don’t know the tribulations that we go through
Put your ears to the speakers I’ma show you
I paint the picture so perfect
In my CD you see Mona Lisa in person
Got my Crips and esse’s at arm reach, one one
Keepin' it G ain’t nothin'
You ain’t gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it
You ain’t gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it
Watch a young nigga show his ass out in public
I got the whole block bumpin'
You ain’t gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it
You ain’t gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it
Watch a young nigga show his ass out in public
