| Yeah, this goes out to the hood
|
| Every hood in every city
|
| I love the hood
|
| Without the hood, who would I be?
|
| I was raised in the dead end, The Park is my hood
|
| Esperanza, King’s Gate, Orleans, Summer Wood
|
| Made mistakes, had breaks, some bad, some good
|
| And I can think of plenty things that I would change if I could
|
| Born broke, came up out the gates stressing a lot
|
| It be so bad it’s hard to focus on the blessing ya got
|
| Blind leading the blind, reason I’m deceiving the mind
|
| Wish I could take the best years of my life and freeze ‘em in time
|
| Friends faking, not there for I remain so low
|
| We dying so fast I don’t hardly feel the pain no more
|
| And when it’s your turn, don’t fear ‘cause we all must go
|
| Just live your life to the fullest and leave it all on the floor
|
| I done had.
|
| You got a dead partner, pour some on the cut for your G
|
| If you could bring him back and ask one question, what would it be?
|
| Be careful how you treat your kids ‘cause the future is theirs
|
| Might be the answer to your prayers or your worst nightmares
|
| Respect mama and daddy, matters what they’ve done
|
| Make peace with them who gave you life, your blessing’ll come
|
| Boys plexing over north, south, west and east
|
| And our ancestors that died can’t even rest in peace
|
| It’s like they gave their life for nothing ‘cause we throwed it away
|
| Just to kill each other, talk down and get blowed everyday
|
| In the hood, roaching and poor hustling, trying to bleed
|
| And when you’re gone from this world, what you gon' leave to your seed?
|
| I done had…
|
| What’s up, boy? |
| What’s the deal, K? |
| Man, when you get home?
|
| I’ve been back about two months now, just tryna hold on
|
| I feel that, what you doin' with yourself these days?
|
| Tryna cuff up on some loot but I done ran out of ways
|
| So what’s your plan, what you gon' do, man?
|
| It ain’t no tellin', been looking for jobs but ain’t no love for an ex-felon
|
| Yeah that’s real, dude, the system got the black man stressing
|
| But as long as you got your health and your right mind it’s a blessing
|
| But it’s depressing, I’m tripping, K, man, I tell ya
|
| From the minute I hit the streets they had me set up for failure
|
| I’m on parole, unemployed and arguing with my girl
|
| Being back in jail seems easier than being in the world
|
| I’m ‘bout to jump back in the game, that’s what they want you to do
|
| And don’t you got a son, dog. |
| Yeah, he just turned 2
|
| Don’t give up, that child needs his daddy, yeah that’s true
|
| Wish I could put you on your feet but man I’m struggling too
|
| Because of.
|
| Now we all got pain that we try to hide
|
| But we wanna keep it by the side
|
| This is dedicated to the ones that died
|
| Although you didn’t make it, Lord knows you tried
|
| I still got love even though you’re gone
|
| Still in the game and I know it’s wrong
|
| Time goes on, it’ll be awhile
|
| I still see you and I see your child
|
| I know somebody feel my pain
|
| Try to keep me down but still I can
|
| Got another chance to reveal my game
|
| Now the only question is, will I change? |
