Hood Anthem |
| Some people don’t know what it means to really be hood |
| They think you’re mean, just disrespectful, and you’re up to know good |
| They think these brothers don’t know nothing else but bling and white tees |
| And they think that all these women can do is somebody’s weave |
| They think we’re hustlers, gangsters, and goons riding by |
| But be easy with your mouth |
| Cause you don’t know nothin' 'bout the life that gets lived |
| The struggles we deal, it’s hard some days man |
| If you feel me, then say «I'm hood» |
| Yes, I’m hood, H-O-O-D |
| Don’t speak on it if you don’t know what it means |
| I was raised in the hood, overcame in the hood |
| Not ashamed of the hood, cause the hood is in me |
| Yes, I’m hood, H-O-O-D |
| Don’t speak on it if you don’t know what it means |
| I was raised in the hood, overcame in the hood |
| Not ashamed of the hood, cause the hood is in me |
| Everybody put your hands up and rep the hood |
| If you wanna you can stand up, I know it’s good |
| Don’t be ashamed of the hood, be in the change in the hood |
| Ain’t nothin' strange 'bout the hood, it’s in everybody |
| No matter what you do, they’ll never see us no different |
| No matter what we accomplish |
| We gettin' honors for Grammy’s, Billboard chart toppers |
| Thought they could stop us, but we still got an Oscar |
| They can give it up, because we thinkin' 'bout them, and that’s a wrap |
| It’s a movement, baby, and it ain’t no stoppin' that |
| So I’mma keep doin' me, I hope you keep doin' you |
| We’re look out for one another |
| At the end of the day, I’m still hood |
| Yes, I’m hood, H-O-O-D |
| Don’t speak on it if you don’t know what it means |
| I was raised in the hood, overcame in the hood |
| Not ashamed of the hood, cause the hood is in me |
| Yes, I’m hood, H-O-O-D |
| Don’t speak on it if you don’t know what it means |
| I was raised in the hood, overcame in the hood |
| Not ashamed of the hood, cause the hood is in me |
| Everybody put your hands up and rep the hood |
| If you wanna you can stand up, I know it’s good |
| Don’t be ashamed of the hood, be in the change in the hood |
| Ain’t nothin' strange 'bout the hood, it’s in everybody |
| I don’t matter if you got some hood in your blood |
| It don’t make you any less, represent it like, «what?» |
| It don’t matter, it makes you more real then the rest |
| People think it’s disrespect, but consider it a blessing |
| Cause you grew up on another side |
| Saw the world with a different eye |
| People don’t realize |
| So we learn to appreciate the little things, or the joy life brings |
| Ain’t nothin' wrong with bein' hood |
| Yes, I’m hood, H-O-O-D |
| Don’t speak on it if you don’t know what it means |
| I was raised in the hood, overcame in the hood |
| Not ashamed of the hood, cause the hood is in me |
| Yes, I’m hood, H-O-O-D |
| Don’t speak on it if you don’t know what it means |
| I was raised in the hood, overcame in the hood |
| Not ashamed of the hood, cause the hood is in me |
