Hood Now (Outro) |
What do you do when it’s so unequal? |
Wear Michael Jordan’s with your tuxedos |
It’s hood now |
It’s hood now |
Yea, yea |
It’s «hood"now |
Public school system only teaching parts |
So the school of hard knocks is what make you street smart |
You’re hood now |
Hood now |
Yea, yea |
Hood now |
Open fire hydrant 'front the liquor store |
Kool and perm ads all on the billboards |
You in the hood now |
You in the hood now |
That’s right |
You in the hood now |
Ramen noodle soups, you make the best |
Water in the milk to make it stretch |
That’s the hood now |
That’s the hood now |
That’s the hood now |
That’s the hood now |
Ivy League was running really well then |
They slipped up and let Cornel in |
It’s hood now |
It’s hood now |
Yes it is |
It’s hood now |
In Miami Beach, it’s rich white folks |
But Memorial Day, «you know who"do the most |
It’s hood now |
It’s hood now |
It’s hood now |
Yea, it’s hood now |
And house shoes is for the house fool |
The homies wear 'em out, how cool |
It’s hood now |
It’s hood now |
That’s hood now |
Oh yea, that’s hood now |
And that Mercedes Benz, on them giant rims |
Open up the trunk and see 'bout twenty ten’s |
That’s hood now |
It’s hood now |
That’s hood now |
Oh yea, that’s hood now |
And diamond chains was for kings and queens |
But since we got to 'em they’ll never be the same |
They hood now |
They hood now |
Bling, Bling |
It’s hood now |
You pissed her off, you broke the rules |
Her earrings out, she taking off her shoes |
It’s hood now |
It’s hood now |
It’s about to be… |
Really hood now |
Chop up Jazz, loop up the Rock |
Sample the Blues, call it Hip-Hop |
It’s hood now |
It’s hood now |
Yea mayne |
It’s hood now |
We took that hurt, made it into songs |
God bless the child that’s got his own |
Sayin' it’s hood now |
Sayin' it’s hood now |
Pants saggin' right off my ass |
I sit it down, right in first class |
It’s hood now |
It’s hood now |
Yes sir |
It’s hood now |
Fancy restaurant, dress code |
T-shirt, gym shorts |
It’s hood now |
It’s hood now |
Hallelujah |
It’s hood now |
Fashion shows, with fancy clothes |
You see Mr. West right in the front row |
It’s hood now |
It’s hood now |
That’s what it means |
It’s hood now |
At the Oscar’s, P on the sticks |
And the winner is… Three-6 |
It’s hood now |
It’s hood now |
Uh oh… |
It’s hood now |
We took that hurt, made it into songs |
God bless the child that’s got his own |
Sayin' it’s hood now |
Sayin' it’s hood now |
You had Elvis Presley and he was crackin' |
But guess what? |
Here comes Michael Jackson |
It’s hood now |
It’s hood now |
That’s right |
It’s hood now |
Pro sports, them was yo' courts |
But you let us in, so on and so forth |
It’s hood now |
It’s hood now |
Uh huh |
It’s hood now |
They gave us scraps, some of it old |
We cooked it up and called it «soul» |
It’s good now |
It’s good now |
You like that? |
It’s hood now |
And you know me, I don’t vote |
But the White House, you already know |
It’s hood now |
It’s hood now |
Yes sir |
It’s hood now |
We took that hurt, made it into songs |
God bless the child that’s got his own |
Sayin' it’s hood now |
Sayin' it’s hood now |
Yea |
You know I had to do it |
Can’t forget where you came from |
One for the ghetto |
Two for the hood |
Three for the all |
Four for the good |
Yea |
And we out |
This the great |
I mean, God is Great |
