Whatever's in your heart is where you be My hood is the Even you look, it's never what you see My hood is the
been down before, up is just a reach 'Cause my hood is the a second wind, then begin again My hood is the
Black magic in the hood, it's but understood Crack addicts, windows, crack wood Even what's bad good, status becomes stood Upon the welcome to the ghetto show
Federal buildings, pissy hallways filled with children children Fiends lips peelin', seems real and What's real is the estate of that we're in The situation great
My man peels weight, so we can plates You might get love but you still hate Through and plates, we communicate Chicago to Brooklyn, real ones do relate
If lyrics sold truth be told I'll be just as rich and famous as Jay-Z Truthfully I wanna rhyme like common Next best thing I do a record common sense
'Cause it's the music, the blues, it's the jazz, it's Soul, rock and roll, the hip hop that we yea It's the gear, it's the flare, it's the Nowadays they'll shoot you they used to shoot the fair

A man in front of the store, beggin' for money and I him say a prayer under his breath, he cursed me Niggaz is thirsty, I heard a drought Up early, servin' their grandmother's house
Sometimes the ghetto desolate The eyes of the hood, yo, is desperate, by the deficit Times and get hard, either get by or get God But you try to get by, like the block keep blockin'
You try to make moves, it's like the car keep stoppin' We in the court, need Cochran, yea I tell them why the weed poppin', in the game you need options No time for feet watchin', me and Kwe keep rockin' for the
Whatever's in heart is where you wanna be My is the ghetto Even when you look, it's never you see My hood is the
I've been down before, up is a reach 'Cause my hood is the a second wind, then begin again My is the ghetto
in your heart is where you wanna be My hood is the Even when you look, never what you see My hood is the
been down before, up is just a reach 'Cause my hood is the a second wind, then begin again My is the ghetto
