Welcome To My Hood

[jD][Chorus]
Queens bridge welcome to my hood
I'm a show you all what's really good
Welcome to my hood
Death in the air
If you want to live you got to say a prayer
Red Fern welcome to my hood
I'm a show you all what's really good
Welcome to my hood
Death in the air
If you want to live you got to say a prayer

[jD][Verse1]
Welcome to the bridge
To my borough my building
To the place catch a case court date for drug dealings
Turn the page
Journey through the streets of the Queen
From Chi city to the flooded streets of Saint New Orleans
Subway cars
Hollis Park
Adolescents in Deville's busting shots at different bloods
Claiming different sets
Banging different cards
In different parts of the large apple
Queen of spades,
Learned to walk and talk inside the Devils lasso
Jakes patrol the city blocks posted on the avenues
Bloomberg gave the go ahead caging us like animals
Walls painted pistol
Let off a black haze
Sean Bell shot 50 times they thought they'd get away
This is my hood
Q-U-E-E-N-S
From Sunny Side to the Gardens
Elmhurst and all the rest
Italian Ices' crazy crack the hydrants in the hood
Back to the block I wouldn't leave if I could
So welcome

[jD][Chorus]
Brownsville welcome to my hood
I'm a show you all what's really good
Welcome to my hood
Death in the air
If you want to live you got to say a prayer
LES welcome to my hood
I'm a show you all what's really good
Welcome to my hood
Death in the air
If you want to live you got to say a prayer

[Oplus][Verse2]
Welcome to my hood
To my city my land
To the place were the law roll up in the vans
And try to can us
Journey through the streets of the Chi
From CA to NY
Hustling no the system don't understand us
Soldiers be concealing there hammers under bandanas
Legends are apprehended for antics on city cameras
Go for broke or go bananas
You know the game
Try to rise above it but your Souls In Chains
My soul remains
United with the struggle to grind
The under dogs try to do right but struggle with crime
It troubles my mind
The righteous living in the city broke
Where all the ghetto children got to live as adults
This is my hood the streets that made me crazy
The same avenues that raised me cradled me as a baby
Maybe I'm created to save the hood
Back to the block I wouldn't leave if I could
So welcome

[jD][Chorus]
Cabrini Green welcome to my hood
I'm a show you all what's really good
Welcome to my hood
Death in the air
If you want to live you got to say a prayer
U Dub welcome to my hood
I'm a show you all what's really good
Welcome to my hood
Death in the air
If you want to live you got to say a prayer

[jD][Verse3]
Welcome to our hood to our areas
Our gutters and our ghettos
Three digits and a skyline representing where we step through
Walk the blocks
Chuck Taylors on the cement
Laced up packed from the waist up
Stacking bricks of cheap meth
Supreme Team McGriff
Fat Cat
The dream team
Oral addicts serve the fix
The city the grind low ranks on the lookout
The blue ride by smoke a pig like a cookout
Cumulate the criminals
Subtract um' by the church goers
Square root the sum, Sad to say it but the perp's potent
Vernon Ave. with the .40s smoking
Homie got shot rough no love
Affiliate with the filthiest dealiest baddest bunch
In my city
Great walls divine
Puerto rocks from the Spanish blocks
Russians from the east side
The first Italian Polish Germ representing what's good
QB A to F all day all hood

[jD][Chorus]
Montebello welcome to my hood
I'm a show you all what's really good
Welcome to my hood
Death in the air
If you want to live you got to say a prayer
San Bernardino welcome to my hood
I'm a show you all what's really good
Welcome to my hood
Death in the air
If you want to live you got to say a prayer
LA welcome to my hood
I'm a show you all what's really good
Welcome to my hood
Death in the air
If you want to live you got to say a prayer
New York welcome to my hood
I'm a show you all what's really good
Welcome to my hood
Death in the air
If you want to live you got to say a
