"In My Hood" Lyrics

(Chorus)
In my hood, boy meets girl,
girl falls in love with a thug,
in my hood, thug gets caught now his dream is locked
up, take a look in my hood single mother raising kids
on they own what a shame, daddy still out there stuck
in the game and I cant point the finger cuz I don't
know who to blame, but I want to make a change of mind.

(Verse)
I bet you didn't know I, I come from the rainiest skies,
but where I'm from i feel the powers have died
(who the fuck is that has no gun but say I'm goint stay in fight)
see the future through my eyes even though there's
gritty in the ghetto paradise I know that drey is listening
pac is listening, put up your lighter if there?
s somebody that your missing in the hood

(Chorus)
In my hood, boy meets girl,
girl falls in love with a thug,
in my hood, thug gets caught now his dream is locked
up, take a look in my hood single mother raising kids
on they own what a shame, daddy still out there stuck
in the game and I cant point the finger cuz i don't
know who to blame, but i want to make a change of mind.

(Verse)
now til you know what its like,
when you cant even sleep a night,
hear my homies speaking Spanish outside
(speaking Spanish ........
.) sounds of the ambulance,
here the sounds of the fire trucks,
sounds of the police sirens, all bodies spraying

(Chorus)
In my hood, boy meets girl,
girl falls in love with a thug,
in my hood, thug gets caught now his dream is locked
up, take a look in my hood single mother raising kids
on they own what a shame, daddy still out there stuck
in the game and i cant point the finger cuz i don't
know who to blame, but i want to make a change of mind.

(Verse)
I'm lonely in this good heat where its cold,
all my people dying one by one now this is wrong,
i recall when i was younger hide and seek we use
play , now its such a shame as if those memories away,
i could feel it in my fingers,
i could feel it in my soul,
but i don't want to leave it ,
i don't want to let it go,
so i pick up on the beat and I?
m a play some classical, hip hop, and R&B, and now the hood about to go.

(Chorus).
In my hood, boy meets girl,
girl falls in love with a thug,
in my hood, thug gets caught now his dream is locked
up, take a look in my hood single mother raising kids
on they own what a shame, daddy still out there stuck
in the game and i cant point the finger cuz i don't
know who to blame, but i want to make a change of mind.
