| 作词 : Clear, Donati | |
| Yea, goin' out to the H double | |
| That's for you, you, and you | |
| They got broke people, poor people, my people, your people | |
| (Wherever I go) Listen | |
| And they won't change, ever change, can't change, don't change | |
| (And everyone knows) | |
| [Verse One] | |
| As I travel through various towns and strange places | |
| I see the same scowls and frowns on the same faces | |
| The game races and cats try to catch it | |
| Before they know it they know death on a first name basis | |
| Whether it's slangin' or banging, drinking or smokin' | |
| There's bound to be one cat thinkin' of loccin' | |
| The hood's like a sitcom | |
| Leave ya bike outside, come back outside, I guarantee your shit gone | |
| Young cats be sellin' the rock | |
| Money busting out they sock mama tellin' them stop | |
| But desperate times call for desperate means | |
| It all seems so simple when you're just a teen | |
| Only take one bad apple to poison the good | |
| This for the girls on the block, the boys in the hood | |
| And wherever I go it's the same as home | |
| It's the H double O D the name is known | |
| [Chorus] | |
| They got broke people, poor people, my people, your people | |
| (Wherever I go) Listen | |
| And they won't change, ever change, can't change, don't change | |
| (And everyone knows) Listen | |
| They got broke people, poor people, my people, your people | |
| (Wherever I go) Listen | |
| And they won't change, ever change, can't change, don't change | |
| (And everyone knows) | |
| [Verse Two] | |
| They got wild and rough blocks where it's hard to trust cops | |
| Get shot on your way to school at the bus stop, damn | |
| That kid was a fine scholar | |
| Hear his mama whine and holler he died for nine dollars | |
| Young mothers trying to learn the ropes | |
| And them one dollar lotto games turn their hopes | |
| They keep hoping that they number coming | |
| They dreamin' about getting rich driving in they hummer dummin' | |
| Old ladies keep they purse in the front | |
| Cuz them fiends on the prowl it's the first of the month | |
| And you still feel good when you there, yup | |
| And you know you in the hood when you there | |
| They got one in every spot on the planet | |
| And if you wasn't raised there you prolly can not stand it | |
| Some call it the hood I'm calling it home | |
| And there's love feel it all in my poem what they got? | |
| [Chorus] | |
| [Verse Three] | |
| H dot O dot O dot D | |
| Should I turn my back on the hood? No not me | |
| Whether P.R., D.R., or the West Indies | |
| Or fifty other spots that are just like these | |
| Chicago know what I mean, Philly as well | |
| Shit I hear nowadays sounds silly as hell | |
| Whether in Miami or in Houston, Texas | |
| Where some so broke they're not used to breakfast | |
| Oakland know what I mean, L.A. too | |
| D.C. feel me, I can tell they do | |
| When will it change? Never I know | |
| And I see the same things wherever I go | |
| [Chorus] | |
| [beat stops] | |
| They got broke people, poor people, my people, your people |
