Da Hood - Da Youngsta's |
| [00:24.53] |
Another day in the hood |
| [00:25.65] |
I awake from the sound of a gunshot |
| [00:27.77] |
Pop pop pop who needs a damn alarm clock |
| [00:30.28] |
I got a homie out there clocking the white rocks |
| [00:32.63] |
He carries a hype glock but he came to a slight stop |
| [00:35.27] |
He found himself behind bars |
| [00:36.92] |
Collected more scars got right out and broke more laws |
| [00:40.16] |
Some people wonder is it just because he live in the inner city |
| [00:42.86] |
He wanna be a hood like Frank Nitti |
| [00:44.88] |
Cause when she's rolling the streets she don't care |
| [00:46.94] |
He'll stick you up for your money |
| [00:48.29] |
And make you strip to your underwear |
| [00:49.93] |
I know it's kinda pathetic |
| [00:51.52] |
But where I live at you get used to the sound of the paramedics |
| [00:54.88] |
Because it's brothers like him all around here |
| [00:57.12] |
Ain't nowhere to go so you gotta stay down here |
| [00:59.74] |
Cause if it ain't another brother shot dead |
| [01:01.87] |
It's a junkie od-in laying on his death bed |
| [01:04.61] |
This is the type of thing that I see everyday |
| [01:06.76] |
Everything is gloomy and grey but what can I say |
| [01:09.59] |
I'm still surviving cause I'm taking the bad with the good |
| [01:12.17] |
It's just another day in the hood |
| [01:13.86] |
Da hood da hood da hood da hood da hood |
| [01:17.86] |
It's just another day in the hood |
| [01:18.83] |
Da hood da hood da hood da hood da hood |
| [01:22.88] |
Another day in the hood a kid is caught in a crossfire |
| [01:26.17] |
Gunfire lighten the streets like fireworks |
| [01:29.01] |
Prostitutes sell their body for drugs and loot |
| [01:31.40] |
Flagging down cars with businessmen in suits |
| [01:34.05] |
They always come to the hard parts |
| [01:35.72] |
Filled with the dealers swindlers hustlers and car sharks |
| [01:38.89] |
Gun shell that grabbed lives litter the playground |
| [01:41.22] |
So tell me where the little kids gonna play now |
| [01:43.68] |
Going to school I gotta walk through the metal detector |
| [01:46.45] |
Cause too many kids they pack tools |
| [01:48.53] |
A lot of kids my age they want the fast money |
| [01:51.10] |
Because their moms and pops never had money |
| [01:53.52] |
Out of nowhere they wearin' the hype gear |
| [01:55.81] |
Don't nobody care to tell the kids to hold it right there |
| [01:58.37] |
Only your friends wonder where you got the money from |
| [02:00.98] |
Two years ago you was nothing but a young buck |
| [02:03.52] |
Now you're rollin' with a roughneck troop |
| [02:05.23] |
Looking for kids to recruit to your roughneck group |
| [02:08.07] |
They try to tell you that it ain't that hard |
| [02:10.10] |
You can make mad money selling d**e by the school yard |
| [02:13.13] |
But either way I take the bad with the good |
| [02:15.00] |
Cause to me it's just another day in the hood |
| [02:17.82] |
Da hood da hood da hood da hood da hood |
| [02:21.56] |
It's just another day in the hood |
| [02:22.76] |
Da hood da hood da hood da hood da hood |
| [02:26.75] |
Another day in the hood a man is laying on the ground |
| [02:29.76] |
But he ain't dead it's just a homeless man named Fred |
| [02:32.60] |
Always asking for a quarter and asked me to marry his daughter |
| [02:35.86] |
So he can get off the cruddy corner |
| [02:37.66] |
I know this man is really mentally ill but still |
| [02:40.02] |
Hard to kill so I hand him a dollar bill |
| [02:42.52] |
Cause through the winter and the summer |
| [02:44.18] |
A fifth of wine on the side keeps the man from goin' under |
| [02:47.04] |
I know some chick named Helen always beggin' and yellin' |
| [02:50.61] |
Begging for money but they gettin' nothing |
| [02:52.20] |
Cause if you give her some cash flow fast |
| [02:54.16] |
She's going straight across the street to the dopeman to get a blast |
| [02:57.27] |
This type of thing I see through my young eyes |
| [02:59.54] |
So I realize I gotta uprise |
| [03:02.08] |
And stand my ground like a grown man |
| [03:04.26] |
I seen more drama in the streets than an old man |
| [03:06.97] |
And I admit it ain't easy |
| [03:08.66] |
Lookin' out my window's like watchin' Baretta on TV |
| [03:11.68] |
Cop car chases niggaz smackin' girls in their faces |
| [03:14.66] |
And redneck cops that are racist |
| [03:16.81] |
But either way I take the bad with the good |
| [03:18.84] |
Cause to me it's just another day in the hood |
| [03:21.29] |
Da hood da hood da hood da hood da hood |
| [03:24.84] |
It's just another day in the hood |
| [03:26.10] |
Da hood da hood da hood da hood da hood |
| [03:29.97] |
It's just another day in the hood |
| [03:30.99] |
Da hood da hood da hood da hood da hood |
| [03:34.59] |
It's just another day in the hood |
| [03:36.02] |
Da hood da hood da hood da hood da hood |
| [03:39.46] |
It's just another day in the hood |
