Why does gotta suffer so much All love in the hood keeps me in a fuss Last night, me and the almost got smoked We heard gunshots and we "we all broke" A 2 mile chase corners quick god we alright and made it to the bricks Now I gotta a nine i guess These try to peel my cap, so I gotta put em to rest Now is it really the fighting and fuss We killed one of them, killed one of us A young teenage black Gave em a new 40 and he got locked in jail They say thats how supposed to be But I think that kind of life was chosen for me So I up the sin I pray To the to conversate To end all of this
Living inside is not a joke, not a joke I keep on fellas from hood getting smoked Living inside is not a joke, not a joke I keep on seeing fellas from getting smoked Living ghetto is not a joke, not a joke I keep on seeing fellas hood getting smoked inside ghetto is not a joke, not a joke I keep on seeing from hood getting smoked
I wouldn't be if I didn't say I'm the type of person praise everyday in the hood ain't the same They got a gun and change Now they say I changed cause I'm records But I'm still in the handing out some chicken Teenage sistas happy drawls to be quiet, now she do it all It's to undertsand this shit And everybody I say "life's a bitch" My life is a bitch, I made it that So I'm praying to the Lord, change me back
My family's not like they should be And I don't think they will be My grandma is the one that says she loves us So the reason for the everyday scream fuss just got killed last week For my boy on the curb, may he rest in Then they went and Teck Now I'm "is the Juv next?" I don't wanna run when I hide Lord if I go, just make I'm on your side
