MY HOOD Lyrics by Josh P

0

(hook)
Im tryna stay alive
Make this money till i die
Hope to make it big
Hopefully to see a smile
On mommy face
When i buy that house
Thats all she ever wanted Was to see me make out (x2)
My hood
Guns are slining
Fiends are breeding
While im looking out my window
My mom was sleeping
She kept me from harm
Never want no wrongs
From her last child
As i creep
To put my sneakers on
She heard my footsteps
Tryna creep out
Into them project halls
Made my way outside to play some ball
Even tho i knew consequences
Couldn't keep a lil boy locked up in cages
Then again
What you expect from a mother 6
Almost lost her last child to system
And his pop's sick
Only income in the house she bringing
Working all night just to make sure we eat right
Mama i know your feet tired
Sit down for a while
Let me make right
All them miles you walk you talk
Crying that you done
When you see me movin up
I Owe you a lifetime
(hook)
Im tryna stay alive
Make this money till i die
Hope to make it big
Hopefully to see a smile
On mommy face
When i buy that house
Thats all she ever wanted Was to see me make out (x2)
My hood
Yeah uh
As i get older
The streets
Get colder
Ain't no telling when you step out
If your life is over
I seen it happen before
My man died
Playing b-ball
Now his son is left without no father
Why the hell
Would you take a life
So innocent
Who the hell is you
To decide
Who lives
Who breathes
Who get a chance
To see
The finer things
Life brings
You ain't god
You fucking coward
Oh lord i pray
All my hard work pays
I make out the hood today
Get the fam. (abbreviation for family) A better place
Some where up in the hills
Where life won't stress them
And my little nieces play around without no bullets crossing
Just my dream
Hope to turn reality
If you just believe
In your dreams
Then maybe you can see
The vision that i see
When i think about how im gonna make it out
When i focus on that route
(hook)
Im tryna stay alive
Make this money till i die
Hope to make it big
Hopefully to see a smile
On mommy face
When i buy that house
Thats all she ever wanted Was to see me make out (x2)
My hood x2
