IN MY HOOD Lyrics

Love and the power

Minutes after hours

I can't live a normal life

I was ravaged of my delight

Do I ever know from wrong and right?

The ways I lived wasn't even bright

Born up in the hood

Did stuff I never should

I been treated like junk

I think back then I acted like a punk

In my hood

Childhood of no good

Rough I grew up

Felt like I was in the dumps

At the slightest I didn't act like a chump

The procedures of existence feeling more of junk

I was beaten and abused

A mouth I had that I perused

I take a look back at my bad attitude

At least I still had my gratitude

Thankfulness I didn't get popped

Because I could've been laying on the road lined with chalk

Right down from my block

Dreams I chased

Turned out to be a waste

In my hood

Childhood of no good

Rough I grew up

Felt like I was in the dumps

At the slightest I didn't act like a chump

The procedures of existence feeling more of junk

Outrage I was

Out of control mostly became a plus

Independent I didn't fit in

There I laid inside a bin

Hidden from all reality

A homeless man I really became

A long road I claim

You know life is not a game

Becareful how you talk or might have a weapon at your aim

In my hood

Childhood of no good Rough I grew up

Felt like I was in the dumps

At the slightest I didn't act like a chump

The procedures of existence feeling more of junk
