Yeah
Every hood`s the same
Every hood`s the same
Come on

They give us guns and drugs
Then wonder why in the f**k we thugs
They wanna count the slugs
Then come around here and f**k with us

They give us guns and drugs
Then wonder why in the f**k we thugs
They wanna count the slugs
Then come around here and f**k with us

I`m from the land of the gang bang
Since I was little, ain`t a god damn thang changed
It`s the same ole same
Bush run s**t like Saddam Hussein

I c**k and aim, clinically insane
To deal with this bulls**t day to day
If I sell some yay or smoke some hay
You bitches wanna throw me up in Pelican`s Bay

Call me an animal up in the system
But who`s the animal that built this prison?
Who`s the animal that invented lower living?
The projects, thank god for Russell Simmons

Thank god for Sugarhill
I`m putting a different kind of steel up to my grille
Y`all know what it is, scared for your own kids
How these ghetto ni**az taken over showbiz

They give us guns and drugs
Then wonder why in the f**k we thugs
They wanna count the slugs
Then come around here and f**k with us

They give us guns and drugs
Then wonder why in the f**k we thugs
They wanna count the slugs
Then come around here and f**k with us

It`s Boyz in the Hood, it`s toys in the hood
Y`all wanna know why it`s noise in the hood?
`Cause there`s drugs in the hood, thugs in the hood
Ni**a killed a crip and a blood in the hood, for real

`Cause when ni**az get tribal
It`s all about survival, nobody liable
I got caught by a five-o
Grandmama came to court with her bible

But when the judge hit the gavel
Now I`m too far from my family to travel
I just came unraveled
Socked the D.A. before I got gaffled

Owned by C.A., state property
Just like the year fifteen fifty three
Looking for me, a one-way ticket out
Don`t understand, what`s so hard to figure out

They give us guns and drugs
Then wonder why in the f**k we thugs
They wanna count the slugs
Then come around here and f**k with us

They give us guns and drugs
Then wonder why in the f**k we thugs
They wanna count the slugs
Then come around here and f**k with us

Damn, I can`t take the pressure
Pulled the forty-four up out the dresser
Grabbed the weight up out the closet
Po-po coming but I`m scared to toss it

Y`all know what happened last time I lost it
Can`t tell you ni**az what the f**kin` boss did
The game got a ni**a exhausted
Gotta go for the plea bargain they offered

Twenty years for what?
Breaking these laws that`s so corrupt
Taking these halls and fillin` `em up
Some powder keg s**t that`s about to erupt

Ay y`all, I`m about to be stuck
Until the year two thousand, what the f**k?
In the hood, don`t press your luck
`Cause these motherf**kers will set you up, word up

They give us guns and drugs
Then wonder why in the f**k we thugs
They wanna count the slugs
Then come around here and f**k with us

They give us guns and drugs
Then wonder why in the f**k we thugs
They wanna count the slugs
Then come around here and f**k with us

Every hood`s the same
Every hood`s the same
Every hood`s the same
Every hood`s the same
Every hood`s the same
Stop trippin` on it

Every hood`s the same
Every hood`s the same
Every hood`s the same
Every hood`s the same
Every hood`s the same
