INTRO:(COOLIO TALKING)

bueschwa minded ass

house niggas who forget their colo. Put on a suit and tie and escape

from

the ghetto and don't never come back.Yeah motherfucker you can run but

Deep down in the jungle where the crack dealers grow, Niggas kill niggas for

steppin on their toe,

A girl is a bitch and a lady is a ho

When anything goes for a little bit of doe, see

Shit get cooked by thugs and crooks

With the knowledge of a scholar but they don't read books

Everyday is a chance that ya life might go

So today is a day that ya gotta get paid

Slang them ki's,make them g's

Do what'cha want but ya sell what'cha please

But don't forger where you come from

Cuz when you do that you're done

Remember your niggas and bitches and the Trojans

And take it to your pockets for some fitness

When ya get it goin and ya got it goin good

Ya better bring back somethin for da hood

HOOK 1

Bring back somethin fo da hood motherfucker!

Bring back somethin fo da hood!

REPEAT

LA County what's goin on?

1993 modern day Babylon

Peace to the niggas from the street

And rest in peace to the others that's six feet deep

Welcome to the fool and he strikes when he's back

And he expects to come around,go around and get ate

Top down,slipped on CO-run they none

Every (?cisscrack?)-CAINE ain't no fun

Black cop white cop *gun shot*

Fuck the colour of skin make sure he shot *gun shot*

Escape from a jail cell,split away from hell

And all I want for Christmas is a Glock and some shells

Billy Boy takes the pictures,what you got ot worry, Five-I-seven on my switch,we

Taddle-tails get dropped an' they get got good

So get this stoob nigga for the hood

HOOK 2

VERSE 3

You must remember dis if you're black and you're rich

One push come to shove they'll take your shit

Martin Luther King didn't wear a diamond ring

But he had a dream to let freedom reign

My homie Red Foxx got played like blocks

Pick em up sticks,jacks and hop-scotch

what station?,aggravation,there's no end to the situation

Cuz niggas need a place to meet,a place to sleep

A place to eat and rest they feet

But nobody really even gives a fuck

That's why so many niggas is maggot'd up,huh

You claimin the hood but you don't back it up

Fool!And when they catch ya ass,they gonna FUCK you up

So when you get it goin and ya got it goin good

You better bring back somethin fo da hood

REPEAT HOOK 1(x 2)
