[intro: k-rino]
yeah, this goes out to the hood
every hood in every city
i love the hood
without the hood, who would i be?

[verse 1: k-rino]
i was raised in the dead end, the park is my hood
esperanza, king’s gate, orleans, summer wood
made mistakes, had breaks, some bad, some good
and i can think of plenty things that i would change if i could
born broke, came up out the gates stressing a lot
it be so bad it’s hard to focus on the blessing ya got
blind leading the blind, reason i’m deceiving the mind
wish i could take the best years of my life and freeze ‘em in time
friends faking, not there for i remain so low
we dying so fast i don’t hardly feel the pain no more
and when it’s your turn, don’t fear ‘cause we all must go
just live your life to the fullest and leave it all on the floor
i done had..

[verse 2: k-rino]
you got a dead partner, pour some on the cut for your g
if you could bring him back and ask one question, what would it be?
be careful how you treat your kids ‘cause the future is theirs
might be the answer to your prayers or your worst nightmares
respect mama and daddy, matters what they’ve done
make peace with them who gave you life, your blessing’ll come
boys plexing over north, south, west and east
and our ancestors that died can’t even rest in peace
it’s like they gave their life for nothing ‘cause we throwed it away
just to k!ll each other, talk down and get blowed everyday
in the hood, roaching and poor hustling, trying to bleed
and when you’re gone from this world, what you gon’ leave to your seed?
i done had…

[verse 3: k-rino & bang]
what’s up, boy? what’s the deal, k? man, when you get home?
i’ve been back about two months now, just tryna hold on
i feel that, what you doin’ with yourself these days?
tryna cuff up on some loot but i done ran out of ways
so what’s your plan, what you gon’ do, man?
it ain’t no tellin’, been looking for jobs but ain’t no love for an ex-felon
yeah that’s real, dude, the system got the black man stressing
but as long as you got your health and your right mind it’s a blessing
but it’s depressing, i’m tripping, k, man, i tell ya
from the minute i hit the streets they had me set up for failure
i’m on parole, unemployed and arguing with my girl
being back in jail seems easier than being in the world
i’m ‘bout to jump back in the game, that’s what they want you to do
and don’t you got a son, dog. yeah, he just turned 2
don’t give up, that child needs his daddy, yeah that’s true
wish i could put you on your feet but man i’m struggling too
because of..

[outro: k-rino]
now we all got pain that we try to hide
but we wanna keep it by the [?] side
this is dedicated to the ones that died
although you didn’t make it, lord knows you tried
i still got love even though you’re gone
still in the game and i know it’s wrong
time goes on, it’ll be awhile
i still see you and i see your child
i know somebody feel my pain
try to keep me down but still i can
got another chance to reveal my game
now the only question is, will i change?
