rakontyr clique - the hood lyrics
“f-ck the hood” (4x)
andre:
f-ck the hood in general, lemme get critical
just for a second, america, i grew up in the poor section
of your mess and with no direction, it was depressin’
i saw roaches, hunger, self-hate, and broken homes
and too many young men dead from smokin’ chrome
and i was told this was supposed to be fabulous
but that sh-t don’t add up when you see just how bad it gets
and i hate that all of this is synonymous with black
don’t give a f-ck about nostalgia, i’m never goin’ back
f-ck the hood, and all the foul sh-t it represents
f-ck the hood, ‘cause all the progress that it prevents
“f-ck the hood” yeah, it’s a place that’s still close to me
but f-ck the hood, cause it ain’t where we’re supposed to be
masta:
you think people end up in the ghetto unfortunately
and my people happen to be there disproportionally
truth is, in addition to racist motherf-ckers
it’s the fault of turnin a blind eye to those who suffer
the ones who stood by and did nothing while they were signing
racist sh-t from black codes to today with redlining
oh yeah, look up that bit of niceness
for those who think we stayed in the hood of our own devices
what, you think when civil rights just repealed some racist policies
they said, “oops, our bad, right this way to equality!”
but since we’ve grown up with poverty as the rule
we try to cope by telling ourselves this sh-t is cool
but, naw…
johnny:
such potential unrealized…
so many of our dreams denied…
all my people tryin’ to survive
you’ve got power please don’t idly stand by
blak:
the sh-t is like a haunted house, i’m the voice in the back tellin’ you to get the f-ck out
