Hood

Hoods, like in NYC, hearing all these gunshots and they messing up my tendencies
I'm praying for the people, that got shot, and now they up with wings
Oh God, I need your help, Please God, protect my family
Going to church on sunday in the hood I feel the intensity
See the opps looking at front and back like I'm a deputy
Like nah I ain't the cops, but all these girls from tennessee
Cause they say they wanna party, but we in the hood
I'm telling em I ain't poppin bottles, but they saying that I should
I'm up at the club, and God got the whole earth on his foot
But I'm running from my opps, I tellin them we brotherhood
They tryna shoot me up, and hang me by head or my caput
I'm feeling like Haman cause I got hanged instead of Mordecai
All these people in the hood, they running up the gun supply
I'm dying on the inside, and it feel like I got no heart to reapply
My vision through a bird's eye view, In the hood I ain't no fly guy
//Hook/Chorus
In the Hood, it's banging up with shots
I'm burnt down, feeling like I'm in a body cot
I'm feeling like I left my body, WWII atomic bombs
I feeling so dizzy in the hood like the prophecies of Psalms
Explodin up like Hiroshima but blowing in like Hinata
I ain't no Goku, but in this hood they call me Vegeta
All arms they going "bam, bam, bam", and I don't even got a gun on me
When I set the title, they all screaming, and saying don't use the M3
God, I need you in the prayers for this country
Cause in this hood it can't be over your head, or you'll get shot bluntly
//Lil sea
In the hood it's crazy, they lettin it roll down
They leaving soldiers from the war, takin off their crown
Leaving them in blood, and I praying to God for the hood
Cause these hoodlums think they tough and as big as a bigfoot
God, I'm praying to you, there's blood all over their childhood
Hood, Hood, I'm going wild, and I ain't even watching boxing
They all shooting fam, and they knocking all their socks in
They be laughing both, letting it go high and low like stocks
They shooting letting blood wheeze like this a browser, Firefox
It's all shadows in this hood, I can't see where they at
It's all shadows in this hood, they leave people on the mat
It all shadows in this hood, they leave it black on black
They tearing lives down, as if they're a useless artifact
//Ending
In this Hood, I'm trying to make it out alive
In this Hood, I'm trying to reach out and try to save as many lives
I'm praying to my father, help me keep my eyes on the prize
Cause the opps leaving me confused, they rolling numbers like they dice
In this Hood, I'm tryna be the cat and not the mice, cuz I don't want to die,
I want to live my life
God, help me in this hood, all the stress and all the strife
Please, don't let me got shot or murdered by a knife
In this Hood, I'm tryna to live trying to make it out alive
In this Hood, I'm trying to reach out and try to save as many lives
I'm praying to my father, help me keep my eyes on the prize
In this Hood, I'm tryna to live trying to make it out alive
In this Hood, I'm trying to reach out and try to save as many lives
I'm praying to my father, help me keep my eyes on the prize
Yeah, I'm in this hood, and I'm keeping my mind on the highs
