Lyric Growin Up In The Hood
Wake your punk ass up
The MC Eiht s back in the muthafucking house
Kicking the straight gansta shit for teh 9 1
You know what I m saying yea
Growing up in the hood yea boy 1984
Was the year my peers didn t know what was in store
A little hard head kid came abade
Time to pay my dues learn the tricks of the trade
And at home it s the same ass story
Mom s treat me like she don t even know me
But my younger brother s got much clout
I can t take this shit so I bones the hell out
And roll wit the pack of wicked muthafuckas
No shorts are taken, we re down black brothers
A little nigga wit no problems at all
Fucked up and killed my first 8-ball
Quick up the stairs so little sucker stop looking
Stagger to the house so I can collect my whooping
But watch out cause a little nigga s up to no good
Growin up in the hood
(Chorus)
Life ain t nuttin but bitches and money
Cause in the city you live and let die
Nutting but bitches and money
I got hard times and realize, ?(skate)? sometimes I wonder
But it just seems that the hood could took me under
Police sweat my tip and keep harrassing
Trying to lock me up cause I keep on blasting
Community trying to shut me out
But the money keeps flowing and I got much clout
Wit the cluckers, the brother back street punk suckers
Try to break me out fool, you be a short muthafucka
Always strapping, eager to peal a cap
I set up a trap, put your foot to a nap
Cause I grew up fast on the wrong side of the law
So watch me take 2 to your jaw
Don t enter my hood homeboy
Not a robocop, a robogansta, ready to destroy
I take chances cause life to be ain t no good
Growin up in the hood
Life ain t nuttin but bitches and money
Where I m at if you re soft, you re lost
Nuttin but bitches and money
1987, I m back on the scene, out of jail, I m legit
And I m fucking up shit
I m ready to peal a sucker s cap
And I heard that my hood was making snaps
As I precede to make my riches
Just like the neighborhood kingpin, pimp, and all these bitches
Task force trying to roll deep
But I m playing these punk fools cheap
Niggas rolled by and try to blast, it didn t work
I seen the bullets flying and fool, I hit the dirt
Bullets fly through the window
Hits my brother, down goes my mother
As I m rolling, I m hitting my switches
Looking for the punk ass, sons of bitches
I found them, before I kill em, I said you fucked up good
Got ta handle that, growin up in the hood
Chorus
yea-a-a-a
A brother s on the run, I ve got a hand in my stash box
Wanted cause I m serving them the potent fat rocks
And my face is like a household name
Everybody warns their kids about the dope game
But I m still makin gmy profit
And the one time just can t stop it
So I keep hiding my face
No time to waste, they got me on the chase
Now the neighborhood s on my line
Cause some punk ass fool had drop the dime
5-0 at my doo at 8 o clock
Rush to the toilet so I could flush the rock
Out the backdoor, freeze, I heard a shout
Am I sho , yo I guess I got no clout
But it s murder one, I m the victim, damn, that ain t good
Growin up in the hood
The MC Eiht s back in the muthafucking house
Kicking the straight gansta shit for teh 9 1
You know what I m saying yea
Growing up in the hood yea boy 1984
