And police chases
They don't want the hood life, they want hood relations

Getting payed off my pain

[Verse 2: Jay Rock]
Drug dealers on the block, feends looking for hard rock
N***as on the rooftop, choppers ain't afraid of coppers
They come through, they seeing them doctors
Put them in I.C.U
Get them hood rats poison ivy too
[?]
[?]
From hustlers that wanna harvest it
[?]
Dice games played on the side of the building
[?] children
Now adays anybody can play the victom
Straight bullits [?]
In the city [?]
N***as go on project living
And that's why I can't stop, won't stop
Till ya'll do stop getting payed off my pain
Just the backdrop
[Chorus: Jay Black]
[?] won't change

In the hood, in the hood

[Verse 3: Kendrick Lamar]
[?] hold hands [?]
Give them a mouthfull like the neighborhood dental
[?] everything they pretend to
Be, the streets, lay down on the ground
And sleep
This my home like first base
Balling on the curb like a pitcher
The erge of a 187 [?]
[?] like the [?]
[?]
[?]
[?] white T
[?] dump the gun and just start running
The ghetto chef [?] onion
[?] tear you apart
Can't stop, won't stop
Till everybody stop
Payed off our pain
That's the backdrop
[Chorus: Jay Black]
[?] won't change
[?] give up that life
[?]
Someone always gets [?]
[?] in the hood
In the hood, in the hood
[?]
