[Intro: MC Eiht]
Yeah, yeah
Yeah!
We real hood with it
Yeah, we keep the street, ya' heard?
Compton to East Bay
My hometown Alchemist on the beat (yeah)
Beating it up down low, get it in
Yeah

[Verse 1: MC Eiht]
I'm tryna get high, low pass that
I go hard on the ho, where your ass at?
A rap bitch in the gack, complete the mix
Compton with the wordplay, cop your fix
You in the hood now, it's OGs
One times, more money, couple enemies
Anybody kill in the city with bad dudes
All for the paper so homie it's bad news
West town glow up with thе best sound
Couple shots spin your motherfuckin' chеst round
'Cause nowadays, n***as so cute
Hands to the side like "Please don't shoot"
I guess Eiht got another death threat
Keep it hood all the day still the best bet
N***as know the set, we ain't gotta say it
It's gangsta rap n***a, so yeah go and play it
[Hook: MC Eiht]
We keep it hood, you know the deal
We from the streets, that's how we feel
'Cause any means, I need the dollar bill
Yeah, yeah, yeah homie, we sold real
We keep it hood, you know the deal
We from the streets, that's how we feel
'Cause any means, I need the dollar bill
Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah, we sold real

[Verse 2: Spice 1]
N***a we be hitting them corners like they do in Daytona
Blowing on kush, it's two of the realest n***as from California
Look n***a, we smash shit, repercussions with no discussion
When fucking with bosses, n***a, don't attempt to step in my office
With that bullshit, handle your business accordingly
You'll find your body in the bank disfigured horribly (Blow!)
We keep it hood, n***a we from the streets
Infrared beam playing hide and seek
Shit I stay hungry, still ain't nobody killer
"Ayy, I go hard too", bitch come tend to your n***a
Make me some tacos and bitch write after that
We playing hide and go-get-it and I'mma hit and from the back
Money is put up power, power protect money
Even got some cutthroats to cut a n***a throat for me
My brain down low game, that 20 gigs
And when I hit you with it, it got more power than a big ring (Blow!)
[Chorus: MC Eiht]
We keep it hood, you know the deal
We from the streets, that's how we feel
'Cause any means, I need the dollar bill
Yeah, yeah homie, we sold real
We keep it hood, you know the deal
We from the streets, that's how we feel
'Cause any means, I need the dollar bill
Yeah, yeah, yeah-yeah, we sold real
