[Intro: Rick Ross]
We had to refinance, this the refinanced version
Which is a good thing, so If you owe one fifty on it
You hit you a juug in the street
Take them a 40 lump, now you owe one-tenth
We refinancing this year, we paying everything off
Let's get in touch with all our debt owers

[Verse 1: Nipsey Hussle]
Ayo D, we go foreign silly, just my section, might throw a billy
In my section, we gettin' busy, operation buy back the 60's
Gentrified the whole inner city, genocide the whole inner city
N***as buying up every building, investments tyin' up every milly
Roundtable turn to campfire, told my n***as they was vampires
Never let 'em say 'til you finished, one strip mall, got three business
Bounce back like John Diddly, build brands like Sean Diddy
Human hair coming from the East
N***as sellin' bundles now I'm through elite
By any means, n***as gotta eat, Fat Burgers, n***as gotta eat
Crenshaw since ’85, got Jay Z off TMC
Every tape do a million plus, old tune car got ten up
Contracts not retroactive, big word but you get the message
Big checks, go get the Checkers
We call it Rally, you call it Checkers
I fuck with wings but I'm not investing
Tell Rozay that I'm tryna network
Pop the trunk now, make the set work
James Brown, gotta do your leg work
James Brown, you gotta do your leg work
[Chorus: Rick Ross]
It's time to buy back the block, buy back the block
It's time to buy back the block, buy back the block
It's time to buy back the hood, buy back the hood
I'm bought to buy back the hood, buy back the hood

[Verse 2: Slim Thug]
Thugga!
When bosses link up, they make boss moves
Tryna buy a hundred houses, tired of buying jewels
I done played with mills, I'm tryna touch another digit
Tired of looking cool, ain't nothing left to do, I did it
Boss Life construction, fuck it, buy my whole hood
When OG Johnny got the old hood lookin good
Used to sell bricks now we sellin' brick homes
Can't go to jail so we switched and got our hustle on
Money long, tryna own my whole city mane
Start off with a block, we already did it mane
Ain't no loans, everything black-owned
Might open up a bank and give my people homes
Thinking long term, thinking like a boss
Before you shine, gon' fix up your momma house
Buy back the block, it's time to open up shop
Boss up, get you some locks and build from bottom to top

[Chorus: Rick Ross & E-40]
It's time to buy back the block, buy back the block
It's time to buy back the block, buy back the block
It's time to buy back the hood, buy back the hood
Been gettin' money since Moby Dick was a goldfish
I'm 'bout to buy back the hood, buy back the hood
[Verse 3: E-40]
Never sold my 9,000 square foot house (Real estate)
I got 'bout three mansions in the south (Interest rate)
I can make the booger sugar bounce (Boing)
I used to have the sack in the droughts (Coins)
More hop than a kangaroo pouch (Pouch)
I think I might franchise a Ralph's (Ralph's)
Or a Whole Foods or a Sprout's (Sprout's)
Loyal to my soil like a spouse (Like a spouse)
My diamonds twinkling, her pussy tingling
I'm dipped in gold, I'm kinging (Kinging)
I'm bonafided, he falsified
That n***a told, he singing (Singing)
Bitch I'm the shit like I'm lactose (Lactose)
Got a down chick like I'm Papoose (Papoose)
Bosses, lieutenants and admirals (Admirals)
Tacticals, choppers and calicos (Calicos)
In the Bay tryna get boxed
That's why I stay hot, the cost of the living is high
Every day my people die
Lord knows I try, I see they tears in they eyes (Woo)
I come from nothing to something (Woo)
All of my life I been hustling (Woo)
Me and my bros at the top (Woo)
We gon' go buy back the block (Woo)
Biatch!
[Chorus: Rick Ross]
It's time to buy back the block, buy back the block
It's time to buy back the block, buy back the block
It's time to buy back the hood, buy back the hood
I'm 'bout to buy back the hood, buy back the hood

[Verse 4: Fat Joe]
Take the jet up NYC
Couple J's and some jeans to match the Balmain tees
Bout to buy back the black, 100 bricks in the trunk
Leave 'em laid in the pavement, you know we slay in the Bronx
And now I'm sorry, I been killin' these n***as
Now I got me a complex and I ain't feelin' these n***as
I just took a vacation, I had a pool by the beach
In the Mediterranean with a view of the sea
Put the streets on my back, now I'm back in them streets
Used to pack a Mac in the back of them Cadillac seats
And that's word to Big Punisher, I be sonin' these n***as
In the dome with the roof gone, the sun's on a n***a
Bet that leather reclining and them diamonds be dancing
Bout to buy back the block and build a thirty room mansion
When that money be talkin' you know I gotta respond
I'ma make me a billi and go buy back the Bronx

[Verse 5: Rick Ross]
Feds follow my cars, call me a person of interest
The Lord is my witness that I had perfect intentions
God is the greatest, he keeps me under surveillance
Powerful statements with such a wonderful cadence
The housing was public, my mother's love was amazing
Neighborhood violence had doubled
Never complained to the mayor
Trash on the corner be in the bundles contagious
And all the blunts I be blowin' while on out on the bodega
Business endeavors, we killers forever
I need D's to the land, I plan to build a few levels
All the homes that I own, I open my doors
For ones that I call my own, I pray you do it with yours

[Chorus: Rick Ross]
It's time to buy back the block, buy back the block
It's time to buy back the block, buy back the block
It's time to buy back the hood, buy back the hood
It's time to buy back the hood, buy back the hood
It's time to buy back the hood, buy back the hood
I'm 'bout to buy back the hood, buy back the hood
