somp people don't really know what it means to be hood. they think ur just a stuffler and ur up to know good. they think these brothers don't know nothing else but bling and white tees. and they think that all these women can do is somebody's weave
they think we're hustlers
gangsters
and goons riding by
but be easy with your mouth

the life that gets lived
the
struggles we deal. its hard some days man
