i love the hood with my whole heart
it whole heartedly been a part of me in my own thought process
so i digest through my own art
that i'm blessed though i digress due to slow starts
but who else could bring the hood out
and tell 'em when they let god in
it brings the good out
learn a lesson and listen
my current composition concerns your present condition
and turn direction envision of givin' blessings and wishin' you well
well wishing and tales fishing
siftin' through hell's kitchen to find good
have a god-like mind as the divine should
define good within yourself i think the time's good
and may these lines live forever like a line should
it's a war going on and your soul fighting
so frightening within you i see thunder and both lightening
boat striking
snow ice and hail
your whole life unfold like
cold nights in hell
in a mode like
you're feeling low like
like you don't like yourself
you got no sight
no insight
no foresight
that's the shit that your foes like
run up on a nigga get 'em froze like
put the 4-4 to his foes like
niggas 'bout to take a pic
trying to get the pose right
red dot
headshot
hit 'em close like

like all theses niggas i've got to shoot one
fuck one pistol i'm cocking two guns
fuck shoe money

we got bigger guns
go get one and i ride
if i die
they say i went hard

hug this block
tote this fucking glock
can't let these suckers scheme

i'm too real to dream
so when it's this cold world won't feel a thing
lonely days are gone
all them nights to come
waited to be yours
so let's make love not war
so let the choir sing and let 'em know
so let the choir sing and let 'em know
so let the choir sing and let 'em know
whoa.
