Hood Song

Lyrics

[Intro: Dorrough Music] Ha, yo, Dorrough Music North Side, South Side, East Coast, West Coast, Mid-West From my city to yo' city, Dallas, Texas, from yo' hood to my hood Right now I present to the world Tomeka Pearl [Chorus: Tomeka Pearl] Put one hand cross my heart, won't nothing bring me apart From my home where I start, I'm too smart and all I know is You can take me from my hood but you can't take my hood from me I rep my hood it's understood, say what you want but all I know is [Verse 1: Dorrough Music] Say, it's a funny day in the hood and everybody and they momma out I must admit today I'm kinda feeling good Ain't nobody beefing and none of my niggas are ducking the feds So the laws ain't gotta be said 'cause it's understood And you know the game It ain't nobody showing love unless you gotta name And don't nobody turn they head unless you hoggin' lanes And ain't nobody breaking bread unless you do the same You know the game boy Either you ride on heavy Chevy's and gliding On the Pirellis and sliding, pulling women to trying Best believe that we grinding, getting it where I stay We getting it every way and safe Before the end of the day all the ballers ballin' All the jokers joking, all the hater's hatin', all the boppers boppin' All lady cool, probably take her shopping Real G's let me hear it if you feel me knocking [Chorus: Tomeka Pearl] You can take me from my hood but you can't take my hood from me I rep my hood it's understood, say what you want but all I know is You can take me from my hood but you can't take my hood from me I rep my hood it's understood, say what you want but all I know is [Verse 2: Dorrough Music] Check me out, I'm holding steady like I'm rolling Riding thru' yo' hood I chunk the deuce up like I'm posing Riding thru' yo' city rolling gutta like I'm bowling First I get it live then shut it down like it's closing Early, long wide wirly Kicking one deep 'cause you boys act girly Or maybe with a sweet big ice cream swirly Wrist gold, neck gold, teeth white pearly, say And you can catch me in the hood like fish fries on a Saturday Ya momma looking good, I like the way she wore her hair today She hopped up in the slab, I say "What you wanna do today?" She looked at me and smiled then said "Boy, I'm doing you today" For real? I guess that mean that I'm official now It took awhile but now they recognize I'm on a mission now Stop, listen I got they full attention now Since I got attention it's the perfect time to mission out that [Chorus: Tomeka Pearl] You can take me from my hood but you can't take my hood from me I rep my hood it's understood, say what you want but all I know is You can take me from my hood but you can't take my hood from me I rep my hood it's understood, say what you want but all I know is [Verse 3: Dorrough Music & Tomeka Pearl] It don't really matter much where I be Never will you find another G like me You see a lot of people try to be like me But never will you find another G like me Man, I'm repping my hood for a long, long time Never will you find another hood like mine I hope that people got it understood like mine 'Cause never will you find another hood like mine [Chorus: Tomeka Pearl] You can take me from my hood but you can't take my hood from me I rep my hood it's understood, say what you want but all I know is You can take me from my hood but you can't take my hood from me I rep my hood it's understood, say what you want but all I know is
