Then wonder why in the fuck we thugs
Every hood's the same
'Cause when niggaz get tribal
Taking these halls and fillin' 'em up
Every hood's the same
Then come around here and fuck with us
Ay y'all, I'm about to be stuck
Owned by C.A., state property
Y'all know what it is, scared for your own kids
But who's the animal that built this prison?
Gotta go for the plea bargain they offered
Who's the animal that invented lower living?
Y'all know what happened last time I lost it
In the hood, don't press your luck
Every hood's the same
Damn, I can't take the pressure
They give us guns and drugs
Don't understand, what's so hard to figure out
Po-po coming but I'm scared to toss it
It's all about survival, nobody liable
They give us guns and drugs
Then wonder why in the fuck we thugs
Twenty years for what?
I'm from the land of the gang bang
Y'all wanna know why it's noise in the hood?
They give us guns and drugs
They wanna count the slugs
How these ghetto niggaz taken over showbiz
Thank god for Sugarhill
The game got a nigga exhausted
Grandmama came to court with her bible
Until the year two thousand, what the fuck?
They wanna count the slugs
They give us guns and drugs
They give us guns and drugs
Grabbed the weight up out the closet
Then wonder why in the fuck we thugs
Every hood's the same
Every hood's the same
Breaking these laws that's so corrupt
They wanna count the slugs
They wanna count the slugs
It's the same ole same
They wanna count the slugs
Every hood's the same
Bush run shit like Saddam Hussein
Then come around here and fuck with us
Come on
Looking for me, a one-way ticket out
To deal with this bullshit day to day
Then come around here and fuck with us
They wanna count the slugs
If I sell some yay or smoke some hay
Stop trippin' on it
Then wonder why in the fuck we thugs
Then come around here and fuck with us
I got caught by a five-o
Can't tell you niggaz what the fuckin' boss did
It's Boyz in the Hood, it's toys in the hood
Call me an animal up in the system
Then wonder why in the fuck we thugs
Socked the D.A. before I got gaffled
Just like the year fifteen fifty three
Then come around here and fuck with us
They wanna count the slugs
Then wonder why in the fuck we thugs
But when the judge hit the gavel
Then wonder why in the fuck we thugs
I cock and aim, clinically insane
Every hood's the same
They give us guns and drugs
I just came unraveled
Then come around here and fuck with us
Pulled the forty-four up out the dresser
Nigga killed a crip and a blood in the hood, for real
'Cause these motherfuckers will set you up, word up
You bitches wanna throw me up in Pelican's Bay
They give us guns and drugs
Every hood's the same
Every hood's the same
They give us guns and drugs
Every hood's the same
Since I was little, ain't a god damn thang changed
Now I'm too far from my family to travel
Some powder keg shit that's about to erupt
Then come around here and fuck with us
'Cause there's drugs in the hood, thugs in the hood
They wanna count the slugs
The projects, thank god for Russell Simmons
Then wonder why in the fuck we thugs
Then come around here and fuck with us
I'm putting a different kind of steel up to my grille
