[Chorus: Jay Black]
[?] won't change
[?] give up that life
[?]
Someone always gets [?]
[?] in the hood
In the hood, in the hood
[?]
[Verse 1: Jay Rock]
[?] for gangsters
Everyone's banging, wannabe bangers
[?] by these rap singers
[?] that raised us
[?] consequence of gun battles
And police chases
They don't want the hood life, they want hood relations
[?] radio stations
I been there, done that, lost a lotta homies over this shit
See my relitives buy crack
[?] pack
Give [?] to me [?]
So my moms can eat
Dawg I see struggle where I live, it's [?]
[?]
But I can't stop, won't stop, [?]
Getting payed off my pain
That's the [?] drop
[Chorus: Jay Black]
[?] won't change
[?] give up that life
[?]
Someone always gets [?]
[?] in the hood
In the hood, in the hood
[?]
[Verse 2: Jay Rock]
Drug dealers on the block, feends looking for hard rock
Niggas on the rooftop, choppers ain't afraid of coppers
They come through, they seeing them doctors
Put them in I.C.U
Get them hood rats poison ivy too
[?]
[?]
From hustlers that wanna harvest it
[?]
Dice games played on the side of the building
[?] children
Now adays anybody can play the victom
Straight bullits [?]
In the city [?]
Niggas go on project living
And that's why I can't stop, won't stop
Till ya'll do stop getting payed off my pain
Just the backdrop
[Chorus: Jay Black]
[?] won't change
[?] give up that life
[?]
Someone always gets [?]
[?] in the hood
In the hood, in the hood
[?]
[Verse 3: Kendrick Lamar]
[?] hold hands [?]
Give them a mouthfull like the neighborhood dental
[?] everything they pretend to
Be, the streets, lay down on the ground
And sleep
This my home like first base
Balling on the curb like a pitcher
The erge of a 187 [?]
[?] like the [?]
[?]
[?]
[?] white T
[?] dump the gun and just start running
The ghetto chef [?] onion
[?] tear you apart
Can't stop, won't stop
Till everybody stop
Payed off our pain
That's the backdrop
[Chorus: Jay Black]
[?] won't change
[?] give up that life
[?]
Someone always gets [?]
[?] in the hood
In the hood, in the hood
[?]
[?] won't change
[?] give up that life
