True Hood
Let me tell you about, this girl I know,
that has a heart colder than snow.
She live's the life of the street's,
that's all she know's, that's all she could be!
She stay making move's...
It's now time, to play the game by her own rule's!
She drops out of school, in the tenth grade...
Money is what she know's, money is what she made!
Get's engage to the street's,
tried of all the lame's,
tried of the weak!
Her life was remade,
It's now time to pave a new way!
Reborn... right from of the grave, of life!
All chip's in... She just rolled the dice!
Here come's new life...
At the age of fifteen, here come's a new scene!
Her first son was made...
Now it's time to step up the game!
Had three car's, all in her name...
The car's was never legit,
A chop shop, made all those serial number's fit!
As her baby boy, had the Jordan's he couldn't even began to fit!
Paying all the bill's, even the rent.
Both brother's on the block,...
for the crib, wouldn't get hot!
A dopefiend dream, If you know what I mean!
Living the life...like scarface wife!
Pushing key's of coke,
rocking fur coat's!
Going on boat ride's, with white guy's!
Now the landlord, smoke's...
Renting the Lexus, for a dub of coke!
*****es envious, Nigga's is scarred!
Fronting' pound's, to help nigga's get on!
Baby's momma's, eating out of plams.
Wishing they can take her on!
Her baby daddy, is proud to have her on his arm!
Living the life....
Coming from the project's, to owning, complex's.
Strugling from being a minority,
coming from society,
living in poverty! ...
Copping to Drug Court, while other's do, 2- 4!
She's taking trip's,
Living lavish,
Looking flawless,
Living hood rich!
Devoted to the game,
living all the hood fame!
Putting, Erica Cane' to shame!....
My swagger so tight,
It's cutting into you, like a knife!
You can feel it swelling,.....
Cause your girl "TWANNA" is so .......
"OVERWHELMING"...
