Comin up in da hood where the streets are cold 

Either you gon' stretch or either you gon' fold 

Either you gon' ride or get rolled on 

Which one is it or they pay u a visit 



Comin up in da hood where the streets are cold

What you gon' do? 

You gon' ride? 

You gon' roll? 

You gon' stretch? 

You gon' fold? 

You gon' keep yo family po? 



Comin up in da hood watchin my homies take the pressure 

That's why I chose to be a mic-checka 

What you gon' do? 

You gon' ball? 

You gon' fall? 

Let em knock u into walls? 

Leave you dead in a hall 

Or you gon' keep hanging in the streets with your crew 

Don't ask me cuz I know what I'm a do 



But what you gon' do? 

Buy the solos with the dodo's and nogo's and fofo's 

In choke holds after getting chased by the po po's 

You gon' ride solo or is you gon' group it? 

Or is you gon' think before you start being stupid

Now what chu gon' do? 

You gon' rob? 

You gon' kill? 

Buy the drugs or you gon' deal 

Or go out and chase a mil 

Or on the other hand get a deal like me 

And go and write 48 bars to a beat 



Tell me what you gon' do? 

Be another family failure 

Disrespectin all your elders 

Go livin in a shelter 

Or you gon' get killed put in jail or be a doctor 

And own a big house on the roof a helicopter 



Whatchu gon' do? 

Stay in the same city, same hood, same block 

Same homies changing clothes, wearin eachothers socks 

or do you wanna go somewhere 

A life to try to live 

And see about a hundred 

Making money, taking trips

What you gon' do? 

Be a fed, be a star, do the dance, hit the bar 

Be a face nigga - sharp 

Or go and shop and stuff 

Hit the mall, pop tags 

Start stuff 

Get me red, white and blue like the flag 



Jibbs what you gon' do? 

Gettin money, stay off the streets 

They frontin man - it aint funny, I aint runnin 

Hopin from place to place like a bunny kinda sunny 

Phone on my waist vibrate cuz it's comin 

Stay in shape 

Last in the game is music business 

Funny 



For the sake that my hood cats hungry 

Tryin to get a mil deal, bread and bologna 

For the sake that my hood cats that are hungry 

Tryin to get a mil deal, bread and bologna 



Comin up in da hood!
