My Hood (Feat. Sporty Loco)

Yeah
La Sinfonia
Scotty Loco
Doin' it
This is our hood
Our barrio

My pride
My love is in my hood
My hood
My hood
My hood

World spins, you don't feel it movin' at all
It's hard for me to fall
When my only motivation is my son's drawings on the wall
I thought I knew it all, made some mistakes
Then wrote about 'em, put it in music for you to talk about
Nights through white lines, that's a do or take
But wide eyes for so long gon' make you hallucinate
We're tryna kill the hate, but they ain't finished
They tellin' me go back to my country, but I'm already in it
I'm independent like the Fourth of July
Guess every day I'm high
My homies know I know how to survive without a nine to five
Dreams are made for those sleepin', ese, don't doubt us
Wrote about Pac, it wouldn't be L.A. without us

My pride
My love is in my hood
My hood
My hood
My hood

Even though my neighborhood blocks are hot
And full of crooked cops
Where people get shot, locked up and put in a box
I love my home, it made me strong
It showed me good and taught me wrong
But it's always playin' the same song
Soldado, restin' in peace
Es dedicado, for every youngster restin' in peace
For every dream they had but couldn't complete
I'ma succeed, I'ma ride
I'ma go worldwide and show my brown pride
I'm watchin' time fly, so I'm gonna get mine
This time, L.A. I till I die
This Latin makin' it happen with the
Rappin', my city's always in my mind
That's why I wrote this rhyme, 'cause you can't take

My pride
My love is in my hood
My hood
My hood
My hood

Born and bred in the city blocks and street corners of East Los
One of the most infamous barrios in the West Coast
But you gotta love it
This wouldn't be my hood if the walls ain't spray painted
It wouldn't be my hood if every other corner didn't
Have candles lit for all the poor souls now departed
It wouldn't be my hood if all the streets
Weren't filled with savages that are cold-hearted
And so you better understand it
Water runs throughout the city
In essence, it's like the blood that flows throughout my whole body
It's embedded in my heart, so no
Matter where I go, L.A. will always be

My pride
My love is in my hood
My hood
My hood
My hood

My pride
My love is in my hood
My hood
My hood
My hood
