| What’s really, really Crack |
| What’s really, really Dope |
| What’s really, really Sad |
| We don’t really have Hope |
| What’s really, really Hood |
| What’s really, really There |
| Stashing about it |
| Nobody really, really cares |

| Opened up another Chinese place |
| As if we needed one |
| Like we can’t get a hold of Chin-Wong |
| He in the hood with the egg-foo-young |
| Kennedy ride |
| Stay open till 5 |
| Look guys, open your eyes |
| We can’t survive when people come in our neighborhood and ride |
| While we fall like the towers hours after bin laden, surprise! |
| Knowledge is magnemytime, think it’s going to cling to the truth, |
| Which is every word that I sing in the booth. |
| I gotta watch the shit I bring to the youth, |
| Rappers affecting the hood, |
| My little cause Nate, slinging is proof, |
| I used to listen to Onyx, and think I had my Yonex, |
| Dre made me say fuck my book, where the fuck is my chronic. |
| The funny shit is that the white man is always behind it |
| He turns an ominous relation into his economics, |
| And it’s a promise -till I’m dead and gone, |
| When that revolution come, |
| I’m gonna be good and ready to get it on. |
| Allot of busters (tho) be claiming that they military minded |
| But real is not an image, it’s the substance behind it |
| Pulling out your pistol in your own neighborhood, |
| Stunting, en-dangering the babies on the block, |
| That ain’t about nothing, |
| The old Gs say the game used to be about something |
| The street life had honor and code |
| Now we just fronting, is it rap that got us acting like that? |
| Or the condition we live in, that got us cornered and packed |
| Up in the prisons, |
| Politicians running around with these rappers like mascots |
| So they can hi-jack they have-not vote in the ballot box. |
| Now I’m anti the Bush and gender, |
| But I remember, it was Bill Clinton that took welfare. |
| What’s really hood with these MC Wars? |
| Inflated egos acting like some gossiping Hoes, |
| That shit is weak Yo, |
| I focus on stacking this paper, setting the power, |
| Cruz if we ain’t controlling the hood it ain’t Ours. |
