Hollyhood

(album: City Of My Heart - 2009)

Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-whoa whoa oh yeah)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh yeah, yeah)

I heard to never believe I ever be a millionaire
'Cause it'd be a miracle if I ever reach to ever see my 21st year
But look at your boy I made it out the sewer
Thanks to Grandma I'm a entrepreneur
So many people said I couldn't do it
Funny how now they claim they always knew it

(Oh, oh, uh-oh, oh, uh-oh)
Never pain 'cause I been there once before
(Oh, oh, uh-oh, oh, uh-oh)
But I'm proud of the hood 'cause the hood's my home

From LA to New York, Chi-Town to A-Town
My hustlers try'na make a living
Though we hog your block
You gotta make the best of what you got
It's all good, you got the key to Hollyhood
Detroit to Miami, VA, New Orleans' streams
You gotta fight to the finish
Though we hog your block
You gotta make the best of what you got
It's all good 'cause we got the key to Hollyhood

When you come from Disney streets
The only way to go is up, (up)
All my fellas doing time
I ain't try'na preach it ain't too late to start over, nah
Ladies on the block just know that you're a queen
You don't have to settle for less for some green
Don't let nobody tell you, you can win big
Obama for President
The world's changing yeah

(Oh, oh, uh-oh, oh, uh-oh)
Never pain 'cause I been there once before
(Oh, oh, uh-oh, oh, uh-oh)
But I'm proud of the hood 'cause the hood's my home

From LA to New York, Chi-Town to A-Town
My hustlers try'na make a living
Though we hog your block
You gotta make the best of what you got
It's all good, you got the key to Hollyhood
Detroit to Miami, VA, New Orleans' streams
You gotta fight to the finish
Though we hog your block
You gotta make the best of what you got
It's all good 'cause we got the key to Hollyhood

Take your wishes, hit and misses
Turn it all into a golden ticket
Let it push you to the limit
'cause you're bound to touch the sky
You're getting closer so don't give up
Look at the bigger picture
It may get harder
But know what doesn't kill you only makes you stronger
It only makes you stronger, stronger

From LA to New York, Chi-Town to A-Town
My hustlers try'na make a living
Though we hog your block
You gotta make the best of what you got
It's all good, you got the key to Hollyhood
Detroit to Miami, VA, New Orleans' streams
You gotta fight to the finish
Though we hog your block
You gotta make the best of what you got
It's all good 'cause we got the key to Hollyhood

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-whoa whoa oh yeah)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh yeah, yeah)
'Cause we got the key to Hollyhood

(Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, oh-whoa whoa oh yeah)
(Oh, oh, oh, oh-oh yeah, yeah)
'Cause we got the key to Hollyhood
