Lost in the Hood - DJ Screw, The Screwed Up Click

Yeah, I knew some of you busters

Just didn’t wanna see this brother make it

But I’m here

Uh-huh, uh-huh

I know you feel me

Pickin' up buckshot shells

Is how I’m comin'

I know you feel me

Uh-huh, uh-huh

I know you feel me

Pickin' up buckshot shells in my driveway

Had a shootout last night

But I live to see Friday, another day

Chillin' in the jungle, smokin' hay

Watchin' the lil' locs play

With the trigger of an AK

Comin' up, runnin' up fiends, so I telled on

I’m workin' for the president, so coppers get the hell on

Devil’s on my back, strapped to kill, but I look out

I gots to put in work all year

And can’t clock out

A menace to society, society made me a menace

Walkin' a road to freedom, where the road seems endless

With no stop sign, direction, speed limit, or street lights

Just gang fights, crack pipes, poverty and long nights

Of tears, crawlin' in the well of memories

Thinkin' of the daily battles and the gang fight injuries

for life, to the heart, mind, body and the soul I claim

, Prince on my brain, so some call me insane

With no reason to live

With no love to give

The only ones followin' me is the negative

One, cause my people know another homie’s funeral’s true

And welcome to the jungles, nothin' but the flu

And broke hoes are parasites jackin' a brother

For his years, prostitutes workin' undercover

With no remorse or love loss

I’m just a king in the jungle, still runnin' around lost in the hood

No way out, n-no way out

No way out

Yo I’m lost in the hood

No way out, n-no way out

No way out

Yo, I’m lost in the hood

No way out, n-no way out

No way out

Yo.

I’m lost in the hood

Nowadays, brothers gotta pack a gun to a club

'Cause every time I go out I see a fool gettin' drug

With a bullet in his mug, and the red blood puddle

Watchin' his homie shed tears in the shot up huddle

Ain’t no rehabilitation for death

Loc, you get killed, you gone

Buried, put away, smoked

Done, did, no mo' grievin'

So long, goodbye

'Cause you’ll soon be leavin'

The jungle, the place where the big boys terrorize

Livin' a violent life in the city just to stay alive

What can I do to make it better in my home sweet home

Without gettin' locked up or a shell in my dome?

I asked God and he answered me, yeah

I know those devils wanna dance with me, no

My homie Ray died last year

An' even though I cried

Yo, it won’t be my last tear

Comin' up

In this world of madness

Don’t nothin' look good 'cause all I see is sadness

All the, black G, can’t stop if I could

I’m on a mission 'cause I’m missin' some lost in the hood

No way out, n-no way out

No way out

Yo, I’m lost in the hood

No way out, n-no way out

No way out

Yo, I’m lost in the hood

No way out, n-no way out

No way out

Yo, I’m lost in the hood

No way out, n-no way out

No way out

T-T-Tears

Fallin' down my cheeks, cause I’m like a bad seed

Planted deep in the streets

Will I die from starvation or die from the gauge

'Cause nowadays young brothers ain’t dyin' of old age

A bullet to the head, ain’t nothin' new, Brrat

Mark’s in the hood, catch bullets like the flu

But I sneeze back

Wit' the U

Double Z, I

Rattata-tat-tat-tat, nigga, step and die

Ain’t no sense in me lyin'

I’m ready for the season, In the mirror everyday

Steadily bobbin', steadily weavin'

Five O’s don’t understand

The mission of my gang

Tellin' me to be good, when they yellin' «Ready, aim» on the black G, but no,

I can’t go out like kill 'em

You shoot me, you won’t be in jail or prison

Take every nigga you kill

G’s kill ten of your best men

Leavin' bullets in their chin wit' the nine

'Cause crooked ass cops still feel

They can beat a nigga down like Rodney until I kneel

That’s a no-no, I got your photo

Sayin' cheers if I catch you at

These damn fools, no more tears

No way out, n-no way out

No way out

Yo, I’m lost in the hood

No way out, n-no way out

No way out

No way out, n-no way out

No way out

Yo, I’m lost in the hood

No way out, n-no way out

No way out

I know you feel me

Uh-huh, uh-huh

This is how I’m comin'

Uh-huh, uh-huh

I know you feel me

Break 'em down
