Lyrics of Hood Gone Love It by Jay Rock,Kendrick Lamar

intro

Keepin' it G ain't nothin' (hey)

chorus

You ain't gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it (hey)
You ain't gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it (hey)
Watch a young nigga show his ass out in public (hey hey)
I got the whole block bumpin' (hey)
You ain't gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it (hey)
You ain't gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it (hey)
Watch a young nigga show his ass out in public (hey hey)

verse

Na, na, na, na, now, now you know what this is
Tell 'em it's a celebration, bitches
Where the barbeque pits and the mini-bikes
Mini-skirts, Hennessy's, and the Miller Lites
Domino tables, who got big six?
Where I'm from we do concrete back flips
Flip flop, flip flop, flip flop back
To the ghetto's where I bring Hip Hop back

verse

Real niggas love me, they tell me keep it pushin'
The only niggas be for waste out of central bullets
County jails and the lock downs up north
Said I should have it if Scarface pass the torch
That's how they feel Jack, built much more than rap
This that project haircut in the cul-de-sac
This is where hoe's ain't front you them boulders at
Meet your quota whenever I put a quote on a track, nigga

chorus

Keepin' it G ain't nothin' (hey)
You ain't gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it (hey)
You ain't gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it (hey)
Watch a young nigga show his ass out in public (hey hey)
I got the whole block bumpin' (hey)
You ain't gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it (hey)
You ain't gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it (hey)

verse

Watch a young nigga show his ass out in public (hey hey)
From Compton to Baltimore I'ma kill it, I buy a morgue in the minute

verse

The public house, the plastic couch of a section they tint it
The Regal window is tinted
The air conditioner broke but I'm cool enough
To ensure you my ride isn't Eskimo, huh?
And I peel off in the midst of gettin' my clothes off
And I thrive off energies from the inner cities that we lost, huh?
I'm puttin' the ghetto on top of my back and I live in the back of the jungle
Lions, tigers, bears, oh my

verse

Hear the siren, walk up, drive by
Shooters, looters, federal fed intruders
The engines on back of scooters the real can recognise real
And we need to know just who you are
You are in the presence of many presents
Kendrick the gift for the future, oh yeah, I said it
Thug life, good kid mad city, mad respect
Representin' the hub right

chorus

Keepin' it G ain't nothin' (hey)
You ain't gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it (hey)
You ain't gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it (hey)
Watch a young nigga show his ass out in public (hey hey)
I got the whole block bumpin' (hey)
You ain't gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it (hey)
You ain't gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it (hey)
Watch a young nigga show his ass out in public (hey hey)

verse

The home girls tells me I'm the shit
I break them off so they can buy some outfits
I buy them sons a pack of peppers, some new joints
Give 'em the game, school 'em on what's really important
It's how I was raised, the OG's had me
Thirteen fresh off the porch, slangin' cabby
But I'm wiser now, show all my young niggers
There's other ways you get them dollars and funds nigga
Comin' down in an old school, so cool
Whip like a five bar call it so cool
You don't know the tribulations that we go through

verse

Put your ears to the speakers I'ma show you
I paint the picture so perfect
In my CD you see Mona Lisa in person
Courtesy of a hunnit beat
Got my Crips and esse's at arm reach, one one
Keepin' it G ain't nothin' (hey)

chorus

You ain't gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it (hey)
You ain't gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it (hey)
Watch a young nigga show his ass out in public (hey hey)
I got the whole block bumpin' (hey)
You ain't gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it (hey)
You ain't gotta like it 'cause the hood gone love it (hey)
Watch a young nigga show his ass out in public (hey hey)
