Hood Hero

The hood need a hero
Niggas dying everyday

The hood need a hero
Niggas dying everyday
Why you tryna be a hero
You ain't never wear a cape
All these mommas crying
Cuz they sons is in the way
The hood need a hero
Hood need a hero

Wake up in morning I hear sirens where I lay
Hard to go outside cuz niggas dying everyday
Gotta keep a gun up on my waist
Cuz I want stars up in the wraith
Tryna bust down on a Rollie
I'm just tryna make a way
Seen that back door was open had to close it
No matter what I'm doing gotta always keep my focus
If it's money on your head don't let em ever catch you loafin
He was only 16 when they caught in the open
I don't wanna die young
And that's word to my young
You streets gotta keep ya iron
Watching for the snakes gotta keep my eye on
Niggas they be snakes that's why niggas dying
Said they put him on a stretcher
Thought he was a demon and they proved him something better
Niggas shooting shooting with them glocks and them barettas
He got put together
Said they put him on a stretcher
Dead and gone and I don't know what to do
I guess they gotta keep on shooting when they move
When they move
Dead and gone and I don't know what to do
I guess they gotta keep on shooting when they move
Shooting when they move

The hood need a hero
Niggas dying everyday
Why you tryna be a hero
You ain't never wear a cape
All these mommas crying
Cuz they sons is in the way
The hood need a hero
Hood need a hero

Switching sides you switched ya guys
They ghosting guns they switching nines
Niggas never went to school it's hard to read between the lines
Niggas 16 wit a record so it's hard to get a job
Had to finesse a couple niggas selling dubs for a dime
Caught up in the streets, yea he been hopeless
Tryna move a pack but he got snakes up in his circle
Caught up in the mix now his momma always hurting
Gotta watch that back door cuz it's niggas always lurking
I seen a nigga die
They let shots fly
And they killed him for that chicken not talking Popeyes
Niggas beefing over blocks just like it's five guy
Niggas pussy and I know they ain't got nine lives
Said you gotta keep yo head high
I got all these dead guys
Niggas don't be pilots but they always letting lead fly
Tryna feed his family that nigga doing fed time
Every time I turn the news I always see them kids die
Said they put em on a stretcher
Dead and gone and I don't know what to do
I guess they gotta keep on shooting when they move
When they move
If they gonna shoot em then they gonna shoot em all
Damn near cried when I got that phone call
I don't know, I'm so thrown
I don't know what to do
But to keep my tool

The hood need a hero
Niggas dying everyday
Why you tryna be a hero
You ain't never wear a cape
All these mommas crying
Cuz they sons is in the way
The hood need a hero
Hood need a hero
