Hood Lullaby
It's a cold world these days
Kids getting killed these days
We gotta rebuild these days
For the future
Everybody living in the past
Know my history
I even made an A within the class
So I studied as kid til I grew into a man
I was robbed of my innocence but turned it to a plan
I get heated when they tell me that they growing too fast
Ya'll fault, cause some of you trynna wipe y'all hands
Of responsibility, the negativity that you don't wanna hold
No stability because you lack the sympathy
To love more than your own
So you live eye for an eye, life for a life
Just cause you grown don't make you right
Two wrongs won't ever be right
So you might wanna think twice
Don't make a peep
Imma protect you when you go to sleep
Don't make a peep
Monsters gone try to get you in the streets
No need to fear
Even if devils & demons appear
Long as we praying your future is clear
Mommy and daddy gon always be here
Don't make a peep
Imma protect you when you go to sleep
Don't make a peep
Monsters gone try to get you in the streets
No need to fear
Even if devils & demons appear
Long as we praying your future is clear
Mommy and Daddy gon always be here
Most of the monsters your kids see are you
When you drunk and you beating your wife
Most of the monsters your kids see are you
When you cuss out your husband to prove that you right
Most of the monsters your kids see are you at your worse
But still love you in absence of light
Most of the monsters your kids see are who they become
Then you say, but I'm raising them right
But you got a choice
They gon need guidance and you the voice
Sending up a prayer let heaven rejoice
Sending up a prayer let heaven rejoice
Monsters and demons gon come for your kids
Monsters and demons so carefully hid
What do you do when the monster is you
This hood lullaby is a prayer for you too
Don't make a peep
Imma protect you when you go to sleep
Don't make a peep
Monsters gone try to get you in the streets
No need to fear
Even if devils & demons appear
Long as we praying your future is clear
Mommy and daddy gon always be here
Don't make a peep
Imma protect you when you go to sleep
Don't make a peep
Monsters gone try to get you in the streets
No need to fear
Even if devils & demons appear
Long as we praying your future is clear
Mommy and Daddy gon always be here
Kids getting killed these days
We gotta rebuild these days
For the future
Everybody living in the past
Know my history
I even made an A within the class
So I studied as kid til I grew into a man
I was robbed of my innocence but turned it to a plan
I get heated when they tell me that they growing too fast
Ya'll fault, cause some of you trynna wipe y'all hands
Of responsibility, the negativity that you don't wanna hold
No stability because you lack the sympathy

So you live eye for an eye, life for a life
Just cause you grown don't make you right
Two wrongs won't ever be right

Don't make a peep
Imma protect you when you go to sleep
Don't make a peep
Monsters gone try to get you in the streets
No need to fear
Even if devils & demons appear
Long as we praying your future is clear
Mommy and daddy gon always be here
Don't make a peep
Imma protect you when you go to sleep

Monsters gone try to get you in the streets
No need to fear
Even if devils & demons appear
Long as we praying your future is clear
Mommy and Daddy gon always be here
