My Block Songtext
von Urban Mystic

Mm
Oh, oh-oh-oh
Whoa, whoa

A welcome mat, a place to hang your hat
And a lovin′ hug, no shoes on my rug
And a picture of my three kings
Jesus, my father, Martin Luther, what a lovely scene

It's always clean, a ghetto dream
We lounge around to flicks up on the flat screen
′Cause we've seen slums, drug dealers, and guns
Look how far we've come

We can all get faded, ain′t gotta be related (oh)
I′ve known most of y'all, since we were little babies (oh-oh)
On the backstreets playin′ slap box (yeah!)
Look at us, we came up on the same ol' block

Cops roll through, kids hopscotch (hopscotch)
Duck down and someone licks off shots (off shots)
Same thing every day, it don′t stop
That's how it goes down on my block


Cops roll through, kids hopscotch (yeah)
Duck down and someone licks off shots (off shots)
Same thing every day, it don′t stop
That's how it goes down on my block

We've got it made, lemonade in the shade
In the driveway, the ′05 Escalade
I remember the days, low paid Section eight
We made the come up look easy, George and Weezie, had a maid

On everything, it′s the little things
When life provides you with the finer things
'Cause we′ve seen slums, drug dealers, and guns
Look how far we've come from

We can all get faded, ain′t gotta be related (ooh-ooh-ooh)
I've known most of y′all, since we were little babies (oh-oh)
On the backstreets playin' slap box (oh)
Look at us, we came up on the same ol' block (yeah, ooh-ooh-ooh)

Cops roll through, kids hopscotch
Duck down and someone licks off shots (licks off shots)
Same thing every day, it don′t stop
That′s how it goes down on my block (yeah)


Cops roll through, kids hopscotch (alright)
Duck down and someone licks off shots (someone licks off shots)
Same thing every day, it don't stop
That′s how it goes down on my block (then don't stop)

Every day, you slave for minimum wage
While we, hug the block still gettin′ paid
We barbeque, you mildew
We make moves, steady rockin' new jewels

We put shoes on the Cadillac (on the Cadillac)
Swerve down the block, don′t know how to act (don't know how to act)
Tint halfway so they all could see in (ooh-ooh-ooh)
Can't wait ′til tomorrow to do it again

Cops roll through, kids hopscotch
Duck down and someone licks off shots
Same thing everyday, it don′t stop (everyday, it don't stop)
That′s how it goes down on my block

Cops roll through, kids hopscotch (hey, yeah)
Duck down and someone licks off shots (c'mon licks off shots)
Same thang everyday, it don′t stop
That's how it goes down on my block

Cops roll through, kids hopscotch
Duck down and someone licks off shots (aye-aye-aye)
Same thang everyday, it don′t stop
That's how it goes down on my block

Cops roll through, kids hopscotch
Duck down and someone licks off shots
Same thang everyday, it don't stop
That′s how it goes down on my block
