Scott Storch - Why We Thugs lyrics

[Intro] Yeah, every hood's the same Every hood's the same, come on [Hook] They give us guns and d** Then wonder why in the f** we thugs They wanna count the slugs Then come around here and f** with us They give us guns and d** Then wonder why in the f** we thugs They wanna count the slugs Then come around here and f** with us [Verse 1] I'm from the land of the gang bang Since I was little, ain't a goddamn thang changed It's the same old same Bush run sh** like Saddam Hussein I co*k and aim, clinically insane To deal with this bullsh** day-to-day If I sell some yay or smoke some hay You b**hes wanna throw me up in Pelican's Bay Call me an animal up in the system But who's the animal that built this prison? Who's the animal that invented lower-livin'? The projects, thank God for Russell Simmons Thank God for Sugarhill I'm putting a different kind of steel up to my grill Y'all know what it is, scared for your own kids How these ghetto n***as taken over showbiz [Hook] They give us guns and d** Then wonder why in the f** we thugs They wanna count the slugs Then come around here and f** with us They give us guns and d** Then wonder why in the f** we thugs They wanna count the slugs Then come around here and f** with us [Verse 2] It's boys in the hood, it's toys in the hood Y'all wanna know why there's noise in the hood ‘Cause there's d** in the hood, thugs in the hood n***a k**ed a Crip and a Blood in the hood ‘Cause when n***as get tribal It's all about survival, nobody liable I got caught by Five-O Grandmama came to court with her Bible But when the judge hit the gavel Now I'm too far from my family to travel I just came unraveled Socked the D.A. before I got gaffled Owned by C.A, State Property Just like the year fifteen fifty three Looking for me, a one-way ticket out Don't understand, what's so hard to figure out? [Hook] They give us guns and d** Then wonder why in the f** we thugs They wanna count the slugs Then come around here and f** with us They give us guns and d** Then wonder why in the f** we thugs They wanna count the slugs Then come around here and f** with us [Verse 3] Damn, I can't take the pressure Pulled the 4-4 up out the dresser Grabbed the weight up out the closet Po-po coming, but I'm scared to toss it Y'all know what happened last time I lost it Can't tell you n***as what the f**in' boss did D game got a n***a exhausted Gotta go for the plea bargain they offered Twenty years for what? Breaking these laws that's so corrupt Taking these halls and fillin' them up Some powder keg sh** that's about to erupt Aye, y'all, I'm about to be stuck Until the year two thousand, what the f**? In the hood, don't press your luck ‘Cause these motherf**ers will set you up, word up [Hook] They give us guns and d** Then wonder why in the f** we thugs They wanna count the slugs Then come around here and f** with us They give us guns and d** Then wonder why in the f** we thugs They wanna count the slugs Then come around here and f** with us [Outro] Every hood's the same, every hood's the same Every hood's the same, every hood's the same Every hood's the same, stop trippin on it Every hood's the same, every hood's the same Every hood's the same, every hood's the same Every hood's the same
