B G#m F# E
[Verse 1]
G#m
And I say welcome to the hood
B
Welcome to the hood, welcome to the place where nothing ever ends up good
F#
And they say you're a disgrace if you can't find yourself a job
E
Around here there's either been a draught and then there's been a flood
G#m
No one ever built an ark for anybody from the block
B
Man are trying to ring the heavens but God never gets in touch
F#
For certain people it's a must to comе across as tough
E
Cos you don't want to be a victim when Berеttas start to bust
G#m
And I say welcome to the hood
B
Welcome to the hood where no one teaches you to love because we're all products of lust
F#
We learn to tell a lie before we even learn to trust
E
And then we see how people die as if the sorrow ain't enough
G#m
So-and-so killed so-and-so I struggle to keep up
B
B victim of knife crime it hit him in the lung
F#
The press are making articles expressing their disgust
E
But where there's no opportunity survival is a must
G#m
And I say welcome to the hood
B
Welcome to the hood where boredom leads to depression, depression leads to drugs
F#
And drugs numb the pain of all the fucked up stuff
E
That you have to see when you're forced into growing up
G#m
Nobody's responsible everybody's corrupt
B
And school's a waste of time cos we're learning out of books
F#
And when you're academic you get taken for a mug
E
Cos mathematics won't help when you're in a puddle of blood
G#m
And I say welcome to the hood
B
Welcome to the hood feels like the only thing that ever settles is the dust
F#
We try and keep it clean but the stress builds up
E
And it was all a dream until Biggie got shot
[Chorus 1]
G#m
Welcome to the place that I call home
F# E
Be careful it don't turn your heart to stone
G#m B
Welcome to the war I'm battling
F# E
You live or you die, you lose or you win
[Verse 2]
G#m
And I say welcome to the hood
B
Welcome to the hood, the person they call mental health is the person that we call Mum
F#
We either don't have a dad or we have more than one
E
And we're told to fly the nest before we even learn to run
G#m
You don't have to be a soldier here to hold a gun
B
And watching other people suffer is what we consider fun
F#
"Cause suffering is standard, you'll have to toughen up"
E
At least that's what your mother tells you when she's fully drunk
G#m
People steal for a living, and end up in the can
B
It's Miles easier in jail, but you wouldn't understand
F#
Being a criminal is not part of the plan
E
But how are you supposed to work when nobody will take you on
G#m
So I say welcome to the hood
B
Welcome to the hood, depression and anxiety gets swept under the rug
F#
These gangsters ain't family
E
Welcome to the club because there's plenty of gangsters in a city full of thugs
G#m
Being born into the politics of poverty is rough
B
You can look down your nose holes but only God can judge
F#
Most of us are afraid to pray to the above
E
Cause Pac said there ain't no heaven for a thug
G#m
Welcome to the hood, welcome to the hood
B
Welcome to the place when nothing ever ends up good
F#
And they say that you're a disgrace if you can't find yourself a job
E
Around here there's either been a draught then there's been a flood
[Chorus 1]
G#m
Welcome to the place that I call home
F# E
Be careful it don't turn your heart to stone
G#m B
Welcome to the war I'm battling
F# E
You live or you die, you lose or you win
[Bridge]
G#m B
You see there ain't no heaven for a thug
F# E
Seems like my good ain't ever good enough
G#m B
Feels like I'm running running out of love
F# E
You live or you die you lose or you win
G#m B
They say there ain't no heaven for a thug
F# E
Seems like my good ain't ever good enough
G#m B
Feels like I'm running running out of love
F# E
You live or you die, you lose or you win
[Chorus 1]
G#m B
Welcome to the place that I call home
F# E
Be careful it don't turn your heart to stone
G#m B
Welcome to the war I'm battling
F# E G#m
You live or you die, you lose or you win (lose or you win)
