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