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