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

A# G#
You live or you die you lose or you win
Cm D#
They say there ain't no heaven for a thug
