Frost - Nothing But Love for the Neighborhood lyrics
f/ Rich Garcia [Frost] Haha Yeah Now let me tell you about my neighborhood As I scan through the city, it's not all bad, there's some good So if you roll through my town don't be nervous You can still catch a family at a Sunday service Or hanging out, cooling out, just barbequing If you ask me, you better check what you be doing Cuz if you look past the liqour store on every corner You can find a working man in a van, a home owner Not everyone is drunk in a ditch As a matter of fact I heard a broke man became rich And so it makes me wanna frown That you would want to put me down cuz my neighborhood of town But that's cool, it ain't nothing new So I'ma tell the truth about the hood on this record for you Now check it If I could make this world perfect I would, but I can't And I still got nothing but love for the hood [Chorus x2: Rich Garcia] I got love, love, love, love, love Nothing but love Nothing but love, love, love, love, love Nothing but love for the hood [Frost] I know a kid born in the projects too And you should see the things he was subjected to That didn't mean that he would do the same Like go find a gun, or run with a gang He took the right route, he learned a little math A college education, now a champange of bubble bath I know another man who makes $4.25 Works two jobs to keep his family alive You say it's bad? But why's this man filled with joy? Every Saturday he's playing ball with his little boy And raising him the right way Showing him a way out you might say You see, you're never too old to learn So just sit back and listen as I take my turn If I could make this world perfect I would, but I can't And I still got nothing but love for the hood [Chorus x2] [Frost] Population 69,000 Now that's a whole lot of people that my hood be housing Most of them are happy, make the best from the worst But you be trying to act like the ghetto is cursed Now check it, little kids playing out in the park Mama yelling out their name when it gets dark An old man, he takes out his garbage cans And then he turns with a smile to shake the next man's hand And all I see is love and sensitivity But if the government could, then they'd get rid of me But now I sure am glad that I was brought up strong Now let me tell you, mama brought the Frost up with values And if you fall, then I'ma be the first one to help you out And see, you thought I was the worst one If I could make this world perfect I would, but I can't And I still got nothing but love for the hood [Chorus x2] |
