[Intro] No place like home There's no place like home There's no place like, (Ravenswood motherfucker) There's no place like home No place like home There's no place lke home There's no place like, (tap my shoes twice)
[repeat 2X] If my hood could talk If my hood could talk If my hood could talk(she would say)
[Verse] Nineteen fifty-four, I came in the world And since my date of birth I've been the same little girl The double-edged sword, the pain and the pearls Pops named me Ravenswood I got sisters in every borough Some of them is pussy most of them is thorough Queensbride that's my heart she's closest to me (whew!) Me and Wooodside don't get down like that Can't even speak to Astoria, she always making stories up My little nephews out in 40 is warriors Fresh ass nieces through Cyprus don't call as much Heard Marcy and Tompkins was warring but You know how family is, either way I love all of them the same I should, my bloods thicker than H20 And ain't no water in my vein Wild as a child did my adolescent thing But shit really changed when I met that nigga Cane He was fucking with my brain, licking on my clit Had a big dick, plus he bought me a chain I was hooked, then I looked in the mirror Realized it was real, my whole life down the drain(like)
[Chorus] If my hood could talk If my hood could talk If my hood could talk(she would say) {*repeat*} I love to smoke and I love to drink And yeah! I'm a bitch and fuck what you think Nigga mind your biz, I do what I want I am who I am and that's how it is
[Verse] Crushed all your dreams, birthed your nightmares Made a 1-3 worth the Nike Airs Devil in the flesh when church was right there But you got to love me 'cause you a product of me I know I got a little temper, but I bathe everyday Why the white people hiding from me Housing keep my hair did, I'm over fifty still looking good But my insides is ugly Heart made of stone, lungs full of shell cases How could so many motherfuckers call me home Colon swollen of broken promises, the codes you supposed to follow is Written on my skin, along with the cameras that Bloomber put in 'Cause even if you ain't they're assuming is I ain't all bad though, theres some positive You'll acquire knowledge you'll never get in no colleges
[Chorus]
[Verse] The Brown family part of the wildest story to date "The Boss" and the whole city came to the wake The game ain't the same Snake got 25 And James changed his name, it's a shame (do the math) The homie Marquise did his thing on the Ave 'Till the reprecussions came for snatching a nigga chain And Balboa tell you all about pain He went to grouphome instead of the 7th grade I take a look at the hustlers that never made it And think where would I be without my pen and paper R.I.P. to all the patnas that's slain Ta lived in my building, O was my man! And Tone introduced Rome to the cane The path is set please don't make it memory lane You know what it's like growing up where I came from Bunch of future stars that never became none What's crazy is, you can replace the names I used And any hood nigga can relate...... Any hood nigga can relate
[Chorus]
[Outro] A. Pinks talking Dedicated to every housing projects in the world
