Huh, huh, huh
Money, drugs, and sex
All in my hood
In my hood
In my hood
In my hood, yo, yo

What up little nigga, what you smokin on?
Only 14, product of a broken home
Out late, tryin to tell me that you're makin your livin
Tryin to see how much weed you can take in your system
Indeed, take out the seeds, then he finished his sentence
Askin me what I believe, have I ever repented?
Type of shit niggas talk about when they get high
Passed out, hazy eye, lettin days go by
Bullshittin one another with the same old lies
Tryin hard not to show all that pain inside
Saw the clouds turnin black like an angel died
Preacher said you a curse if you don't pay your ties
It's like that to the day that our loved ones die
Lookin up at the sky, "please sun come shine"
But all we see is dark days, ain't no sun rays
Only gun plays, in my hood

In my hood (what you see is tragedy)
In my hood (the peace can be)
In my hood (look around and tell me you're free)
In my hood (come with me to my hood)
In my hood (look around at what you see)
In my hood (tragedy, in my hood)
(Look around and tell me you're free)
(Come with me to my hood)

We've got powerules and p-stones
Damo and el rukas, in hell feudin, the 60's movement
The death of newton, the resurrection of clarence x students
The revolution, this is rebel music
The other day a young lady threw her baby of the roof an'
Six niggas died from homicide and drug shootins
My homey's mom just went of the loose end
From drugs abusin, this is thug amusement
Bloods and crips, huggin the strips
Lovin they clips, sittin on dubs in they whips
Folks, gd's and vice lords, when night falls
Black pimps and white whores, from the immortal words of jeff thor
To death do us all, the sets I recall, til we rest in the morgue
From the pilgrimage of larry huger, to the tribes of judah
We live our lives through ya, in my hood

In my hood (what you see is tragedy)
In my hood (the peace can be)
In my hood (look around and tell me you're free)
In my hood (come with me to my hood)
In my hood (look around at what you see)
In my hood (tragedy, in my hood)
(Look around and tell me you're free)
(Come with me to my hood)

'Cause outside there's a cold war
And inside niggas waitin on their road call
When friends, dies niggas ride for their road dogs
Don't know why we all cry when the soul fall
Yo, we got uncles comin home from doin a bid
Movin ya crib, with you and ya rib, is how a few of us live
The rest is always in dept, feel the heartaches of stress
Can't argue 'cause god makes the test
I hear oldies from og's who grow old tea
Some od in doorways, out in cold for four days
It's like that all day
We gat rollin 60's, for over 50's
Triple-oh's in the windy cities
Latin kings, manhattan queens
Spanish cobras, band of shoulders, families of soldiers
40 busters, 4 corner hustlers
From west side, to bed-stuy
Neathas in fiestas in neckties, wepa
Essays, and chevy's with hydraulics
This is god knowledge
Spinned it down for the hood, it's all good
In my hood

In my hood (what you see is tragedy)
In my hood (the peace can be)
In my hood (look around and tell me you're free)
In my hood (come with me to my hood)
In my hood (look around at what you see)
In my hood (tragedy, in my hood)
(Look around and tell me you're free)
(Come with me to my hood)

It's all good in my hood

Son Şansın - Şarkı Sözleri
Hayalperest
This song seemingly tackles the methods of deception those who manipulate others use to get victims to follow their demands, as well as diverting attention away from important issues. They'll also use it as a means to convince people to hate or kill others by pretending acts of terrorism were committed by the enemy when the acts themselves were done by the masters of control to promote discrimination and hate. It also reinforces the idea that these manipulative forces operate in various locations, infiltrating everyday life without detection, and propagate any and everywhere. In general, it highlights the danger of hidden agendas, manipulation, and distraction, serving as a critique of those who exploit chaos and confusion to control and gain power, depicting a cautionary tale against falling into their traps. It encourages us to question the narratives presented to us and remain vigilant against manipulation in various parts of society.

Mountain Song
Jane's Addiction
Jane's Addiction vocalist Perry Farrell gives Adam Reader some heartfelt insight into Jane’s Addiction's hard rock manifesto "Mountain Song", which was the second single from their revolutionary album Nothing's Shocking. Mountain song was first recorded in 1986 and appeared on the soundtrack to the film Dudes starring Jon Cryer. The version on Nothing's Shocking was re-recorded in 1988. "'Mountain Song' was actually about... I hate to say it but... drugs. Climbing this mountain and getting as high as you can, and then coming down that mountain," reveals Farrell. "What it feels to descend from the mountain top... not easy at all. The ascension is tough but exhilarating. Getting down is... it's a real bummer. Drugs is not for everybody obviously. For me, I wanted to experience the heights, and the lows come along with it." "There's a part - 'Cash in now honey, cash in Miss Smith.' Miss Smith is my Mother; our last name was Smith. Cashing in when she cashed in her life. So... she decided that, to her... at that time, she was desperate. Life wasn't worth it for her, that was her opinion. Some people think, never take your life, and some people find that their life isn't worth living. She was in love with my Dad, and my Dad was not faithful to her, and it broke her heart. She was very desperate and she did something that I know she regrets."

No Surprises
Radiohead
Same ideas expressed in Fitter, Happier are expressed in this song. We're told to strive for some sort of ideal life, which includes getting a good job, being kind to everyone, finding a partner, getting married, having a couple kids, living in a quiet neighborhood in a nice big house, etc. But in Fitter, Happier the narrator(?) realizes that it's incredibly robotic to live this life. People are being used by those in power "like a pig in a cage on antibiotics"--being pacified with things like new phones and cool gadgets and houses while being sucked dry. On No Surprises, the narrator is realizing how this life is killing him slowly. In the video, his helmet is slowly filling up with water, drowning him. But he's so complacent with it. This is a good summary of the song. This boring, "perfect" life foisted upon us by some higher powers (not spiritual, but political, economic, etc. politicians and businessmen, perhaps) is not the way to live. But there is seemingly no way out but death. He'd rather die peacefully right now than live in this cage. While our lives are often shielded, we're in our own protective bubbles, or protective helmets like the one Thom wears, if we look a little harder we can see all the corruption, lies, manipulation, etc. that is going on in the world, often run by huge yet nearly invisible organizations, corporations, and 'leaders'. It's a very hopeless song because it reflects real life.

Just A Little Lovin'
Dusty Springfield
I don't think it's necessarily about sex. It's about wanting to start the day with some love and affection. Maybe a warm cuddle. I'm not alone in interpreting it that way! For example: "'Just a Little Lovin’ is a timeless country song originally recorded by Eddy Arnold in 1954. The song, written by Eddie Miller and Jimmy Campbell, explores the delicate nuances of love and showcases Arnold’s emotive vocals. It delves into the universal theme of love and how even the smallest gesture of affection can have a profound impact on our lives." https://oldtimemusic.com/the-meaning-behind-the-song-just-a-little-lovin-by-eddy-arnold/
