Lyrics: [Verse- Young Buck](Prodigy) The sound of gunshots, the smell of swisha sweets Ki's of cocaine is all a nigga see And all these niggas be lookin for a lick to hit Cuz it don't look like we leavin these bricks to quit On them hot summer nights we be servin them whites On them cold winter days we be shootin AK's You aint safe around here or in the yard Its everyman for himself nigga livin is hard You see the cars, the bars, the ghetto super stars Some niggas got money and forgot who they are We rob, kill, steal, whatever (\"Ayo dunn when you gettin out the hood\"), Never My people need me, my heart is still here Even tho police be hatin im still here Im standin on this corner till my pockets bigger Im goin to my grave as a project nigga
[Chorus- Young Buck/(Prodigy)] You can take me out the hood but the hood still in me A Project Nigga till the Lord convict me (Yo we hood niggas, Project Niggas, everybody know we some ghetto ass niggas) You can take me out the hood but the hood still in me A Project Nigga till the Lord convict me (Straight hood niggas, Project Niggas, yall better know we some ghetto ass niggas)
[Verse- Prodigy] P is a triple threat, VIP, the don't P, bitch get a look at his arm We megastars, we got bulletproof cars And we ridin in them shits, with the guns in the door Baum, is the only thing we smoke I aint pickin seed out my weed since '94 In New York, the projects is where we feel safe Surrounded by the others like us, we embrace All the bullshit, get you niggas a void This is our life, we aint got no choice Look we enjoy ourselves in the middle of hell Shots poppin niggas might run up on you with and tell Like blow you away, you'll die with ya gun on ya waist Half assed in a bare cold case Nigga you aint got strength like the Mobb and G-Unit In the ghetto, my niggas rear run up in ya place
[Chorus- Young Buck/(Prodigy)] You can take me out the hood but the hood still in me A Project Nigga till the Lord convict me (Yo we hood niggas, Project Niggas, everybody know we some ghetto ass niggas) You can take me out the hood but the hood still in me A Project Nigga till the Lord convict me (Straight hood niggas, Project Niggas, yall better know we some ghetto ass niggas)
[Verse- Havoc] Gun thru these niggas that stay hatin Blood i can taste it, Buck im losin my patience This rap shit, dudes got it fucked up boy Don't you know we gettin money so we got more toys? I fucked ya bitch, think nuthin of it Got mad drama but we still out clubbin We still out gunnin, dumpin the Mac clips Homie we got this and yall aint have this Baby aint nuthin you know im spittin that crack shit Like im still on the block, bunch of police flippin Still in the kitchen cookin, workin that Trip Beam Have fiends baggin watch them lick the plate clean Do this for my niggas up north from them state greens Bustin them hammers for clippin my sing sing All my hood niggas don't worry just maintain You know what it is G-Unit's what i bang
[Chorus- Young Buck/(Prodigy)] You can take me out the hood but the hood still in me A Project Nigga till the Lord convict me (Yo we hood niggas, Project Niggas, everybody know we some ghetto ass niggas) You can take me out the hood but the hood still in me A Project Nigga till the Lord convict me (Straight hood niggas, Project Niggas, yall better know we some ghetto ass niggas)
