Niggas die around my way,you have to have the hammer on
They try you around my way
lil niggas get the blaming on
Niggas die around my way
you better have the hammer on
They try you around my way
We bagging out the fens keep coming they coming
You know they rushing,when that money turn in to beef
& they squeezing you bet to busting,had that hammer on
Police got the cameras on, uuuummm
We bagging out the fens keep coming they coming
You know they rushing,when that money turn in to beef
& they squeezing you bet to busting,had that hammer on
Police got the cameras on, uuuummm
Se corona y no cargamoa siempre la corona,
boricuas en la zona homicide es la droga
24 horas activo como metadona,
se josea por motivo y se flipea en bolsas
Las putas tan de sobras porque wifey es una sola
Enfocado en hoy porque mañana no me enfoca
Los menores en la zona got it watch our brother
cualquiera let it go y aquí no importa la hora
Raaaaa
Niggas die around my way,you have to have the hammer on

La injusticia es inspiración en nuestras vidas,yo lo vivo to los días no fue en las noticias
Un día fue el vecino el otro un policía, los 2 tienen la misma sangre y también heridas
Porque el dolor ha sido parte de mi vida,
parte de la receta de mi comida,
y eso no te hace mas que yoooo
Niggas die around my way,you have to have the hammer on
They try you around my way
lil ni**as get the blaming on
Ni**as die around my way
you better have the hammer on
They try you around my way
The lyrics of "Hammer" by Alex Fatt featuring Hartford Po explore the harsh realities of living in a dangerous neighborhood where violence and crime are prevalent. The repeated line "Niggas die around my way, you have to have the hammer on" serves as a metaphorical reminder that in this environment, one must always be armed and prepared to defend themselves.
The song illustrates the constant threats and dangers faced by individuals in this neighborhood. The lines "They try you around my way, lil niggas get the blaming on" suggest that even young people are targeted and held responsible for crimes they may not have committed.

The phrase "bagging out the fens" implies a constant hustle to make money, possibly through illegal activities like drug dealing. The lyrics emphasize the volatility of situations when money turns into beef, symbolizing conflicts and disputes that arise within this environment. The line "they squeezing, you bet to busting, had that hammer on" alludes to the need for self-defense and readiness to use violence if necessary.
Furthermore, the mention of police and cameras represents the constant surveillance and scrutiny faced by the community. The lyrics acknowledge the presence of law enforcement, suggesting that even though they may be monitoring the neighborhood, they do not necessarily intervene to prevent the violence. This emphasizes the mistrust and disillusionment felt by the residents.
The final verse expresses the personal experiences of the artists, acknowledging the injustices they have witnessed and the pain they have endured in their lives. The lyrics imply that these experiences, however troubling, serve as inspiration for their music and fuel their desire to speak out against injustice. It also reflects on the shared humanity of those involved in these conflicts, highlighting that both the neighbors and the police officers bleed the same blood and suffer from wounds.
In essence, "Hammer" portrays the harsh realities of living in a dangerous neighborhood where violence is prevalent.
