Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Real music (real music) let's go
The hood's hot (uh-huh, yeah) The hood's hot (clap)
The hood's hot (oh, yeah) The hood's hot (yeah, yeah)
Yo when I squirt the chrome the funeral home
Gon' double they money this year off my work alone
Nobody gotta know who did it
Two-thirds of the L.O., where the X at?
Hoodie under the suit jacket, double-breast that
I'm in the hood like scratch-offs, get them packs off
Lame niggas cuffing them whack whores
Use of the pick going back door, no more for the fake
Just stand there and I'ma dish it back off
Might lay it up, might not
Niggas don't be in the wrong place cause it's me in the right spot
I'm quite hot, y'all niggas is quite pop
The record don't sell then I still got light rocks
Like wearing Timbs with Nike socks
And the lil' bit of money I did make I put it in light stocks
Yeah, how y'all doing out there (Jada what up nigga?)
How y'all doing out there? (It's your boy Sheek Louch nigga)
The hood's hot (thanks for inviting me on this track)
The hood's hot
Yo if my flow too tight, put the pressure on
Watch the juice come out like I'm squeezing a Sprite
Make big deals, get out on big bails
Shit, your career about as short as Amil's (ha ha)
Shit on niggaz like I had two tails (damn)
With enough bars to open four jails
If you don't know nigga, ask Madden
How I play with the hammer, in Manhattan
Shank up (yeah) niggas leak enough blood
To fill a motherfucking H-2 tank up
Get ya bank up (yeah) who you rank up
Get off his dick and get you a brick (woo)
We done seen every John Woo flick
So act like The Killer instead of some chick (bitch)
Fuck a pimp cup, get a plastic one (no doubt)
Put some 'gnac in that shit and go and get it done
How why'all doin out there? (You know what they want right)
How why'all doin out there? (They want that gangsta shit from us daddy)
The hood's hot (so let that shit hit you)
The hood's hot
Me and 'Kiss hot like lava (no doubt)
We got sons in the game and we don't need Maury to know who the father
If we don't know you, your bars ain't big enough (nah)
You need a gimmick, go run around the block with Puff
Get a Black Phone, rent some of Jigga's stuff
I'm like T-Dub, you want to be dubbed (no doubt)
I was there when a lil' nigga re'd up
You ain't Willie, you just act G'd up
Yeah, uh, yo
I branched out, so you can get the these
In the glass seam bags you can pull the stamps out
Nigga the champ's out, we don't rock loud colors
We pop loud guns nigga to stand out
You know what it is kid, your man got the money in his crib
Then we goin' go in your man's house
Double R D-Block nigga the camp's out
Can't forget about Swizz, he blowing the amps out, what?
How y'all doing out there?
How y'all doing out there?
The hood's hot
The hood's hot

Hoodie under the suit jacket, double-breast that
I wear my casual hoodie under my formal suit jacket in a stylish manner
I'm in the hood like scratch-offs, get them packs off
I'm always in the hood, just like scratch-off cards - sell those packs quickly
Lame niggas cuffing them whack whores
Weak guys are taking care of unattractive women
Use of the pick going back door, no more for the fake
Don't need to use tricks to get into places, and no more fakeness
Just stand there and I'ma dish it back off
Just wait there, and I will retaliate appropriately
Might lay it up, might not

The record don't sell then I still got light rocks
If my album doesn't sell, I still have my jewelry
Like wearing Timbs with Nike socks
Wearing conflicting styles
And the lil' bit of money I did make I put it in light stocks
Investing the little money I have in safe stocks

We have children in the music industry, and we're sure who the fathers are

If we don't have a relationship with you, your talent isn't impressive
You need a gimmick, go run around the block with Puff
