Home Sweet Home
Kool G Rap DJ Polo Lyrics

Brothers on the corner sellin' junk
Drug dealers on the street corner

got held up by the hotties got the shotties in the trunk
They were robbed at gunpoint by women with firearms

You got the hard rocks wavin' glocks at the punks
Gang members threatening weaker individuals with guns

Police only harass you when they want to get a chunk
Law enforcement officers only bother you when they want to make an arrest or get a bribe

They got so many corners and they got so many spots
Drug dealers have many locations to sell from

And I can't even bump up the block
The singer can't even walk down the street

without the "Yo man what you got?"
Without someone asking if he has drugs to sell

I'm walkin' past somebody lookin' strange
The artist walks by someone acting suspicious

He's lookin' for a hit for veins
The person is searching for drugs to inject

or he'll blow out somebody's brains
He may resort to violence if he can't find drugs

Even the shorties livin' naughty lives
Even young people are involved in criminal activity

Walkin' around, even drive around, with big forty-fives
They carry large guns with them on the street or in cars

I just found out the candy store's a front
The candy store is a cover for drug sales

They walk in the candy store
People go into the store pretending to buy candy

Man G, candy's far from what they want
They are looking to buy drugs, not candy

You might see a pickle or a popsicle
There are some food items for sale in the store

But if you step to the back, you get dimes, twenties, and nickels
The real merchandise is sold in the back of the store

Honey used to look like a winner
A female used to be attractive

Now she can't even get took to dinner
She's no longer desirable enough to be taken out to eat

cause so many dealers ran up in her
She has had sex with many drug dealers

Somebody's blood is on the tar
There has been a violent incident resulting in blood on the street

Last night was a homicide from a fight inside the bar
Someone was killed during a brawl at a bar

Loudmouth tryin' to show her ass, but somebody
A woman trying to show off is caught doing something

broke a whiskey bottle and cut her butt up with the glass
She was attacked and injured with a broken bottle

Money got robbed for his bank
A person was robbed of their money and possessions

They broke in his house and took everything
Thieves entered someone's home and stole all their belongings

except the kitchen sink
The only thing not taken was the kitchen sink

Little man murdered on the scene
A boy was killed

He tried to come off at the liquor store, he's only 17
He tried to steal from a liquor store despite being underage

Granny's damn near pushin' 80
An elderly woman is almost 80 years old

A couple of hoods grabbed her pocketbook, and stabbed up the lady
Two criminals took her purse and injured her with a knife

Cover your head, cause it's a dead zone, in the red zone
Be cautious, because it's a dangerous and violent area

Three card molly, another man to fool
A type of gambling game used to scam people

Whites will stop at the red lights, to look at us like animals
White people will stare at and stereotype people of color

I'm gettin' frisked by the cops
The singer is being searched by the police

They only tryin' to get props, for blowin' off a black man's top
The police are trying to make a name for themselves by shooting and killing a black man

Up in apartment 3G, this sweetie named DiDi wants to see me
A woman in apartment 3G wants to meet the singer

but yo I heard she's givin' VD
But the singer heard she has a sexually transmitted disease

Just when you think the skies are gettin' blue
Just when things seem to be improving

Bang bang -- another brother's split in two
There's another violent death

Can't sleep, cause the streets are filled with danger
The artist is afraid to sleep because of the danger outside

Miss, your little daughter's a swinger, you can't change her
A woman's daughter is promiscuous and won't change her behavior

She left with a stranger, inside a drug dealer's party
She went to a party with drug dealers and left with someone she didn't know

Now off to the morgue, to go identify her body
Now her family must go identify her body at the morgue

Sonny boy is goin' on the strip
A young man is going into a dangerous area

Robbin niggas cracks, with a mac, without a clip
He's robbing people with an unloaded gun

Somebody gave a tip, so the next time he flipped
Someone informed the police, so he was caught

and shorty got ragged, another body bag is zipped
He was caught and another person died

A baby is born and needs lovin'
A newborn baby needs love and care

but instead, the mother smothered him and shoved him in a oven
But instead, the mother killed the baby by baking it in an oven

Cops killin' our kids, but they bill us
Police are killing young people, and their families are billed for the costs

So what's more worse, the killer cops or the Cop Killers
What's worse - police killing people or people killing the police?

Everyday's another risk
Every day is dangerous

I'm even mad to go to my pad, the hallways always smell like piss
Even the singer's home is unpleasant and unsafe

No heat, just pots of hot water
There's no heating, only boiling water to keep warm

I'm walkin' eight flights up, the elevator's out of order
The artist has to walk up eight flights of stairs because the elevator is not working

Man that landlord is the lowest
The landlord is terrible

Because I let my door slam and saw a damn eviction notice
The artist was evicted for slamming a door

I felt like breakin' all his bones, psh
The singer felt like physically hurting the landlord

I'm gettin' kicked out of my home sweet home
The artist is being evicted from their home
