You either working or you slanging c*****e on my block |
| [00:18.532] |
You had to hustle, 'cause that's how we was raised on my block |
| [00:21.573] |
And you stayed on your hop until you made you a knot |
| [00:24.248] |
On my block, to hang out was the thing back then |
| [00:27.751] |
And even when you left out, you came back in |

To my block, from Holloway, Bellfort, to Scott |
| [00:33.175] |
Reed Road to Phlox, we know the spots |

Niggas knew me back when I was stealing beers from Shamrock |
| [00:53.720] |
And my nickname was "Creepy" |
| [00:55.417] |
If Black June could see me, he'd be tripping |
| [00:57.517] |
And I'd bet he still try to tease me |
| [01:01.818] |
My block, where everything is everything, for sheezy |

| [01:16.912] |
On my block, it ain't no different than the next block |
| [01:19.812] |
You get drunk and pass out, and they back you to the house |
| [01:22.434] |
And when you wake up on the couch, you going right back at it |
| [01:25.486] |
On my block, when you're that ****ed up, they laugh at it |

Of the Southside of Houston Texas, making your mark |
| [01:34.425] |
On my block, we're cuing all the time, playing dominoes |
| [01:37.458] |
Keep the Swishers sweet down until my mama goes back inside |

What's going on in this house is staying here, comprende? |
| [02:14.557] |
On my block, you had to have that understanding |
| [02:17.027] |
'Cause if you told Ms. Mattie, she went and told Gladys |
| [02:20.396] |
And once your mama got it, it was all on the wire |
| [02:23.031] |
And when the word got back, they set your ass on fire |
| [02:26.739] |
On my block, we got some 'Nam vets, shellshocked |

Who never quite got right; now, they inhale rocks |
