Every time I do it,

I do it for my hood

And every time I do it,

I do it for yo hood

And every time I do it,

I do it for they hood

It's understood,

I do it for the hood

Every time I do it,

I do it for my hood

And every time I do it,

I do it for yo hood

And every time I do it,

I do it for they hood

It's understood,

I do it for the hood

The streets love Jeezy and I love 'em back

And if I still had the work,

I frontcha sack, hey

It's all gravy,

still reaching wit my words

And make 'em feel good

like the first and the third

Take you back when

I was sixteen, wit a bankroll

Posted on a corner like a light pole

They used to call us track stars

Before they even stopped,

we ran to dem cars

And everybody on the

block got the same agenda

Hustle from January 'til

the end of December

Wasn't smokin' purple,

then it was more like Bobby Brown

On that hen dog straight,

got a n***a drinking brown

You, you, 7/11,

n***a you know

You know 10 to 4, shake 'em up,

talk shit, get my drink and let 'em go

Even when I'm on the road,

the gangstas stay in touch

Why the f**k you think they love me so much

Every time I do it,

I do it for my hood

And every time I do it,

I do it for yo hood

And every time I do it,

I do it for they hood

It's understood,

I do it for the hood

Every time I do it,

I do it for my hood

And every time I do it,

I do it for yo hood

And every time I do it,

I do it for they hood

It's understood,

I do it for the hood

I'm talking summertime cookouts

and wintertime flights

It ain't nothing,

we hearing shots all night

Ford Taurus pulls up everybody run

White boys jump out,

running wit they guns, 5-0, 5-0

Ford Taurus leave,

everybody came back, hey

Hope dem boyz didn't find my sack

Real recognize,

real I suppose

I guess that's why the

gangstas be at all my shows

Got the deal,

nothing changed but my clothes

Still catch me in the jects,

f**kin' wit dem hoes, projects

Like coo-coo cal

Lord, I wish mad Lou could see me now

Wish gold mouth was home,

mailman was free

A lot of n***az crossing over,

no dog, no, not me

Close to ever been in the commercials,

when I watch TV

And everybody know I rep these streets faithfully

Every time I do it,

I do it for my hood

And every time I do it,

I do it for yo hood

And every time I do it,

I do it for they hood

It's understood,

I do it for the hood

Every time I do it,

I do it for my hood

And every time I do it,

I do it for yo hood

And every time I do it,

I do it for they hood

It's understood,

I do it for the hood

Ford Taurus pull up,

everybody run

White boys jump out,

running wit they guns

Ford Taurus leave,

everybody came back, hey

Hope dem boyz didn't find my sack

Every time I do it,

I do it for my hood

And every time I do it,

I do it for yo hood

And every time I do it,

I do it for they hood

It's understood,

I do it for the hood

Every time I do it,

I do it for my hood

And every time I do it,

I do it for yo hood

And every time I do it,

I do it for they hood

It's understood
