Hood Now (outro) Lyrics - Food & Liquor Ii - Lupe Fiasco

This one for the hood! 

What do you do when it's so unequal? 

Wear Michael Jordan's with your tuxedos 

It's hood now 

It's hood now 

Yea, yea 

It's "hood" now 

Public school system only teaching parts 

So the school of hard knocks is what make you street smart 

You're hood now 

Hood now 

Yea, yea 

Hood now 

Open fire hydrant 'front the liquor store 

Kool and perm ads all on the billboards 

You in the hood now 

You in the hood now 

That's right 

You in the hood now 

Ramen noodle soups, you make the best 

Water in the milk to make it stretch 

That's the hood now 

That's the hood now 

That's the hood now 

That's the hood now 

Ivy League was running really well then 

They slipped up and let Cornel in 

It's hood now 

It's hood now 

Yes it is 

It's hood now 

In Miami Beach, it's rich white folks 

But Memorial Day, you-know-who do the most 

It's hood now 

It's hood now 

It's hood now 

Yea, it's hood now 

And house shoes is for the house fool 

The homies wear 'em out, how cool 

It's hood now 

It's hood now 

That's hood now 

Oh yea, that's hood now 

And that Mercedes Benz, on them giant rims 

Open up the trunk and see 'bout twenty 10s 

That's hood now 

It's hood now 

That's hood now 

Oh yea, that's hood now 

And diamond chains was for kings and queens 

But since we got to 'em they'll never be the same 

They hood now 

They hood now 

Bling, Bling 

It's hood now 

You pissed her off, you broke the rules 

Her earrings out, she taking off her shoes 

It's hood now 

It's hood now 

It's about to be... 

Really hood now 

Chop up Jazz, loop up the Rock 

Sample the Blues, call it Hip-Hop 

It's hood now 

It's hood now 

Yea mayne 

It's hood now
