Ain’t Goin Back Lyrics

[Chorus]
I ain't goin' back to my hood for shit
Heard they just killed Neighborhood Nip (Neighborhood)
Popping pills 'til it make me sick (Yeah)
You show the hood love, they never show it back
If they shoot, I hope I know how to react
Know some people wanna see me on my back (On my back, yeah)

[Verse 1]
Got it on me everywhere I go, I gotta take a risk
Paranoid, can't go without it
All could do is hope my bro is 'bout it (Mm, yeah)
Killing pain every time I'm on the dope (Dope)
Without it, I don't know how to cope (Cope)
Wanna pay my mama bills, I don't want no smoke
My whole life I did the things they said I can't
Lots of pressure on me that you couldn't understand
Spend a million in the hood and you get killed for ten grand

[Chorus]
I ain't goin' back to my hood for shit
Heard they just killed Neighborhood Nip (Neighbor)
Popping pills 'til it make me sick (Yeah)
You show the hood love, they never show it back
If they shoot, I hope I know how to react
Know some people wanna see me on my back (Yeah)

[Verse 2]
Back and forth from my mama, tryna move her out the Rex
Jack boys tried to pull it on me walking down the steps
Let 'em take my chain, know I'd die for my respect (Yeah)
Y'all don't feel my pain, I done seen death
Let the bullets rain, we gon' leave 'em wet
Put up a little change and I paid my debts
They got Bucksy in the cage and it got me bent
Pour another four, ain't got no way to vent (Yeah)
When he come home, I'ma give my boy a M (Bucksy)

[Chorus]
I ain't goin' back to my hood for shit
Heard they just killed Neighborhood Nip (Neighbor)
Popping pills 'til it make me sick (Sick)
You show the hood love, they never show it back
If they shoot, I hope I know how to react
Know some people wanna see me on my back (Yeah, yeah)
I ain't goin' back to my hood for shit (For shit)
Heard they just killed Neighborhood Nip (Neighbor)
Popping pills 'til it make me sick (Sick, sick)
You show the hood love, they never show it back
If they shoot, I hope I know how to react
Know some people wanna see me on my back (On my back, on my back)
