Hood Life

Hello
How the heck are ya
Could I get a dollar
Just tryna get by

Eyeroll
Sit there ’til the color changes
I’m on my way to a job I hate
And I don’t have time

There’s a place I go
Where all the cars line up to get on the interstate
And for a piece of gold
Maybe you’ll find your peace of mind before you drive away
Tell me

What is it like to be
Living that good life?
To be living it up like the king of the world
Well I’d really like to be
Getting out of this hood life
To be living it up
Diamonds and pearls

What is it like to be
Living that good life?
To be living it up like the king of the world
Well I’d really like to be
Getting out of this hood life
To be living it up
Diamonds and pearls

My home
Is a little bit smaller
I dream in a tent down by the side of the road
And my life
Is a little bit harder
I live in an article inside of your phone

Well there’s a place I know
Where the guitars smash, and the babe’s are bitchin’
Is it avaricious
That when I’m feeling low
I look at the stars, those that got fed and famous?
‘Cuz that’s what the sidewalk says

Ooh
How ‘bout that good life!
Ooh
How ‘bout that good life!

What is it like to be
Living that good life?
I’d really like to be
Getting out of this hood life

What is it like to be
Living that good life?
To be living it up like the king of the world
Well I’d really like to be
Getting out of this hood life
To be living it up
Diamonds and pearls

Ooh
Now this is the part where all the brokeass motherfuckers sing along

What is it like to be
Living that good life?
To be living it up like the king of the world
Well I’d really like to be
Getting out of this hood life
To be living it up
Diamonds and pearls

Won’t you tell me
What is it like to be
Living that good life?
To be living it up like the king of the world
Well I’d really like to be
Getting out of this hood life
To be living it up
Diamonds and pearls
