[Intro -CYCO]
Yo
This is for all the crazy neighborhoods out there
We call this nutty block
[Chorus: The Miracles]
Ooh, alright now, here we go, woo
Ooh, alright now, here we go, woo
Ooh, alright now, here we go, woo
Ooh, tell 'em how stupid you can get (Here we go)
[Verse 1: Rodney O]
For the nutty block, it's time for the lyric
And every city is it own worst critic
And every block got the [?] the launches
And every block got to [?] the hardest
Face the fact any block can get nutty
Catch you slippin' when you ain't with your buddy
Now you're running, but you used to be the chaser
For the record, Rodney O ain't no gangster
I write the rhyme to the nutty block swing
Slump to this and image the scene
Brother drinking 40, some rolling dice
Knuckleheads at the bus stop starting fights
[Interlude: Joe Cooley]
Yeah, what's up, nigga
You know my block is nutty, word up
What's 'bout your block, you know
You know my block is down fool
What's up with that?
Man, my block is more nuttier than yours Cooley
We gon' drive by you, that motherfucker get to spraying up niggas
You know what I'm saying? Word up
Aw, your set wasn't real though
It wasn't real like my set fool
Hey man, what do you talkin' 'bout set, you need to sit your ass down
[Verse 2: General Jeff]
From city to city, everybody rocking to the nitty gritty
Where neighborhoods don't look pretty
The ghetto, but I know it better as the hood
Cause that other term is just Hollywood
But everybody got a hood cause that's where you live it
My neighborhood always hung in a pack
In fact, we always hung out at one spot
Better known as the nutty block
Teenagers, hanging out on a street corner
If we didn't know you, you got treated like a foreigner
Where's your pack? Where were you from? Where you going?
The girls in this hood ain't hoing, knowing
That you ain't from this set, it's your best bet
To act like a seven forty seven in check
Cause you get rolled on, [?]
Jacking fools cause we the rules
And it was legal, even the police didn't want none
Cause we had guns that kept them on the run
And it was nutty, but that was all way of life
And nobody complained if it was wrong or right
We wasn't all gang banging, we were down for our set
And our homies, but we couldn't tolerate phony
Some of us left the hood for fame
But never forgot what we came from
The nutty
[Outro: Joe Cooley]
Yeah, what's up fool
You ain't from B-L-O-C-K fool cause we were real nutty
Aw naw, you ain't tough, you don't know what a nut is
You looking at a nut, you're looking at a real nut right here
Nutty block right here man, [?] some, anyways
Any city could get nutty, but anytime you step into the wrong nutty block
You get dem bangs put on, you know what I'm saying
Especially in my nutty block
