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 ni**a drinking brown

You, you, 7/11, ni**a you know
You know 10 to 4, shake `em up, talk s**t, 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 ni**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, I do it for the hood
