Kelis Rollin` Thru The Hood Lyrics

Rollin` Thru The Hood Lyrics




[VERSE 1]

Yesterday, I rolled through the hood

And I seen somethin'

And it hurt me

Yesterday, I rolled throught the hood

And I seen somethin'

And it hurt me

You were talkin' to that woman

Like you could show her somethin'

And I didn't know what to do

You pulled out your pen and paper

And I know it your number you gave her

I never thought this bad dream would come true



[CHORUS]

Baby I want you to know

The suburbs to the ghetto

Joy is joy and pain is pain...pain

One day sooner than you know

We'll be livin' tomorrow

And we'll be laughin' about today...today



[VERSE 2]

Yesterday, I rolled through the hood

And I seen somethin'

And it hurt me

Yesterday, I rolled throught the hood

And I seen somethin'

And it hurt me

You were talkin' to your boys

And though y'all didn't make noise

You tapped him and you pointed at this woman

Then she turned around

As if she'd been found

And all I know my heart started jumpin'



[CHORUS]

Baby I want you to know

The suburbs to the ghetto

Joy is joy and pain is pain...pain

One day sooner than you know

We'll be livin' tomorrow

And we'll be laughin' about today...today



[REPEAT 2x]

Maybe tomorrow...Maybe tomorrow

Maybe tomorrow...Maybe tomorrow



[BRIDGE]

Beautiful baby don't you know you mean the world to me 

The moon would lose the sky if you don't stay

Did I ever tell you that you were my sunshine?

So basically if you leave, there is no day



[VERSE 3]

Yesterday, I rolled throught the hood

And I seen somethin'

And it hurt me

Yesterday, I rolled throught the hood

And I seen somethin'

And it hurt me

Instead of scorin' high in college

We're scorin' high in gargabe

And not rememberin' who we are

And not to mention...forgettin' who God is

Don't know that you're special

And God will never forget you

The world is used, watch what you do with it



[CHORUS]

Baby I want you to know

The suburbs to the ghetto

Joy is joy and pain is pain...pain

One day sooner than you know

We'll be livin' tomorrow

And we'll be laughin' about today...today



[REPEAT 2x]

Maybe tomorrow...Maybe tomorrow

Maybe tomorrow...Maybe tomorrow
