"The Neighborhood" lyrics

"The Neighborhood"

There's a fire across the street
Back in the alley way
Somebody broke somebody's jaw
And then they
Put them in the grave

Cops busted in the house next door
They found a
Bag of cocaine
[?] standing in my front yard
Talking all insane

You know they're up to no good
Down in the neighborhood

My next door neighbor done caught her man
With the deacon's wife
He was headed to the baptist church
Where she took his life

All these alarms got me up all night
You know I get no sleep
A man tried to break in my back door
I put a gun on me

You know they're up to no good
Down in the neighborhood

If you're looking for some peace and quiet
Some place you can leave behind your fear
[?]
Don't you come around here

There's a robbery at the grocery store
Someone done got shot
Lost his life over 15 dollars
Tryna not get caught

Look who's walking up and down my street
My kids can't walk to school
Someone crashed their car in my front yard
Trying to just look cool

You know they're up to no good
Down in the neighborhood
Down in the neighborhood

You know they're up to no good
Down in the neighborhood
Down in the neighborhood
