Oscar Auliq-Ice - We Got Our Own Code lyrics

I'm from the streets
Where the cops don't sleep
Snitches on every corner
Trying to make a quick creep
Trying to keep my head low
But the pressure's too strong
Feel like I'm running a race
But the finish line's gone

Living in the hood ain't easy
But we got heart
Always gotta watch our backs
Right from the start
We don't trust the police
We got our own code
Snitches better watch out, we don't fold

Police cars rolling, sirens loud as hell
Trying to catch a suspect
But they can't tell
We stay together, we stick as one
'Cause the streets are cold, nowhere to run

Living in the hood ain't easy
But we got heart
Always gotta watch our backs
Right from the start
We don't trust the police
We got our own code
Snitches better watch out, we don't fold

The streets are unforgiving, it ain't no joke
Sometimes it's hard to survive
When you're broke
But we stay strong, we fight with pride
We won't let the system take our lives

Living in the hood ain't easy
But we got heart
Always gotta watch our backs
Right from the start
We don't trust the police
We got our own code
Snitches better watch out, we don't fold

The streets, the police, the snitches
It's all a game but we stand tall
'cause we ain't afraid of the pain
We're survivors, we're fighters
That's who we are
Living in the hood ain't easy
But we've come this far
