[Verse 1]
It's the vicious [D]cycle
of a small [Em]town
It's hard to make it out
Facts you best believe
It's like Hotel California
[D]You don't never leave
[Em]It's like Hotel California

[Verse 2]

[Verse 3]
Where I'm from [Em]people
don't make it out
You either get a job or get a hustle
And try to build yo' clout
And that's only if you don't get caught
[D]up in that vice's trap
[Em]Addicted to strong liquor or even
smokin' crack
It ain't shit down here,
[D]man, I'm trying to tell [Em]ya
And this ain't the first you heard it
Them old folks tried to tell ya
Gone to that army boy
[D]Get the hell from 'round her[Em]e
Go see something in this world
That you ain't seen, my dear
But you ain't listen
You [D]got a job makin' minimum [Em]wage
And if you work hard enough
You'll be a supervisor one of these days
Now you doin' pretty good
[D]And you makin' a lil' cha[Em]nge
You even put rims on the whip
Man, that bitch clean

[Verse 4]
It's the vicious cycle [Em]of

[Verse 6]
Now everybody in the hood [D]see you
And [Em]they know yo' name
Got a few stacks in yo' pocket
Got lil' local fame
But, boy, you still stay at
yo' mama [D]house
That shit kinda [Em]lame
But I ain't judging
'Cause she probably told ya, "You
ain't have to leave"
You just chippin' in on the light [D]bill
Living life [Em]with ease
By now you done caught the attention
Of the neighborhood skeezers
You know them chicks, they kinda cute
[D]But done fucked all the [Em]geezers?
Whole hood done ran
through 'em
It ain't really nothin' to 'em
All you see is she got a lil' [D]fatty
And a few baby [Em]dad dies
On that WIC and them food stamps
You know them local tramps
You get mesmerized
She [D]got them pretty eyes
And know how [Em]to twerk it
You start hittin' it on the regular
Damn, she know how to work it
She tell ya, "You don't
need pro[D]tection
I been on birth [Em]con trol"
So you run up in it raw
Boy, you ain't got no control
You just happy to have a steady [D]piece of ass,
you know
[Em]Didn't take long
Now you done wifed up the neighborhood ho
It ain't just a song
It's every day [G]where I'm from [Em]lil' bro
It don't take long
She done convinced you
She don't need no pill
You ain't trippin' either
way
'Cause you love the way it feel
Now you got a baby on the way

[Verse 7]
