[Chorus: Monica & (Jermaine Dupri)]
I'm too hood for you (Uh-huh)
I ain't tryna act too good for you (No)
I'm just tryna tell ya what's really true
Baby, I don't think you can handle this (I'm too)
I'm too hood for you (Yeah)
Tell me what you know about ridin' all chromed out
Hair braided up with the golds in ya mouth (Uh)
Nothin', nothin' (So So Def)
[Verse 1: Monica & (Jermaine Dupri)]
I don't wanna pull ya cards (Oh)
Play you out, call you soft
But the line you just kicked to me (Uh-huh)
It won't get you nowhere with me
I can see that you are not
The kinda guy that I like
Me and you could never be
Your too nice and just too pretty
And I'm
[Chorus: Monica & (Jermaine Dupri)]
I'm too hood for you
I ain't tryna act too good for you (No)
I'm just tryna tell ya what's really true
Baby, I don't think you can handle this (I'm too)
I'm too hood for you (Uh-huh)
Tell me what you know about ridin' all chromed out
Hair braided up with the golds in ya mouth (Uh)
Nothin', nothin' (I'm too)
[Verse 2: Monica & (Jermaine Dupri)]
It's not ya fault, I'm from da hood (Uh-huh)
I love 'em bad and hate 'em good
To keep it real with you, honеstly
That's the only type to figure dat can handlе me
All tatted up, or faded up (Uh-huh, uh-huh)
A playa that don't give a what (That's me)
I'm the only one he lets inside
When he does his ride or die
Darling, that's why I'm
[Chorus: Monica & (Jermaine Dupri)]
I'm too hood for you (Too hood)
I ain't tryna act too good for you (Uh-huh)
I'm just tryna tell ya what's really true
Baby, I don't think u can handle this
I'm too hood for you (For you)
Tell me what you kno' about ridin' on chromed out
Hair braided up with the golds in ya mouth (Uh-huh)
Nothin', nothin' (I'm too)
[Bridge: Monica & (Jermaine Dupri)]
I try not to let it show (Say what)
But something says, "Mo' let it go"
And let ya self be free
'Cause I can take myself out da hood
But can't take the hood outta me
I'm Gansta'
Got diamonds in my teeth
So ghetto (So ghetto)
Ya'll just want a piece
I gotta have the heart to play the part
And talk the talk to walk these streets
I'm too hood
[Rap: The Hoodfellaz]
[Chorus: Monica & (Jermaine Dupri)]
(Now you see) I'm too hood for you (Just what I mean)
I ain't tryna act too good for you (I'm too hood)
I'm just tryna tell ya what's really true (Oh-oh)
Baby, I don't think you can handle this
I'm too hood for you
Tell me what you know about ridin' on chromed out
Hair braided up with the golds in ya mouth (Uh-huh)
Nothin', nothin' (I'm too)
(I'm, oh I'm) I'm too hood for you
I ain't tryna act too good for you (I'm not tryna be)
I'm just tryna tell ya what's really true (I'm not tryna be nothing)
Baby, I don't think you can handle this (I do)
(See, I like your thuggish thing) I'm too hood for you (Say what)
Tell me what you know about ridin' all chromed out
Hair braided up with the golds in ya mouth
Nothin', nothin' (I'm too)
I'm too hood for you (Uh-huh)
I ain't tryna act too good for you (No)
I'm just tryna tell ya what's really true
Baby, I don't think you can handle this (I do)
I'm too hood for you
Tell me what you know about ridin' all chromed out
Hair braided up with the golds in ya mouth
Nothin', nothin'
