Chinese Slippers
Celebrating Life in the Hood: A Block Party Anthem
Lyrics
I'm hood as fuck in a bonnet outside
I embody a strong sense of identity within my neighborhood, despite unconventional appearances.
Ain't nobody got a car, ain't nobody fuckin' drive
There's a lack of access to cars or transportation among us, and thus, nobody is driving.
So we all fuckin' poor, ain't nobody gotta lie
We are all experiencing financial hardship, and there's no need to pretend otherwise.
Ain't nobody tryna flex and ain't nobody tryna hide
None of us are trying to show off or conceal our true selves.
know we all from the hood and we all gonna die
We all come from the same neighborhood, and eventually, we will all face mortality.
So we just havin' fun and we just gettin' live
We are enjoying ourselves and living life to the fullest.
Couple neighbors in the front, couple neighbors to the side
There are neighbors nearby, witnessing the gathering.
Now the cops is on deck but we still getting' high
Despite the police presence, we continue to consume substances.
Yeah, we still blowin' smoke
We are still smoking marijuana.
We just fuck with weed, we don't fuck with the coke
We prefer marijuana over cocaine.
Couple cups of Henny 'cause you know we all broke
Due to financial constraints, we're only able to afford a few cups of Hennessy.
It's a celebration and we happier than most
Despite our circumstances, we're celebrating and feeling happier than most.
I'm a crazy ho (ho), you already know (know)
Expressing a bold and uninhibited personality.
Chinese slippers in this bitch, 'bout to make a show (show)
Wearing Chinese slippers and preparing to put on a performance or display.
'Bout to light it up (up), and I'm high as fuck (fuck)
Preparing to smoke marijuana and feeling intensely intoxicated.
Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Pizza Hut
Repetition of fast food chains symbolizing familiarity or abundance of these places around.
Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Pizza Hut
-Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Pizza Hut
-Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Pizza Hut
-McDonald's, McDonald's

It's a block party, and we gettin' started
Describing the beginning of a lively neighborhood gathering or party.
Everybody got a chair, flyer in the lobby
Everyone has a place to sit, and there are event flyers present.
Got the speakers up, fire hydrant on
Loud music is playing, and a fire hydrant is open for kids to play in the water.
All the kids is actin' up, we just play along
Children are misbehaving, and everyone is enjoying the playful atmosphere.
Couple candles in the corner and an offer in the bread
Candles are lit, and there's a sense of reverence or respect being paid.
Everybody pourin' liquor, showin' OG to the dead
People are pouring alcohol as a tribute to the deceased.
We just wanna get ahead, we just out here tryna win
We all aim to progress in life and succeed.
Everybody make a cross when they know they 'bout to sin
People acknowledge their wrongdoings or vices by making a symbolic religious gesture.
Couple shorties finna fight and they 'bout to get it in
There's about to be a physical altercation between some girls.
Welcome to the block, here we go again
This situation is a regular occurrence in the neighborhood.
I'm a crazy ho (ho), you already know (know)
Reiteration of a bold and uninhibited personality.
Chinese slippers in this bitch, 'bout to make a show (show)
Reiterating the presence of Chinese slippers and readiness for a display.
'Bout to light it up (up), and I'm high as fuck (fuck)
Reaffirming the intention to smoke marijuana and feeling intensely intoxicated.
Kentucky Fried Chicken and a Pizza Hut
Continued repetition of fast-food chains, reinforcing a sense of familiarity or abundance in the neighborhood.
