  • See this is Harlem, these our streets
    Hungry Ham, that's all we eatin'
    Them niggas out here shining, niggas out here dying
    'Cause we never got along
    We all go getters, we go get it
    Some gon' fake it, half won't make it
    Get a chance to make it out, we taking it

    Block, Hungry Ham
    'Cause that's my block, Hungry Ham
    'Cause that's my block, Hungry Ham
    'Cause that's my block, Hungry Ham
    'Cause that's my block, Hungry Ham
    'Cause that's my block, Hungry Ham
    'Cause that's my block, Hungry Ham
    Nigga what's your block? Hungry Ham

    Grandma used to call me Mickey Mouse but I'm no rat
    On the block they threw a couple bullets, Warren Sapp
    Seen my nigga's family members buggin' off the crack
    Your uncle smell like shit like he got garbage in his ass
    I'm from 143rd, I come from Hungry Ham, ya heard?
    Where the pigs'll lay you down and make a nigga bite the curb
    Them kids is poppin' Percs because they claim it cool they nerves
    My crazy ass neighbors sprinkle HOO-HOO-HOO
    Street name was Stirrin', smell like shit, vomit, urine
    When my bitches come over they have the look of concerning
    Like why he stand in the hallway with a milk carton and be lurking?
    Why he jumping for joy when the whole building was just burning?
    What about that nigga's sash? Wore the socks on his hands
    Purple coats in the summer, with the Glock in his pants
    And he stabbed his own mama, how you do that to your fam?
    'Cause my block full of lunatics, call my shit Hungry Ham
    Damn!

    Block, Hungry Ham
    'Cause that's my block, Hungry Ham
    'Cause that's my block, Hungry Ham
    'Cause that's my block, Hungry Ham
    'Cause that's my block, Hungry Ham
    'Cause that's my block, Hungry Ham
    'Cause that's my block, Hungry Ham

    Nigga fuck your block, Hungry Ham
    Nigga fuck your block, Hungry Ham
    Nigga fuck your block, Hungry Ham

    My auntie ask my mama, "did Darold quit his job?"
    I seen him three days straight sitting on a car
    My mama screaming, "Darold, c'mon, you ain't quit yo job!"
    Mama yes I did (Darold!)
    My mama barking like doggies
    In front of my aunt and my shorty
    I tell her, "I am a rapper" she suck her teeth and ignore me
    All she see is my gold teeth, with a white bitch and some 40's
    I'm getting fame on computers, she don't think this shit is for me
    I used to pray for more women, now I get dozens of oldies
    When I be hittin' it doggie, she bark like HOO-HOO-HOO (Oh my, I'm horny!)
    Only when you want sex you callin' me
    Tellin' me how much you want me
    But I think you're full of baloney
    I ain't stressin' you shorty, my shorty be stressin' me, shorty
    Claimin' I'm messin' with shorties and be undressin' them shorties
    I ain't get no head from them shorties
    Don't be in the bed with them shorties
    Now what these condoms for?
    And please don't say these Magnums is for me

    I'm-I'm-I'm-I'm from Hungry Ham, y'all ought to know
    Better get your ass another plan if you want to blow
    Can't play this corner for no more summers if you get my flow
    We catching meat, but y'all niggas is buns, HOO-HOO-HOO

    Block, Hungry Ham
    'Cause that's my block, Hungry Ham
    'Cause that's my block, Hungry Ham
    'Cause that's my block, Hungry Ham
    'Cause that's my block, Hungry Ham
    'Cause that's my block, Hungry Ham
    'Cause that's my block, Hungry Ham
    Nigga what's your block? Hungry Ham
    Nigga fuck your block, Hungry Ham
    Nigga fuck your block, Hungry Ham
    Nigga fuck your block, Hungry Ham
    Nigga fuck your block, Hungry Ham
    Better wear your Glock, Hungry Ham
