[00:27.15] | (Talking bout the ghetto) |
[00:30.56] | The ghetto |
[00:36.69] | (Funk funky ghetto) |
[00:39.54] | Even though the streets are bumpy, lights burned out |
[00:42.79] | Dope fiends die with a pipe in their mouths |
[00:45.18] | Old school buddies not doing it right |
[00:47.35] | Every day it's the same |
[00:48.40] | And it's the same every night |
[00:49.66] | I wouldn't shoot you bro but I'd shoot that fool |
[00:52.10] | If he played me close and tried to test my cool |
[00:54.60] | Every day I wonder just how I'll die |
[00:56.95] | Only thing I know is how to survive |
[00:59.50] | There's only one rule in the real world |
[01:01.74] | And that's to take care of you, only you and yours |
[01:04.18] | Keep dealing with the hard times day after day |
[01:06.58] | Might deal me some dope but then crime don't pay |
[01:09.03] | Black man tried to break into my house again |
[01:11.28] | Thought he got off early doing time in the pen |
[01:13.88] | Even though my brothers do me just like that |
[01:16.23] | I get a lot of love so I'm giving it back to the |
[01:18.55] | The ghetto |
[01:20.04] | (Talking bout the ghetto) |

[01:24.93] | (Funk funky ghetto) |
[01:28.23] | The ghetto |
[01:30.10] | (Try live a life) |
[01:34.30] | The ghetto |
[01:35.08] | (Would tell about it TooShort) |
[01:37.55] | So just peep the game and don't call it crap |
[01:40.07] | Cause to me, life is one hard rap |
[01:42.50] | Even though my sister smoked crack cocaine |
[01:44.90] | She was nine months pregnant, ain't nothing changed |
[01:47.50] | 600 million on a footbal team |
[01:49.65] | And her baby dies just like a dope fiend |
[01:52.27] | The story I tell is so incomplete |
[01:54.56] | Five kids in the house and no food to eat |
[01:56.95] | Don't look at me and don't ask me why |
[01:59.46] | Mama's next door getting high |
[02:01.71] | Even though she's got five mouths to feed |
[02:04.16] | She's rather spend her money on a H-I-T |
[02:06.60] | I always tell the truth about things like this |
[02:09.01] | I wonder if the mayor overlooked that list |
[02:11.30] | Instead of adding to the task force send some help |
[02:13.83] | Waiting on him I'd better help myself |
[02:16.24] | Housing Authority and the O.P.D. |
[02:18.65] | All these guns just to handle me in the |
[02:21.06] | The ghetto |
[02:22.89] | (People all dying) |
[02:25.62] | The ghetto |
[02:27.58] | (Children all Crying) |
[02:30.44] | The ghetto |
[02:32.30] | (Soon had you lost your will) |
[02:35.27] | The ghetto |
[02:36.68] | (Do we have choose or death) |
[02:40.03] | The ghetto |
[02:44.28] | Even though they put us down and call us animals |
[02:47.09] | We make real big banks and buy brand new clothes |
[02:49.50] | Drive fancy cars, make love to stars |
[02:52.19] | Never really saying just who we are |
[02:54.56] | |
[02:57.06] | Sell you stuff you might kill for |
[02:59.48] | Young kids grow up and that's all they know |
[03:01.64] | Didn't teach him in school now he's slangin dope |
[03:04.13] | Only thing he knows is how to survive |
[03:06.34] | But will he kill another brother before he dies? |
[03:08.75] | In the ghetto, you keep one eye open |
[03:11.36] | All day long, just hoping and hoping |
[03:13.62] | You can pay your bills and not drink too much |
[03:16.11] | Then the problems of life you'll be throwing up |
[03:18.38] | Like me, but you don't see |
[03:20.75] | Ten years from now, where will you be? |
[03:23.10] | The ghetto |
[03:26.85] | (Tying get out the ghetto) |
[03:29.12] | The ghetto |
[03:31.76] | (But I got no place to go) |

[03:35.98] | (Try to survive in hell of ghetto) |
[03:38.72] | The ghetto |
[03:40.60] | (Cuz that's only place that I know) |
[03:43.75] | So much game in a Too rap |
[03:46.03] | Blacks can't be white and whites can't be black |
[03:48.48] | Why you wanna act like someone else? |
[03:50.86] | All you gotta do is just be yourself |
[03:53.24] | We're all the same color underneath |
[03:55.38] | Short Dog's in the house you'd better listen to me |
[03:58.10] | Never be ashamed of what you are |
[04:00.45] | Proud to be black stand tall at heart |
[04:02.84] | Even though some people give you no respect |
[04:05.16] | Be intelligent, when you put em in check |
[04:07.52] | Cause when you're ignorant, you get treated that way |
[04:09.83] | And when they throw you in jail you got nothing to say |
[04:12.42] | So if you don't listen it's not my fault |
[04:14.90] | I'll be getting paid while you'll be paying the cost |
[04:17.37] | Sitting in the jailhouse running your mouth |
