Ghetto, Ghetto, Ghetto, Ghetto livin
|
|
[Verse one]
|
|
These streets remind me of quicksand (quicksand)
|
When your on it you'll keep goin down (goin down)
|
And there's noone to hold on too
|
And there's noone to pull you out
|
You keep on fallin (falling)
|
And noone can here you callin
|
So you end up self destructing
|
On the corner with the tuli on the waist line just got outta the bing doin state time
|
Teeth marks on my back from the canine
|
Dark Memories of when there was no sunshine
|
Cause they said that I wouldn't make it
|
(I remember like yesterday)
|
Holdin on to what god gave me
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Cause thats the life when ur
|
Living in the (ghetto)and
|
Eating in the (ghetto)or
|
Sleeping in the (ghetto) (ghetto)
|
Cause thats the life when ur
|
Living in the (ghetto)and
|
Eating in the (ghetto)or
|
Sleeping in the (ghetto, ghetto, ghetto)
|
|
[Verse two]
|
|
No need to cherish luxuries (cause everythin' come and go)
|
Even the life that you have is borrowed
|
(Cause your not promised tomorrow)
|
So live your life as if everydays' gon be your last
|
Once you move forward can't go back
|
Best prepare to remove your past
|
|
Cause ya gotta be willin to pray
|
Yea There gotta be (there gotta be) a better way oh
|
Yea ya gotta be willing to pray
|
Cause there gotta be (there gotta be) a better day (ay)
|
|
Whoever said that this struggle would stop today
|
A lot of niggas dead or locked away
|
Teenage Women growing up with aids
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Cause thats the life when your
|
Living in the (ghetto) oh
|
Eating in the (ghetto) or
|
Sleeping in the (ghetto, ghetto)
|
Thats the life when ur
|
Living in the (ghetto)oh
|
Eating in the (ghetto) or
|
Sleeping in the (ghetto, ghetto, ghetto)
|
|
[Bridge]
|
|
Gun shots every night in the (ghetto)
|
Crooked cops on sight in the (ghetto)
|
Every day is a fight in the (ghetto)
|
(oh oh oh oh oh) (ghetto)
|
Got kids to feed in the (ghetto)
|
Selling coke and weed in the (ghetto)
|
Every day somebody bleed in the (ghetto)
|
(oh oh oh oh oh) (ghetto)
|
|
[Chorus]
|
|
Thats the life when your
|
Living in the (ghetto)oh
|
Living by the (ghetto)oh
|
Eating in the (ghetto, ghetto)
|
Thats the life when your
|
Living in the (ghetto)oh
|
Sleeping in the (ghetto)
|
Living in the (ghetto, ghetto, ghetto)
|
