I was raised a little young nigga doin' bad shit
|
Talk much shit, cause I never had shit
|
I can remember bein' whooped in class
|
And if I didn't pass momma would whoop my ass
|
Was it my fault poppa didn't plan it out?
|
Broke out left me to be the man of the house.
|
I couldn't take it, had to make a profit
|
Found a block, got a glock, and I clocked grip
|
Makin G's was my mission
|
Movin enough of this shit to get my momma out the kitchen
|
And why must I sock a fella
|
Just to live large like Rockafella
|
First you didn't give a fuck, but you learnin now
|
If you don't respect our town, then will burn you down
|
God Dam, it's a mutherfuckin riot
|
Black people on a rage, police so don't try it
|
If your not from the town, then don't pass through
|
Cause some O G's, fools might blast you
|
It ain't right but it's long overdue
|
We can't have peace, till the niggas get a piece too
|
I want G so you labeled me a criminal
|
And if I die, I wonda if heaven's got a ghetto.
|
|
I wonder if heaven's got a ghetto
|
I wonder if heaven's got a ghetto
|
I wonder if heaven's got a ghetto
|
I wonder if heaven's got a ghetto
|
|
|
Here on earth
|
Tell me whats a black life worth
|
A bottle of juice is no excuse, the truth hurts
|
And even when you take the shit
|
Move cowards get a lawyer, you can shake the shit
|
Ask Rodney, Natasha, and many more
|
It's been goin on for years, theres plenty more
|
When they ask me when will I violence cease?
|
When your troops stop shootin niggas down in the streets
|
Niggas had enough, time to make a difference
|
Bear witness on are own business
|
fuck the gaurd cause it's hard tryin to make ends meet
|
But we couldn't afford the shit, now everythings free
|
So we loot, please don't shot when ya see
|
I'm takin from them, cause for years they would take from me
|
Now the tables are turned around
|
You didn't listen until the nigga burned it down
|
Now Bush can't stop the hit
|
I predict the shit, in 2pacalypse
|
And for once I was down with niggas
|
Felt good in the Hood, being around the niggas yeah
|
And the first time everybody let go
|
The streets is death row
|
I wonda if heaven's got a ghetto.
|
|
|
(Chorus)
|
|
|
I see no changes, all I see is racist faces
|
Misplaced hate makes disgraced races
|
We under, I wonder what it takes to make this
|
One better place, let erase the wasted
|
Take the evil out the people they'll be actin right
|
Cause both black and white is smokin crack tonight
|
And the only time we deal is when we kill each other
|
It takes skill to be real, time to heal each other
|
Although it seems heaven sent
|
We ain't ready to have a black president huh
|
And ain't a secret don't conceal the fact
|
The penitentiary's packed, and it's filled with blacks
|
I wake up in the mornin, and ask myself
|
Is life worth livin ,should I blast myself
|
I'm tired of being poor and even worse, I'm black
|
My stomach hurts, so I'm lookin for a purse to snatch
|
Cops give a damn about a negro
|
Pull a trigga, kill a nigga , he's a hero
|
Mo' nigga, mo' nigga, mo' niggas
|
Rather be a dead then a po' nigga
|
Let the lord judge the criminals, and If I die
|
I wonda if heaven's got a ghetto.
|
|
|
(Chorus until it fades out)
