Ghetto Child |
| Yo, this is B Brown |
| We gon lay ya back on this Benzino track, right |
| Two times |
| (Bobby Brown) |
| Eye for an eye (Ghetto, ghetto) |
| Strong will survive (Yeah, yeah) |
| Everyday struggle to stay alive |
| Look deep inside (My ghetto child) |
| Bet cha wanna ride |
| Ghetto child gon learn to fly (Ghetto child) |
| Now being born in the ghetto, it’s hard, believe me |
| Not just a job, anything ain’t easy |
| You go through rough times, you go through hard times |
| And times even tougher than that |
| But what I got is a mans best friend |
| I know I’ll fail staying in a house that your bed shield |
| Brothers’ll stick you up and in it they’ll take pride |
| Only bulletproof is if you don’t need outside |
| It’s a living hell, you got to be the guy |
| Cause if not, you get popped, ya be another victim of homicide |
| Peer pressure pounds and if you ain’t stressful |
| You got to be live-full |
| Black to feed the back |
| Never second guess a professor |
| Your not see-through, your not even equal |
| But that’s the price you pay being born in the ghetto |
| Let me explain to you, un-hunh, some game is the truth |
| Mainly I speak to the youth |
| I used to hustle drugs with a crew |
| I was young and green and hungry, what’s a nigga to do? |
| We used to smoke weed on the roof and let the ions loose |
| While shorty saw us off the ninety proof |
| Lost to the streets |
| Loved to rhyme so throw me a beat and flow would make the joint complete |
| At the same time I gots ta eat |
| Took a stands, stole a seat jumped in the game to compete |
| Unaware of the heat, there’s was def from cheek to cheek |
| No sleep for two weeks stated all kinds of beef |
| Been through hell and back before I was grown |
| No pops to teach me to how spread my wings and fly, I did that on my own |
| Made it this far and I’ma keep goin |
| Y’all ain’t knowin, I’m still here and keep growin, from a ghetto child |
| It ain’t nothing about hits |
| It’s about these grits |
| Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto, the ghetto |
| Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto, the ghetto |
| Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto, the ghetto |
| Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto, the ghetto |
| Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto, the ghetto |
| Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto, the ghetto |
| Born in the ghetto, the ghetto, the ghetto |
| Being born in the… |
| Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto |
| Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto |
| Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto, the ghetto |
| Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto |
| Being born in the ghetto |
| Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto, the ghetto |
| Don’t make it up, don’t make it up |
