| The Ghetto would always gon' hold me down
|
| Picking me up when I’m flat on the ground
|
| Lifting me up through the dirt that I found
|
| Taking me well beyond leaps and bounds
|
| Sold to the mound? |
| soul to the clown
|
| Little window
|
| It don’t get no better when I get a little Henny kinfolk some Indo
|
| Dead in my tracks like Kimbo, slam back another 6'4
|
| Sip slow, got? |
| on my mind, flipping I’m fine
|
| Back to that ghetto smhetto
|
| Back to the basics back to the missions

| My niggas no kidding I get on this plane and I’m going insane and I’m sharing
|
| my rhythm been working on second winds
|
| I’m second to none, seconds to win
|
| Seconds to run

| First to lose it, worst to come
|
| Sippin on booze
|
| Forever young

| Little ghetto in all of us
|
| I was conceived in the back seat, of my Granddaddy’s Caddy
|
| Momma had me, she was 17 and my Pappy, was a Marine
|
| Big dreams living in the ghetto, brick cities seven levels
|
| Roses don’t grow threw concrete streets loaded with heavy metal
|
| Chase paper and chase the devil
|
| We can dance up under the moonlight
|
| We can all fight fuck it bars and stripes, red blue and white
|
| Listen at the shit I say, 'bout to sway as I convey
|
| Everyday it’s payday no they ain’t fucking around
|
| My thugs persuade

|
| Imma let it rest
|
| 7/11 I’m breaking?
|
| Making it out the Ghetto I’m living swell now
|
| I was born with a strike against me
|
| Then they told me that life is empty
|
| I don’t like it but the fight is in me
|
| Never ever would I give 'em my rights don’t tempt me
|
| Move forward, tunnel vision
|
| I channel my energy without a collision they feeling the synergy all the
|
| decisions I’m making broadcasts like a television
|
| It’s all in the ether
|
| It’s either I make it or somebody dead
|
| Cause I’m tired, I’m
|
| I’m ready to ride, rebelling cause Satan a lie
|
| Momma sit back gimme some patience
|
| For the Lord, no limits, no waiting
|
| In the ghetto wit' Layzie
|
| Too long we been dealing wit' the stress and the pressure of working with
|
| lesser than less
|
| No one would help for the drama was too much to measure, pleasure
|
| Only came when we could make her smile
|
| Treasure every day I can make her proud
|
| Better one day
|
| Wait, how 'bout now?
|
| Together we pray, all out loud
|
| I’m down, I’m not out
|
| I found a way to get out
|
| Said I couldn’t do it put my mind to it? |
| doing find a way out
|
| Bring back the love for the kids
|
| Like look what I did, you can do this
|
| You always can make it, wherever you live |
