Ghetto Burbs |
Always had big dreams |
Everybody had big dreams though |
I never wanna stay here, I had no intentions |
And I have had no plans |
Live my life, |
Gotta know how to survive |
Just can’t hide |
'Cause these streets will eat you alive, (ghetto burbs) |
'Cause I’m from two different worlds, (ghetto burbs) |
Coming from these ghetto burbs. |
Yo yo, ghetto burbs I’m from the ghetto with Jerz |
From where the pedal is served |
Use hand, justice for words |
Pick up the LA, they was ahead of the curb |
My hooey gang bang |
You could get left from the curb |
Yea I was raised here, but I’m tryna export |
Police is crook yea, the strippers is escorts |
Like my homey Layla, really I can’t knock her |
'Cause she getting paper, month ago she was knocked up |
Baby daddy your dope boy, fresh homey was locked up |
But he on the same shit, fucked around and got shot up |
You mind saying mind, I’m like why he even bother |
At the same time don’t know what he was a part of |
And Layla over the casket, see this coming harder |
The hood went again, another summon the father |
Gotta take it astride, round here it’s the usual |
But I ain’t accustomed, that shit I can’t get used to |
I’m tryna survive |
Live my life, |
Gotta know how to survive |
Just can’t hide |
'Cause these streets will eat you alive, (ghetto burbs) |
'Cause I’m in two different worlds, (ghetto burbs) |
Coming from these ghetto burbs. |
Yo, ghetto burbs I’m from the ghetto with Jerz |
From where the ghetto’s disturbed, you can be dead and not heard |
Say you’re predaly, and ended with better or worse |
I lost faith but grandma still keep her head up in church |
Murder is sky high, employment is real low |
Little kid tryna rap, but will he get a deal? |
No |
'Cause poverty kills slow, belief is beyond you |
7−9'er every 10 bitches here got the monster like my lil homey Tania |
I met her in freak nik, freak yea |
The same bitch the niggas be all out in the street with |
Open, in love with the service |
But she got resentment, she won’t see from the surface |
So like so many women look right so she worship |
Caught aids from rape and thought her whole life was worthless |
Hoe couldn’t know how gorgeous her curbs is |
She fuckin em raw and hope they catch it on purpose |
You better survive |
Live my life, |
Gotta know how to survive |
Just can’t hide |
The streets will eat you alive, (ghetto burbs) |
'Cause I’m from two different worlds, (ghetto burbs) |
Coming from these ghetto burbs. |
Ghetto burbs I’m from the ghetto with Jerz |
I ain’t tryna act like my part of the ghetto’s the worst |
Niggas is pricks here, they’ll buy stilettos for birds |
How did I get here? |
They act like the men who don’t hurt |
Dude just getting high, guess they tryna escape it |
Won’t commit suicide, assuming they couldn’t take it |
The streets is cold, still we runnin round naked |
Success is avoid and we replace it with hatred |
That’s your homey from way back, from showing the years oh |
The friends turnin green even that after we’re old |
You thinking kid? |
No, values to sheer clothes |
Now you struggle for rent and he got ice in his ear lobes |
Your man won’t even extend a hand, meeting all his career goals |
You need a whole nother plan, your career’s broke |
Valuables are more valuable than everything, even value the dudes |
'Cause you gotta survive |
Live my life, |
Gotta know how to survive |
Just can’t hide |
These streets will eat you alive, (ghetto burbs) |
'Cause I’m in two different worlds, (ghetto burbs) |
Coming from these ghetto burbs. |
I’m from the ghetto burbs |
Gotta know how to survive |
Streets eat you up |
Coming from the ghetto burbs |
Said the streets eat you alive, alive yea yea yea |
Coming from the ghetto burbs yea |
