Ghetto Life |
| Uhhh, shhhh |
| Don’t say nothin' just listen (For all y’all ghetto people out there) |
| Through like all the bloodshed |
| And all the tears and all the homies I done lost (Calliope Projects) |
| Ain’t nothing like the ghetto |
| If I had to do it all again |
| I probably wouldn’t change a thing |
| I live my life homie, but not for greed |
| Picture young sistes and brothers planting their ghetto seeds |
| Ain’t nothing promised in this ghetto but we lost cause we black |
| Picture 5 kids in the project in a one room shack |
| I had big dreams of making it big |
| I caught nightmares of fools splittin' my wig |
| I couldn’t change for the guppies that tried to hate |
| Picture me a ghetto child with a house by the lake |
| Ain’t nothing promised but we not to blame |
| Sinning, uhh to make some change |
| I wish the society feel my pain |
| Empty me underneath we all the same |
| High construction on penatentiary bars |
| They main focus is blacks with fancy cars |
| And they beat us on high interest loans |
| Repossess our property cause we don’t think to own |
| This ghetto live got us hustlin' and scufflin' |
| I said penatentiary chances keep us thuggin' and muggin' |
| Now I was known for walking on the wrong side of the tracks |
| Slanging, smoking and drinking yack, reminiscing and thinking back |
| A lot of facts have been changed we take the innocent and guilty |
| I played the cards that they dealed me |
| Went through changes that dealed me |
| Into a better man but most often I’m misunderstood |
| Call me a gangsta 'cause I relay consciousness from the hood |
| But alot of good comes from what you call negativity |
| We working with no leverage or incentive g |
| 'Cause their nothing you ever give to me |
| On television or them history books |
| Got black kids thinking they only out on this earth to be crooks |
| See all these mystery looks, that’s on the face of the boss man |
| When he can see a young black brother no longer lost man |
| They try to break your spirit, before you figure out the game |
| By the time you do you lost your fame, reputation and your name |
| But baby we can do it take your time do it right |
| You don’t wanna be a superstar overnight |
| Trying to live that ghetto life |
| I live my life for my son so he can have something |
| Blessed just to see a new day so I’m trying to grab something |
| I been on top of the world and at the bottom too |
| When you up you got lots of friends and when you down it’s few |
| The way we grew up was wrong, I’m the first to admit |
| I know God and just drop me here to be going through this |
| I lost D-Ray last year and it’s just not the same |
| Just at the time in his life when he was trying to change |
| He told me, Pimp I need help, I want up out the game |
| I made a promise, I lied cause the next night he died |
| I guess our childhood is over 'cause man ain’t nothing funny |
| And everythign that I love revolve around sex and money |
| I wanna have some more kids but in the 90's that’s crazy |
| The woman’s polluted so it ain’t safe to make babies |
| And it’s a shame cause Uncle Sam ain’t got no job to pay me |
| But pay the mightiest 40 g’s for every year they enslave me |
| It’s crazy |
