Ghetto

Dedication, Ghetto When I was a young boy, grown up in the ghetto Hanging out in corners, singing with the fellows It's hard in the ghetto, it's life in the ghetto I know where I came from, oh Everything is real, you face reality That is why I'm gonna hitch a ride Head for another side Leave it all behind Never changed my mind Gonna sail away, sunlight's another day Freedom on my mind Life is like the coldest winter the people freeze There's tears and cry Cause I can, you can make it out of ghetto You can make it anywhere You can make it anywhere Living in a ghetto It's hard in the ghetto, it's life in the ghetto Ghetto, ghetto, ghetto, ghetto Living in the ghetto It's hard in the ghetto, it's life in the ghetto Ghetto, ghetto, ghetto, ghetto, ghetto Lord this life I'm living I can't even call it living I can't even make a living Why the hell am I still living Why? Cause my son need to grow Cause my son need to glow Cause my son need to know That without him I'm nothing But a rhyme and a flow But I got it all in lock now I got it all in lock down I'm heading for the top now I'm heading for the top now Ooh, Meme, don't stop now Yeah, Meme, don't stop now And I know you don't like to blame your circumstances But, lil' homie, under these circumstances You need to be on top of your circumstance I feel questioned where to answer And I ain't got friends, no, I ain't got woes Yeah, these homies can change on you dog Yeah, these chameleons they come and go I feel like Equal rights, is just all for the show It feel like I'm going for nowhere It feel like I'm working my ass off for nothing It feel like these homies that say they got my back Is frontin It feel like I'm running from something I know that I probably lost a big part of me Due to the poverty weak economically Smoking that hubbly, sipping that purple drink I'm an anomaly, I'm an anomaly Being trapped in the ghetto, got us trapping now But I'm no popo and the suits, don't understand it how Living in a ghetto It's hard in the ghetto It's life in the ghetto Ghetto, ghetto, ghetto, ghetto Living in a ghetto It's hard in the ghetto It's life in the ghetto Ghetto, ghetto, ghetto, ghetto
