Ghetto
Lyricist:Nahum Thorton Grymes, Donnie Scantz, Sam Thomas
New day, same thing, we got people in the streets But the government ain't doin' a damn thing And all we invest in is hydro and liquor stores SS 4 doors and 24's Where I'm from that's what we live for, the ghetto so
If you're livin' in the ghetto and you're feelin' me Let me hear you say oh, oh, oh, oh And if you're gettin' sick and tired of the same thing It's alright to say oh, oh, oh, oh
'Cause you know the po-po's, the projects and the old folk That's what we see 24 in the ghetto Corner spots, crack rocks and gun shots
Good times and bad times The same place with the same rhymes You need to stop waitin' round for the punch line 'Cause ain't nothin' changed but the time
Ain't nothin' changed, same place same thing Just a different day in the ghetto I know 'cause I've been there On the same block in the same gear Drinkin', smokin', wishin', hopin'
And if you're gettin' sick and tired of the same thing It's alright to say oh, oh, oh, oh Find more lyrics at ※ Mojim.com If you're livin' in the ghetto and you're feelin' me Let me hear you say oh, oh, oh, oh
Now what you know about the block after dark in the park The holes in your shoes makin' holes in your socks Roaches in the kitchen, with no food for your pots Or your hands on your head, gettin' pressed by the cops
What you know about the hood when it's good when it ain't? Sittin' on the stoop witcha weed and your drink With the old winos askin' if you got change But if you ask me ain't shit changed
I done seen plenty of cats get they ass knocked out If you come 'round here better not run your mouth I ain't never been a thug but I still get down Shots to [Incomprehensible], shots to Uptown
What you know about rent when it can't get paid? You can't get a Coupe so you get a Chevrolet And your momma on her knees, all she can do is pray But where I'm from this is life, same shit, different day
If you're livin' in the ghetto and you're feelin' me Let me hear you say oh, oh, oh, oh And if you're gettin' sick and tired of the same thing It's alright to say oh oh, oh, oh
