Once you move forward can't go back
(Ghetto)
We livin' by the
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
(Ghetto)
Even the life that you have is borrowed
(Ghetto)
(Ghetto)
And eatin' in the
Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh
Teenage women growin' up with AID's
(Ghetto)
And there's no one to pull you out you keep on fallin'
Got kids to feed in the
And eatin' in the
Living in the
Teeth marks on my back from the K9
That's the life when your
And eatin' in the
Living in the
No need to cherish luxuries 'cause everythin' come and go
And there's no one to hold on too
'Cause there gotta be there gotta be a better day
'Cause that's the life when your
(Ghetto)
(Ghetto)
Yes ya gotta be willing to pray
(Ghetto)
(Ghetto)
(Ghetto)
Whoever said that the struggle would stop today
Livin' in the
'Cuz that's the life your
(Ghetto, ghetto)
On the corner with the tuli on the waist line
(Ghetto)
'Cause that's the life when your
Or sleeping in the
(Ghetto)
'Cause ya gotta be willin' to pray
'Cause your not promised tomorrow
Living in the
'Cuz that's the life when your
Everyday somebody bleedin' in the
Sellin' coke and weed in the
Crooked cops on sight in the
(Ghetto, ghetto, ghetto)
Or sleepin' in the
That's the life when your
And sleepin' by the
(Ghetto)
Just got outta the bing doin' state time
'Cause they said that I wouldn't make it I remember like yesterday
And no one can here you callin'
(Ghetto)
Gun shots every night in the
(Ghetto, ghetto)
(Ghetto)
When your on it you'll keep goin' down
Or sleepin' in the
(Ghetto)
Yes there gotta be there gotta be a better way
Everyday is a fight in the
(Ghetto, ghetto)
Livin' in the
Best prepare to remove your past
And eating in the
(Ghetto)
(Ghetto)
(Ghetto)
And eating in the
Holdin' on to what God gave me
Dark memories of when there was no sunshine
So live your life as if everyday's goin' be your last
Livin' in the
So you end up self destructing
(Ghetto, ghetto, ghetto)
(Ghetto)
Livin' in the
These streets remind me of quicksand
A lot of niggas dead or locked away
Or sleeping in the
