The World Is a Ghetto

歌詞

What we see (what we see) Everyday (everyday) Livin' in the ghetto this is where I stay (What we do) what we do (To get by) to get by Live or die, I know the world is a ghetto Lets take a journey to the other side Where many people learn to live with their handicaps while the others die Where muthafuckas had no money spots And if they did then they ass went insane when all the money stops I'm from the ghetto so I'm used to that Look on your muthafuckin' map and find Texas and see where Houston at Its on the borderline of hard times And it's seldom that your hear niggas prayin' and givin' God time That's why I ask my mom to pray for me Because I know that even I got to die and he got a day for me And every morning I wake up I'm kinda glad to be alive 'Cause thousands of my homeboys died And very few died of old age In most cases the incidents covered up the whole page From Amsterdam to Amarillo It ain't no secret (Ain't no muthafuckin' secret), the world is a ghetto What we see (what we see) Everyday (everyday) Livin' in the ghetto this is where I stay (What we do) what we do (To get by) to get by Live or die, I know the world is a ghetto Five hundred niggas died in Guerilla warfare In a village in Africa, but didn't nobody care They just called up the goddamn grave digger And said come get these muthafuckin' niggas Just like they do in the 5th Ward In the South Park and the Bronx and the Watts You know they got crooked cops working for the system Makin' poor muthafuckas out of victims 'Cause don't nobody give a fuck about the poor It's double jeopardy if your Black or Latino They got their muthafuckin' drugs in the slums Got us killing one another over crumbs Think I'm lying? well muthafucka I got proof Name a section in your city where minorities grew And I'ma show you prostitutes, dope and hard times And a murder rate that never declines And little babies sittin' on the porch smellin' smelly Cryin' 'cause they ain't got no food in they bellies They call my neighborhood a jungle And me an animal, like they do the people in Rwanda Fools fleeing their countries to come here, Black But see the same bullshit and head right back They find out what others already know The world is a ghetto What's up outta towner? Southern nigga downer I wish you would bring your muthafuckin' ass around here With that hip shit from your block You fuck around and get shipped home to ya momma in a pine box 'Cause we don't play that shit in 5th Ward We got killas and hustlas and playas too, so nigga disregard What your seeing on them Western movies, 'cause yo! I ain't never rode a horse before, ho Think we slow? Smash the gas And watch how fast I'll put these hands on yo' bitch ass Try to load them dice, you'll meet the grave digger 'Cause game recognize game scheisty ass nigga See I done seen fools die for less Than a goddamn cigarette butt, for fuckin' wit my set So get that frown off your face busta 'Cause you ghetto ain't no harder than mine, muthafucka What we see (what we see) Everyday (everyday) Livin' in the ghetto this is where I stay (What we do) what we do (To get by) to get by Live or die, I know the world is a ghetto
