The Golden Ghetto

(album: The Golden Age - 2013)

[Verse 1:]
I'm tryina build a name for myself (for myself)
Out here on my grind, that's for sure (that's for sure)
Niggas salty when they giving hell (when they hell)
Makes me wanna walk my own road (walk my own road)
The same talk
The team work make the dream work (dream work)
But we can't trust none of these hoes (of these hoes)
But living in the city of the sin, hey
This is all a nigga know (know)

[Hook: x2]
I'm tryna be a man now (be a man now)
Dear Lord, what's my plans now? (what's my plans now?)
These fast money, keep on calling on a rebel
Get your ho and welcome to the golden ghetto
Tired of doing bad

[Verse 2:]
She tryna built a life for herself
Never thought that she be taking off her clothes
She in the ring, gotta get paid
So she work for all that she owns
Late night, early mornings
Baby, can I hit it in the morning?
She don't understand what I've been through
Between me and you, as a man
It's hard to deal with what you do, so

[Hook x2]

[Verse 3:]
They don't know I access, she put on that black dress
She told me it was trap season so I'm a bring this cash back
You can't teach her how to smile, she already got a child
Can't perceive what a man is cause her father was not around
She gonna go blend in on the strip, you can't tell that she own her shit
But these tourists come from out of town with a dream to spend money on a bitch
So many girls I know on to this, keep hoping, it's harder, you shook
She work hard for them looks, she's just another page, just a part of a book
But still, no

[Hook x2]
