The Ghetto

(albüm: Ballin Ain't A Crime 2 - 2020)

(Da Realest)
Talking 'bout the ghetto (It doesn't hit unless my daddy on the hook, 3)
This motherfucking ghetto
Tryna survive
Tryna stay alive, yeah

The ghetto (Talking 'bout the ghetto)
The ghetto (The motherfucking ghetto)
The ghetto (Run off with mine)
The ghetto (And them killers gon' slide, yeah)

Even though we all came from nothing (The ghetto), tryna run up millions
Young boys seventeen in the crack house chilling
Sold dope with my niggas, had to make me a living
Had to get it out the mud and run it up to the ceiling
Food stamps fill the fridge in the hood where I lived
Had to cut the oven on just to heat up the crib
Sold crack to my kin, had no choice as a kid
Junkies begging for a rock, do anything for a hit
Young niggas taking hits, they too lazy to trap
Oldheads still hustling, buying eighthies of crack
Where I'm from, it ain't safe, you gotta stay with a strap
If you ain't down to kill something, better stay where you at

In the ghetto (Talking 'bout the ghetto)
The ghetto (This motherfucking ghetto)
The ghetto (Tryna survive)
The ghetto (Tryna stay alive, yeah)
The ghetto

Shooting dice on the corner with a sack on my nuts
Walking to the liquor store to go and buy me some blunts
Softest niggas catching bodies, it ain't 'bout being tough
Either kill or be killed, nigga, strap on your nuts
Raid vans hit the spot and took my uncle to jail
Can't be labeled as a rat 'cause you gon' die if you tell
Whole hood got indicted, it's like we living in hell
Gave my nigga natural life, I hope he get his appeal
Used to live with dope fiends, it was natural to me
I ain't never had shit, so I was happy to eat
Riding in the base rental with the strap on the seat
Every nigga in my hood sell crack just to eat

In the ghetto (Young niggas keep dying)
The ghetto (And these bitches still lying)
The ghetto (Got nowhere to sleep)
The ghetto (But got Gucci shoes on your feet)
The ghetto

Barbecuing in the summer, shooting hoops on the rim
Auntie shooting up the needle, uncles using the stem
Hit the road so much, I got used to them trips
Coming back with Rollies on in the newest of whips
Hand-to-hand transactions, tryna stack me a knot
I ain't paid off my license, but just bought me a watch
Neighborhood superstar selling crack out of spots
Fuck the titty bar up, then head back to the block
Buy brand new cars, rock brand new clothes
Buy brand new ice, fuck brand new hoes
Brand new white tee and some brand new lows
Just to chill in the hood while I sell my dope

In the ghetto (Talking 'bout the ghetto, talking 'bout the ghetto, yeah)
The ghetto (Talking 'bout the ghetto, this motherfucking ghetto)
The ghetto (Talking 'bout the ghetto, trying to survive)
The ghetto (Talking 'bout the ghetto, trying to stay alive, yeah)
The ghetto
