[00:23.28] Ghetto, ghetto, ghetto, ghetto we livin'
[00:33.05] These streets remind me of quicksand
[00:37.55] When your on it you'll keep goin' down
[00:41.55] And there's no one to hold on too
[00:44.29] And there's no one to pull you out you keep on fallin'
[00:48.80] And no one can here you callin'
[00:51.03] So you end up self destructing
[00:53.29] On the corner with the tuli on the waist line
[00:57.29] Just got outta the bing doin' state time
[00:59.04] Teeth marks on my back from the K9
[01:00.79] Dark memories of when there was no sunshine
[01:03.79] 'Cause they said that I wouldn't make it
[01:06.55] I remember like yesterday
[01:08.05] Holdin' on to what God gave me
[01:11.54] 'Cause that's the life when your

[01:29.79] Or sleeping in the
[01:30.54] (Ghetto, ghetto, ghetto)
[01:35.04] No need to cherish luxuries 'cause everythin' come and go
[01:37.29] Even the life that you have is borrowed
[01:42.03] 'Cause your not promised tomorrow
[01:44.79] So live your life as if everyday's goin' be your last
[01:49.80] Once you move forward can't go back
[01:52.31] Best prepare to remove your past
[01:54.55] 'Cause ya gotta be willin' to pray
[01:56.29] Yes there gotta be there gotta be a better way
[02:00.79] Yes ya gotta be willing to pray
[02:02.04] 'Cause there gotta be there gotta be a better day
[02:05.29] Whoever said that the struggle would stop today
[02:08.04] A lot of niggas dead or locked away
