Baby Gas, E-40 - Life In the Ghetto lyrics
[Baby Gas, E-40 - Life In the Ghetto lyrics]
That's life in the ghetto
Everybody rob for a feat
Fiends keep their eye on the streets
Every day another homicide in the streets
That's life in the ghetto
You learn to survive in the streets
Or get ate alive in the streets
If your poor
It's mandatory overtime in the streets
That's life in the ghetto
They say life out here is
What a nigga make it
I guess everybody story little
Different ain't it?
If you ask about my own‚ I never hesitated
Had a vision with a bag‚ real picture painted
Grew up on the block with a cold dream
At the spot‚ gettin' drops by the dope fiends
Was the youngest little vato that your seen
Mama we'll make it out
At night we're back to the old scheme
Quickly I'll take it back to the old me
I'll never settle
You survive in my streets‚ make
It in any ghetto
Die in this war, no twenty-one guns
No gold medal
Choppa for the fake love‚ shells
Drop like rose petals
No one can ever rewind this life back
Though we paid dues and
Unfortunately couldn't price that
It ain't got a price tag
Every day I spend on it never knew the cost
Just knew I had my hands on it
That's life in the ghetto
Everybody rob for a feat
Fiends keep their eye on the streets
Every day another homicide in the streets
That's life in the ghetto
You learn to survive in the streets
Or get ate alive in the streets
If your poor
It's mandatory overtime in the streets
That's life in the ghetto
Bullet shells and white chalk
Shhh, if you see it don't talk
Turn a blind eye and a deaf ear
Certain things are forbidden, listen here
Poverty and chaos
Dudes that come with their best
Shooters like the playoffs
Get their mans, fuck how much it costs
If they want him outta here
They can get him offed beastie
Obesestity asthma inhaler
Heart failure they say that meat builds up
Mucous in our intestines
Might start eatin' plant based
Get rid of intergestion
The Bible speaks of jealousy
A lot of times the jealousy
Be comin' from your family
Bruh, you ain't even got to
Have a paper penny
They could have hella bread
And still have envy
Hood rich one day (Hood rich one day)
The next day you broke
(The next day you broke)
You could have a fist fight with your friend
(Fist fight with your friend)
And the next day, y'all folks (Uhhh)
That's life in the ghetto
Everybody rob for a feat
Fiends keep their eye on the streets
Every day another homicide in the street
That's life in the ghetto
You learn to survive in the streets
Or get ate alive in the streets
If your poor
It's mandatory overtime in the streets
That's life in the ghetto, ghetto, ghetto
Everybody rob for a feat
Fiends keep their eye on the streets
Every day another homicide in the streets
That's life in the ghetto
You learn to survive in the streets
Or get ate alive in the streets
If your poor
It's mandatory overtime in the streets
That's life in the ghetto
They say life out here is
What a nigga make it
I guess everybody story little
Different ain't it?
