[WC - Streets A Cappella Mix lyrics]

Featuring Ron Banks (from The Dramatics)

Nineteen-ninety-eight, damn I can't
Believe it
Whoever thought, throughout the drama
We'd live to see it
So many of us done lost lives to the streets
As we reminisce I'm pourin
Liquor for the deceased
Thinkin bout the times that I
Spent with many of em
Hopin that the Lord let me see the millenium
Trapped in this ghetto main
Seekin better days
Fightin for my conscience
Tryin to shake these wicked ways
I know it's wrong but it's hard to change
All my life
All I ever knew was hustle and game
Lookin for answers ever since
I was a adolescent
Faced with rejection, early age stressin
But now ten years later with doodoo respect
I'm bustin million dollar raps
And six digit checks
Showin love to my peeps and
My love don't change
Here's a toast to you fakes, huh
Here's to better days

Might sound strange
But I just can't run away
I can't run, run, it might sound strange
But I just can't run away
I can't run, no, run away

Touch a meal ticket, shake a spot for good
Never, I still got love for the neighborhood
And even though now it's
Infested with gunplay
On most days like Bootsy I can't stay away
Cause if I shook like y'all shook on me
Then whose gon' stay and guide the
Way for the lil homies?
I can't turn my head on my folks
So I stay visible in these streets
And try to give hope
Born in the ghetto, raised in the ghetto
Got love for the ghetto
I can't forget the ghetto
How come everytime we get some
Change in our can
We run away and try to move
Out as far as we can?
I know that jealousy's the devil's
Greed but you worse
Than a de
