Lyrics : Ghetto
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
And that's the way that it is, when you coming from nothing
And you gotta tote a gun and die young where I'm from
He was only 15 when they took a kid life
And don't a day go by, I don't remember the night
Another black mom crying, wiping tears from her eyes
Wonder why so young her own son had to die
Why his dad ain't around? 'Cause he ain't give him no time
I can tell how he feel reminiscing 'bout mine
Another chance at life, it would only be right
But he made his first mistake and the judge gave him life
Another man from his family tryna earn for his son
Now his daddy ain't home, gotta grow up on his own
But it's the way of the world, and the way that it go
Will it get better? How I'm living I probably won't know
'Cause by then I'll be gone
Yeah I know right from wrong
But when you grow up in the ghetto
This the way that it go, so
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
Single mothers raise their children with no father at home
Young boys growing up with no guidance, all alone
Start going down the wrong road, ain't no turning back
'Cause when you jump off that porch, taken by God or be strapped
You do that gangster sh*t once, you in it for life
What goes around, comes around you'll be paying that price
From whatever it is, that's the way that it is
Take a risk with they lives not caring if they live
Putting down the books, just to load up guns
Hoop dreams out the window so they grow up to be thugs
A legend's what they wanna be, don't grow up to be much
Most the love ain't real so I'm showing no love
If you care about your life then keep your enemies close
'Cause if you don't next thing you know, you'll be considered a ghost
And no that sh*t ain't that easy, consider it smoke
You take a life, you lose a life, that's just the way that it go
In the ghetto
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
I'm from the sh*tty city, where n*ggas is born to die
And if you choose to gangbang then you're sworn to ride
See at a early age, n*ggas make you choose the sides
It's called survival and only the strong survive
See I can talk you through it, walk you through it, let you see
But I don't really know if you gon' see as G as me
These lifelong lessons, with the street sh*t
These ghetto politics, cuh that's some deep sh*t
One n*gga made it out, two n*ggas shot him down
Three mamas crying now, all of them lying down
These preachers praying now, and y'all still playing around
Twenty five in the game and I'm still staying down
With my ethic and my code which is ghetto
Which afforded me to win four medals
And settle down with my wife
Ghetto fabulous life
Yeah that's right
Double me up, I do it twice
Nice, that's how we do it my n*gga
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
And that's just how it is when you grow up in the ghetto
And that's the way that it is, when you coming from nothing
