Ghetto
Ghetto, ghetto
Ghetto created me
From infant to adult
Ghetto my home
I'm old now, i see the truth
Ghetto, Ghetto
I know who you truly are!
And i know who you working for,
I'm exposing you!
Ghetto full of obstacles from drugs to disease
and people living in fear
Ghetto a monster,
Eating us alive cause we too afraid to fight,
Ghetto a bully
Taking our launch money,
Why don't you pick on someone your own size?....
like the suburb,
Why Ghetto?
Huh! Why?....We have nothing,
Ghetto a prison
Let me out, i beg of you,
I'm Sentenced for life.
Ghetto, Ghetto
You go by many names,
From the hood to native lands
You mad cause I'm exposing you,
Ghetto a serial killer
Look how many lives you have murdered
Ghetto a maze and you will never find a way out,
just going in circles all around,
Ghetto a liar, deceived us and made us fight with one another,
Ghetto a weapon of mass destruction
From gangsterizm to no sanitation,
Babies on the streets fed poison,
Ghetto evil, ruining the youth
Ghetto why are you so cruel?
Ghetto i know who you working for
I know who manipulates you,
Ghetto I'm a warrior but i won't fight my people,
I see through that illusion,
Ghetto I'm going to defeat you!
I'll be a hero,
Not the idolized version
Like the ones you working for,
Who gave us false ideas
Who left us to die,
Ghetto you hell, look at what you have done to the people,
They soulless, no spirit to fight
No hope just gazing at death like they hope to die,
partying like its their last time
Ghetto! ghetto!
How you corner the teens than you take their life away
Ghetto you go to go!
I stand for the new generation
I'll break through the barriers
Cause I'm a ghetto warrior.
