Ghetto Lyrics

Akon

Ghetto, ghetto, ghetto, ghetto we livin'
These streets remind me of quicksand When your on it you'll keep goin' down And there's no one to hold on too And there's no one to pull you out you keep on fallin' And no one can here you callin' So you end up self destructing
On the corner with the tuli on the waist line Just got outta the bing doin' state time Teeth marks on my back from the K9 Dark memories of when there was no sunshine 'Cause they said that I wouldn't make it I remember like yesterday Holdin' on to what God gave me
'Cause that's the life when your Living in the (Ghetto) And eating in the (Ghetto) Or sleeping in the (Ghetto, ghetto) That's the life when your Living in the (Ghetto) And eating in the (Ghetto) Or sleeping in the (Ghetto, ghetto, ghetto)
No need to cherish luxuries 'cause everythin' come and go Even the life that you have is borrowed 'Cause your not promised tomorrow So live your life as if everyday's goin' be your last Once you move forward can't go back Best prepare to remove your past
'Cause ya gotta be willin' to pray Yes there gotta be there gotta be a better way Yes ya gotta be willing to pray 'Cause there gotta be there gotta be a better day Whoever said that the struggle would stop today A lot of niggas dead or locked away Teenage women growin' up with AID's
'Cause that's the life when your Living in the (Ghetto) And eatin' in the (Ghetto) Or sleepin' in the (Ghetto, ghetto) That's the life when your Livin' in the (Ghetto) And eatin' in the (Ghetto) Or sleepin' in the (Ghetto, ghetto, ghetto)
Gun shots every night in the (Ghetto) Crooked cops on sight in the (Ghetto) Everyday is a fight in the (Ghetto) Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (Ghetto) Got kids to feed in the (Ghetto) Sellin' coke and weed in the (Ghetto) Everyday somebody bleedin' in the (Ghetto) Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh (Ghetto)
'Cuz that's the life when your Livin' in the (Ghetto) We livin' by the (Ghetto) And eatin' in the (Ghetto, ghetto) 'Cuz that's the life your Livin' in the (Ghetto) And sleepin' by the (Ghetto) Livin' in the (Ghetto, ghetto, ghetto)
