[Fredro Starr]
11
A lot of things have changed since I grown up
12
Half my brothers got locked, half got blown UP!
13
From playin "two hand touch" and the games in the street
14
But the games ain't the same, now we playin with heat
15
SEE THERE'S DANGER, in my buildin, they rollin dice there
16
Ain't nuttin nice there, who dare with ice-stare?!
17
My hallway is like Rahway, to the thugs in the doorway
18
Peace, kid I'm out, NO DOUBT!
19
We just hangin on the corner, puffin trees just
20
tryin to stay warm, sippin ?Easy? Jesus!
21
Problems after problem, it keeps revolvin
22
They got us starvin, that's why we out robbin (knahmsayin?)
23
There's days I can't remember like the 6th of December
24
I think it was September nah, maybe it was November (what?!)
25
This kid got rocked, just for steppin on some sneakers
26
Heard from Tamika, he's gettin buried in a speaker
27
cause his mom's was on that *inhaling*, gettin laced
28
She not SMOKIN IT! She took one bad hit
29
Chorus: repeat 2X

Aiyyo (YO!) can't escape the ghetto

Aiyyo (YO!) can't escape the ghetto

Hell no, it's everywhere you go!
34
[Sonsee]
35
I'm not your role model, I'll drink the whole bottle
36
Don't follow, nobody cause you never know tomorrow
37
Just look around, EVERYWHERE, it's despair
38
It ain't no care here, and good times is rare
39
or seldom last long, they always fadin
40
when my fam is dyin over money and gettin incarcerated (yeah)
41
Just to be a statistic, it's sadistic
42
Too realistic, we goin this QUICK!
43
The other night kids got bad (Word, T-N-T ran out?)
44
Got them kids Bill and Ted, they called the law news spread
45
Last week they was blazin on the corner, bullets ricochet
46
Hit somebody's baby, and they kid may be dead
47
Resultin from the ill {shit}, to say the least
48
Livin in the ghetto... rest in peace!
49
[Onyx]
50
Yo.. HEY!
51
cause where I'm from, the good die young
52
The sky is grey, we never see the sun
53
The ghetto life, is live and let live
54
on the day to day..
55
[Sticky Fingaz]
56
It all began when Shorty Rock took the law in his own hand
57
Sick of seein his moms gettin beat up by his old man
58
So he did what any kid woulda done
59
Went into the closet, got his pop's gun
60
Who need enemy when you got family?
61
It's hard to get a job when you look like me (WORD UP!)
62
See people don't just rob cause they on unemployment
63
Some do it for the pure satisfaction enjoyment
64
Brrrr, it's cold, this world is freezin
65
Folks gettin murdered over no apparent reason (NO!)
66
Packin they bags, talkin bout they leavin
67
But where you gonna go? You can't escape THE GHETTO!
68
You see more when you HIGH, even less when you LOW
69
You can't run from your own shadow
70
Chorus
71
{*scratches "my little man, shorty doo wop"*}
72
[Onyx] In every ghetto, we packin heavy metal (repeat 4X)
73
{*ad libs and "Official Nast'!" to fade*}
