Uh..
2
Hit 'em with a little ghetto gospel
3
[Chorus]
4
Those who wish to follow me (My ghetto gospel)
5
I welcome with my hands
6
And the red sun sinks
7
At last into the hills of gold
8
And peace to this young warrior
9
Without the sounds of guns
10
If I could recollect before my hood days
11
I'd sit and reminisce thinkin' of bliss of the good days
12
I stop and stare at the younger; my heart goes to 'em
13
AIDS tested, it was stress that they under
14
And nowadays things change
15
Everyone's ashamed of the youth, 'cause the truth look strange
16
And for me it's reversed, we left them a world that's cursed and it hurts
17
Cause any day they'll push the button
18
And all commend, like Malcolm X and Bobby Hut died for nothin'
19
Thought'll make you get teary, the world looks dreary
20
When you wipe your eyes, see it clearly
21
There's no need for you to fear me
22
If you take your time to hear me, maybe you can learn to cheer me
23
It ain't about black or white, 'cause we're human
24
I hope we see the light before it's ruined
25
My Ghetto Gospel
26
[Chorus]
27
Tell me do you see that old lady, ain't it sad?
28
Livin' outta bags, but she's glad for the little things she has
29
And over there there's a lady
30
Crack got her crazy, yet she's givin' birth to a baby
31
I don't trip or let it fade me
32
From outta the frying pan we jumpin' to another form of slavery
33
Even now I get discouraged
34
Wonder if they take it all back, will I still keep the courage?
35
I refuse to be a role model
36
I say go, stay in control, drink out my own bottles
37
I made mistakes but learned from every one
38
And when it's said and done
39
I bet this brother be a better one
40
If I upset you don't stress
41
Never forget, that God hasn't finished with me yet
42
I feel his hand on my brain
43
When I write rhymes I go blind and let the Lord do his thang
44
But am I less holy?
45
Cause I chose to puff a blunt and drink a beer with my homies
46
Before we find world peace
47
We gotta find peace and end the war in the streets
48
My Ghetto Gospel
49
[Chorus]
50
Lord can you hear me speak?
51
They pay the price for being hell bound
