[Fredro Starr] 

A lot of things have changed since I grown up 

Half my brothers got locked, half got blown UP! 

From playin "two hand touch" and the games in the street 

But the games ain't the same, now we playin with heat 

SEE THERE'S DANGER, in my buildin, they rollin dice there 

Ain't nuttin nice there, who dare with ice-stare?! 

My hallway is like Rahway, to the thugs in the doorway 

Peace, kid I'm out, NO DOUBT! 

We just hangin on the corner, puffin trees just 

tryin to stay warm, sippin? Easy? Jesus! 

Problems after problem, it keeps revolvin 

They got us starvin, that's why we out robbin (knahmsayin?) 

There's days I can't remember like the 6th of December 

I think it was September nah, maybe it was November (what?!) 

This kid got rocked, just for steppin on some sneakers 

Heard from Tamika, he's gettin buried in a speaker 

cause his mom's was on that *inhaling*, gettin laced 

She not SMOKIN IT! She took one bad hit

Chorus: repeat 2X 

Aiyyo (YO!) can't escape the ghetto 

Hell no, it's everywhere you go! 

Aiyyo (YO!) can't escape the ghetto 

Hell no, it's everywhere you go! 

[Sonsee] 

I'm not your role model, I'll drink the whole bottle 

Don't follow, nobody cause you never know tomorrow 

Just look around, EVERYWHERE, it's despair 

It ain't no care here, and good times is rare 

or seldom last long, they always fadin 

when my fam is dyin over money and gettin incarcerated (yeah) 

Just to be a statistic, it's sadistic 

Too realistic, we goin this QUICK! 

The other night kids got bad (Word, T-N-T ran out?) 

Got them kids Bill and Ted, they called the law news spread 

Last week they was blazin on the corner, bullets ricochet 

Hit somebody's baby, and they kid may be dead 

Resultin from the ill {shit}, to say the least 

Livin in the ghetto... rest in peace! 

[Onyx] 

Yo. HEY! 

cause where I'm from, the good die young 

The sky is grey, we never see the sun 

The ghetto life, is live and let live 

on the day to day. 

[Sticky Fingaz] 

It all began when Shorty Rock took the law in his own hand 

Sick of seein his moms gettin beat up by his old man 

So he did what any kid woulda done 

Went into the closet, got his pop's gun 

Who need enemy when you got family? 

It's hard to get a job when you look like me (WORD UP!) 

See people don't just rob cause they on unemployment 

Some do it for the pure satisfaction enjoyment 

Brrrr, it's cold, this world is freezin 

Folks gettin murdered over no apparent reason (NO!) 

Packin they bags, talkin bout they leavin 

But where you gonna go? You can't escape THE GHETTO! 

You see more when you HIGH, even less when you LOW 

You can't run from your own shadow 

Chorus 

{*scratches "my little man, shorty doo wop"*} 

[Onyx] In every ghetto, we packin heavy metal (repeat 4X) 

{*ad libs and "Official Nast'!" to fade*}
