The Ghetto Lyrics - Told You So - Sparkle

(Intro) 

Can I talk about the ghetto? 

That's where I'm from 

Listen up, whoa 

Just ridin' through the neighborhood 

What I see don't look too good 

All my brothers hustlin' 

All my sisters strugglin' 

Just to make it through another day 

Just another day 

That's just the way it is 

(Just the way it is) 

When you're living

(Living in the ghetto) 

Trying to make it seems so hard 

(Living in the ghetto) 

Unemployment, don't even have no jobs 

(Living in the ghetto) Whoa 

(I grew up in the ghetto) 

In the ghetto, ghetto whoa 

Still got so many memories (Memories) 

Growing up with my family (Oh family) 

Still westside 'till I die (Throw it up) 

And even though I'm living in a highrise 

It's not where you are but it's where you're from 

Daddy told me long ago 

That's why I'll never forget my days 

(Never forget my days, no) 

(Living in the ghetto) 

People don't got no where to go 

(Living in the ghetto) 

Pimps and hustlers everybody knows 

(Living in the ghetto) Whoa 

(I grew up in the ghetto) 

In the ghetto, in the ghetto 

Play on, play on 

My, my, my, my, my, my, my 

Somebody tell me why 

It has to be this way 

Oh why? 

Don't give up, no, no 

Listen 

This is for my queens 

Keep your hopes high 

Stay down on your knees 

Praying every night 

There'll be days like these 

Mama used to say 

Ain't no need to worry 

He's gonna make a way 

And this is for my kings 

Don't forget respect 

Gotta keep moving on 

Cause it ain't over yet 

Keep your head about it 

Keep your head about it 

'Bout it, 'bout it, 'bout it 

While you're living 

(Living in the ghetto) 

See I'll never forget where I'm from, no, no 

(Living in the ghetto) 

And how far I've come, see I've come too far 

(Living in the ghetto) 

In the ghetto, who 

(I grew up in the ghetto) 

In the ghetto, the ghetto 

(Living in the ghetto) 

So many kids out in the streets 

(Living in the ghetto) 

2 o'clock in the morning when they need to be at home asleep 

(Living in the ghetto) 

In the ghetto, in the ghetto
