rate me

(feat. Akon & Alicia Keys)

[Intro: Alicia Keys (Baby Cham)]

Here's my, ghetto story (Story)

Been in hell through the fire, now, gonna take it higher (This a survival story, true ghetto story)

[Verse 1: Akon]

See I was born poor like many men and didn't have nothin

Came to America try to make somethin out of somethin

You see we Africans we love huntin

Found my way up to the top like it wasn't nothin

And hooked up with some Puerto Ricans up in Jersey

We used to be called the Baldwin posse

Had it locked we zoned it up to Union City

And a couple of projects in New York City

[Verse 2: Baby Cham]

I remember those days when Hell was my home

When Me and Mama bed was a big piece a foam

An mi never like bathe and my hair never comb

When Mama gone a work me go street go roam

I remember when Danny dem tek me snow cone

An mek him likkle bredda dem kick up Jerome

I remember when we visit dem wid pure big stone

An the boy Danny pop out something weh full chrome

[Verse 3: Akon]

But cats know better than to play around me

And knew I kept the AK displayed around me

And I moved down to the A to find more cheese

And I found out cars make more than we

[Verse 4: Baby Cham]

I remember when we run, Fatta get him knee blown

An mi best friend Richie get, two inna him dome

I remember so the avenue tun inna warzone

An ,Mickey madda fly him out, cau she get a loan

But, Mickey go to foreign and go tun Al Capone

Mek whole heap a money and sen in our own

Now a we a lock the city and, that is well known

Yesterday Mickey call me pan mi phone

Mi say Mickey...

[Chorus: Baby Cham {Akon}]

Wi get di ting dem

Dem outta luck now

Mi squeeze seven and the whole a dem a duck now

Wi have heap a extra clip cau we nuh bruk now

(This a survival story, True ghetto story)

Rah...Rah..Rah...Rah

[Alicia Keys (Baby Cham):]

We got the kingdom so we have to make way

We take it from the bottom to the top baby

And now the whole community can live greatly

(Rah...Rah..Rah...Rah)

[Verse 5: Alicia Keys (Baby Cham)]

I remember those days when, we was dead broke

And, I could barely find a, dollar for a token

Hop in the train just to get where I'm goin

Po Po's after me I'm runnin like I'm smokin

Remember those days when I went to bed hungry

All I ever ate was white rice and honey

Big dreams in my head empty my tummy

Might crack a smile but ain't nothin funny

I remember playin over needles in the street

Everywhere I go and there was some part of me

Thirteen thirteen was, hookers and hoes

On 11th avenue sellin bodies for dope (Whoa)

Remember cryin sayin that will never be me

Gonna make it someday gotta be somebody

Say, mommy don't worry it's just you and me

But, one day we will get out of this misery (Hey!)

[Chorus: Baby Cham]

We get di ting dem

Dem outta luck now

Mi squeeze seven and the whole a dem a duck now

We have heap a extra clip cau we nuh bruk now

Rah...Rah..Rah...Rah

[Alicia Keys (Baby Cham):]

We got the kingdom so we have to make way

We take it from the bottom to the top baby

And now the whole community can live greatly

(Rah...Rah..Rah...Rah)

[Verse 6: Baby Cham]

I remember bout '80, Jamaica explode

When a Trinity and Tony Hewitt dem a run road

That a long before Laing dem and even Bigga Ford

When Adams dem a Corporal nuh know the road code

I remember when we rob the chiney shop down the road

An rumour have it sey the chiney man have a sword

But we did have a one pop wey make outta board

So you know the next day mama pot Overlooaad

[Verse 7: Akon]

How could that be? Chop shops in the city call me the ring lead

Never thought I flee, some how the Po' Po' still caught up with me

But then I got locked up, then while I was boxed up

Focused on locked up, then they let me out but

Two years later my brother Screw got shot up

And got the whole block royal like now what

[Verse 8: Baby Cham]

Jamaica get screw, tru greed an glutton

Politics manipulate and press yutes button

But we rich now ,so dem caan tell man notin

Cuz a we a mek Mama a nyaam Fish an Mutton..Ehhhh

Ova dehso mek mi tell unnu some'in...

Tru mi dey a foreign now a guy kill me cousin

An mi here sey TD deh dey but him sey he wasnt

Anytime mi fly down him a get bout dozen...Cause...

[Chorus: Baby Cham]

We get di ting dem

Dem outta luck now

Mi squeeze seven and the whole a dem a duck now

We have heap a extra clip cau we nuh bruk now

Rah...Rah..Rah...Rah

[Alicia Keys (Baby Cham):]

We got the kingdom so we have to make way

We take it from the bottom to the top baby

And now the whole community can live greatly

(Rah...Rah..Rah...Rah)
