Busta Rhymes - In The Ghetto lyrics

rate me

Y'know, my homey Treach from Naughty By Nature once said

If you ain't from the ghetto, don't COME to the fuckin ghetto

But I'ma let one of our most immaculate tour guides

take us ALL through the ghetto - my nigga Rick James!

When I was a young boy, growin up in the ghetto!

Hangin out on corners, singin with the fellas

Lookin for the cute chicks, tryin to find me big fun

Lookin for some trouble, or anyone who'll give me some

I was young and crazy! (In the ghetto)

Didn't know what my life would be (In the ghetto)

I was dumb and oh so lazy (In the ghetto)

Something had a spell on me (In the ghetto)

You all know what I'm talkin 'bout (Talkin 'bout ghetto life)

(Talkin 'bout ghetto life)

You all know what I'm singin 'bout (Talkin 'bout ghetto life)

Ghetto liiiiiiiiife (Talkin 'bout ghetto life)

(In the ghetto) Sure we be takin them chances

While we search for the answers we be smokin them cancer sticks

Police provokin muh'fuckers we dancin

And we be dodgin them bullets they be poppin off at us, shit

But yet we always romance the street

And fall in love with the hood 'til somebody come blast the heat

Always up to no good, so all of my fam could eat

See in the hood we hungry - hey nigga we playin for keeps

My soldiers on the block get on it

It be good if you flaunt it, we will take if we want it

See niggaz from the ghetto got a different state of mind

With a different kind of hustle and we iller with the grind

And develop our muscle 'til we sicker with the shine

In the struggle, thus our money come quicker doin crime

I see the way we rep the hood, gotta love me

You can take me out the ghetto, but you can't take it from me

Gotta love it

(Talkin 'bout ghetto life)

Ghetto liiiiiiiiife (Talkin 'bout ghetto life)

You all know what I'm singin 'bout (Talkin 'bout ghetto life)

Ghetto liiiiiiiiife (Talkin 'bout ghetto life)

(In the ghetto) That's where we get into that street shit

Hustle hard, try to get money quick (In the ghetto)

That's where I got my name from

I learned to get money and I got all my game from (In the ghetto)

That's where you eat with a bunch of the wolves

And get to hustlin as hard as you could (In the ghetto)

Until your cake stackin shit'll get good

Throw a block party for the whole hood (In the ghetto)

With them burnout cellys

Talk crazy, sell drugs in front of Pancho Deli

Crackhead chicks still smuggle babies in they belly

And them piss in elevators 'til the lobby all smelly (In the ghetto)

That's where I keep my ratchets

Get my instincts and survival tactics

Ain't nuttin like the hood nigga, I don't care

You survivin in the ghetto you can make it anywhere

Gotta love it

To my East coast niggaz - rep your ghetto

West coast niggaz - rep your ghetto

Midwest niggaz - rep your ghetto

Down South niggaz - rep your ghetto

To my East coast niggaz - rep your ghetto

West coast niggaz - rep your ghetto

Midwest niggaz - rep your ghetto

To my Dirty South niggaz - rep your ghetto

(In the ghetto) Even though they act rude

You'll always find a good chick to hold a brick for they dude

Behind the bullshit, me and my clique on the move

We honor the code of the street, and live by the rules (In the ghetto)

Is where, all of the hood's at

Find the most crooks and they sell the most drugs at

Where you find beautiful women and rugrats

And some of the most powerful people, I love that!

C'mon

(Talkin 'bout ghetto life)

You all know what I'm talkin 'bout (Talkin 'bout ghetto life)

(Talkin 'bout ghetto life)

You all know what I'm singin 'bout (Talkin 'bout ghetto life)

Ghetto liiiiiiiiife (Talkin 'bout ghetto life)

(In the ghetto)

"Never mind who you thought I was, I'm Rick James BITCH!"

"Cocaine is a hell of a drug"
