Dangerous Ground movie - Ghetto Smile lyrics

rate me

Song by B-Legit f/ Daryl Hall<br /><br>

A young hog in the hood playin' chase<br>

Smile on his face<br>

Havin' fun 'cuz it ain't nothin' like this place<br>

And you don't wanna race<br>

Fool I got the new ones on<br>

And we can run from the corner to the Newman's home<br>

And after that we goin' go raid the plum tree<br>

And stick ball down where those bos be<br>

Mom's got the door open bumpin' Marvin Gaye<br>

Let's get it on all day everyday<br>

At night I pray<br>

Lord just let me make it<br>

And if I die before I wake then my soul you take it<br>

Never fake it<br>

My older brother taught me game<br>

And sometimes even let the young soldier hang<br>

As a loc<br>

My only duty was to soak<br>

And pass it on to my comrads and closest folks<br>

All friends I knew about it as a child<br>

I stood proud have you ever seen a ghetto smile?<br>

<br>

I'm at the junior high actin bad at the dance<br>

The slow jam got me with a woody in my pants<br>

And my baby with me<br>

Her Momma used to babysit me<br>

And back then she was just plain old pretty<br>

But nowadays it seems that she done grown<br>

Jeans fitting and her perm gotta hella long<br>

Would I be wrong if I whisper and take her down<br>

And maybe play housesitter with her like the Pound<br>

It's goin' down about now in the Northern Bay<br>

The OG's put it down and make they pay<br>

Flip a 6-8 'stang with the blew out braids<br>

The only homey in the hood ridin' on thangs<br>

And as I peep it thangs have got a little deeper<br>

And everybody and their Momma done bought a beeper<br>

And then they post on the lake gettin' loose and wild<br>

You know the scene it's the ghetto smile<br>

<br>

At 18 I graduated and now I'm grown<br>

About time for the dog to get his own bone<br>

I left home got a condo out on Quailridge<br>

And like a king is how this young playa live<br>

Swimmin' parties in the pool with my dope to roll<br>

Wasn't trippin' off nathin' we was all folks<br>

Hillside in the house and we gettin' perved<br>

Freestylin' gettin' on my neighbor's nerves<br>

I love the hood so everyday I'm back to visit<br>

And swoop the young so that they can come through and kick it<br>

And peep the game just as I did as a kid<br>

And watch the savage get his cabbage and place his bid<br>

And even though we fight we still remain game tight<br>

Handle business and always open for fogiveness<br>

It ain't nothin' like a homey you ain't seen in awhile<br>

So when you meet him greet him with that ghetto smile<br>

<br>
