Tru - Ghetto Thang lyrics

rate me

hit the block Lexus truck slangin ice cream

a million records sold , thats why yall know P

came up on hard times tryin to make ends

2 stones to my niggaz thats dead and in the pen

the ghetto wont change , they label me the dope man

I slang raps but the feds think its cocaine

tap my phone , these hoes wont leave me alone

nigga gon legit , so stay off the ding dong

independent , thats why they hate me

a million man ghetto march for Master P

so fuck rap pages ( dont know )

yall didnt want to see a nigga make it off the streets

thats why you'll never see P on MTV

top 40 , but niggaz yall know me

number 1 in every mom and pop and billboard record store

so fuck yall playa hatin hoes

gimme a pen , a pad , and ill make a hit

show every nigga in the ghetto how to get rich

cause yall dont know what go on behind closed doors

white folks pimp niggaz like hoes

but tru niggaz , say fuck that

you owe me money , its time to meet the chrome gat

I got the drank , finna tomorrow I take a piss test

and I know my probs. want me to go back

an ex-con addicted to gangsta rhymes

last year I caught a bullet but it wasnt mine

time to go nigga on dead row , or should I say im stuck in the ghetto

Chorus:

(2x) Just a ghetto thang , a ghetto thang , you would understand if you

was

from the ghetto man

(1x)its a ghetto thang , a ghetto thang , these niggaz got me caught up in

this ghetto thang

Silk:

see I aint got no money up in my pocket

how the fuck ima stop it

ima get the glock and cock and plug you like a socket

see game get deeper but yall dont feel me

telling me to gets up out the game , get a job

I shouldnt rob a nigga , I might kill yah

see up on the block I rides deep on gold thangs

these niggaz be trippin up on my shit and they'll jack you like it aint no

thang

see im from the city where niggaz be salty and they stay faulty like wires

and I aint seen a gangsta retire yet

on a bet , threw my cothes up on the floor and I sweat

trust nobody cause these niggaz today will smoke you like a cigarette

now bet , rest in peace to all homies that didnt make it

took life for granted , an I panic while seeing niggaz with ski masks

we blast with ski masks and bust a cap into they weak ass

everyday struggle and I stay hustlin like a pan handler

fuck it if I took a chance to get dead like cancer

I betta not chance it

slik , just another nigga tryin to make it up out the ghetto

(Chorus)

Big Ed:

got a hold on me , jealous fools wanna roll on me

will I die or will god just let me be

fufill the prophecy reach my destiny avoid the burial plot

unlive the ones that got popped

I got a son but she says that it isnt mine

Im 24 and since birth ive served hard time

in this concrete jungle , a war zone , many of my peers die

finally made it back home

self preservation is a thing for me

duckin and dodgin bullets stone faces on the ones who pulled it

I promise my mama I wouldnt die before she did

I got my life right got my wife and then my kids

but everywhere I look I see sadness

imagine tryin to raise your babies in this worldwide madness

(chorus) 6x
