Precious Paris - L.I.T.G. (Living In The Ghetto) lyrics

rate me

(Hook: Dennis Brown - Concrete Castle King)

Living in a 2 by 4

Won't you give us a helping hand

You will understand we're suffering

You don't what life is like in the ghetto

(Verse)

This can't be right, nah, this can't be right

Deep in my eyes, winters of my soul

It's no surprise, you already know

My visions are clear, cristals, I ain't goin' nowhere

Told myself, bitch don't quit, it's the reason why you live

Write the king on my grave, niggas betta behave

Paris gettin' payed and I still ain't eat in days

Er'body can get it, but er'body can't keep it

So all I do is speak it in an existence that's my secret

My bitches is funny, think I'm allowed to take my money

I don't know my pops, but I just found out

That I'm half Hawaian honey

And this is typical, I want no receptacles

Learn the business through and through so I can see residuals

(Hook)

Living in a 2 by 4

Won't you give us a helping hand

You will understand we're suffering

You don't what life is like in the ghetto

(Verse)

This can't be life, nah, this can't be life

Nobody taught me, nobody fought me

Hot head, nigga fuck up once he lost me

Even if I'm still there, my mind is on tour

No surface just lost, steppin' out the back door

I'm outta here, hot like a rod in here

People said they'd be here but they're not, I ain't got time to care

Used to people leavin', it's nuttin'

Used to be bitchin' and hopin'

They not the side of this, stand up and make myself somethin'

This of ?, treat me how I allow you

Respect the gift that I lifted above the alley

Neva shookin' and shakin', always fightin' and racin'

Watchin' the hommies that I grew up facin' life

(Hook)

Living in a 2 by 4

Won't you give us a helping hand

You will understand we're suffering

You don't what life is like in the ghetto
