lirik lagu akon - ghetto livin

[intro]
two brothers born in the struggle
drugs, violence, and hustling
freestyles on prison buses
making something outta nothing
even though they come from —

[verse 1: sheesh]
living in the ghetto, ghetto
they lock us up to keep us down, the feds know
she don’t make no money if her legs closed
don’t you know we come from queens and pharaohs

outta sight and outta mind
lil boy only 8 but he got a 9
don’t you ever think we chose poverty and crime
blueprint from the government, it’s all by design
running out of time
i ain’t got no patience
dawg, you either talking money or don’t say sh~t
bills due, gotta help my mama pay rent
daddy locked up, sh~t ain’t been the same since
judge gave him the book, he on page 10
yeah i’m free but i’m still feeling caged in
granny got us up in church yelling “amen”
i just prayed for a l!ck so we can make ends
[bridge: akon]
lord knows i tried, finna go slide right now
i ain’t got sh~t, so whatever they got, that’s mine
really wanna cry right now
but i’m too tough to let a tear drop from my eyes
she wear her smile upside down
but he don’t love her, he just love what’s between her thighs
know the block hot right now
but all the custos outside

[chorus: sheesh & akon]
so that’s why i’m cooking up dope in the (ghetto)
k!llers and hoe n~ggas (ghetto)
here come the 5~0 trippin’ (ghetto)
everybody po’ pimpin’ (ghetto we livin)
f~ck it, pour up more liquor (ghetto)
everybody broke in the (ghetto)
ain’t a lot of hope in the (ghetto)
hot summers, cold winters (ghetto we livin)

i might not make it out
i might not make it out
i pray that i make it out
i pray that i make it out

i might not make it out
i might not make it out
i pray that i make it out
i pray that i make it out
i might not make it out
i might not make it out
i pray that i make it out
i pray that i make it out

i might not make it out
i might not make it out
i pray that i make it out
i pray that i make it out

[verse 2: sheesh]
another day, new homicide
son dies, new mother cries
look her in the eyes
technically she still alive
they buried her too when he died
still in denial
she say it ain’t real
she won’t admit so she can’t heal
cop cold as ice, he don’t feel
yellin’ “freeze” but he won’t chill

but that’s every day when surviving the slums
call out for help, ain’t n0body gon’ come
seen what i saw, now the trauma is done
pills just to cope, started poppin’ ’em young
gotta do better
gotta unite because we in this together
we gotta fight, won’t be like this forever
i know i’m flawed, just like you, i ain’t special
[bridge: akon]
lord knows i tried, finna go slide right now
i ain’t got sh~t, so whatever they got, that’s mine
really wanna cry right now
but i’m too tough to let a tear drop from my eyes
she wear her smile upside down
but he don’t love her, he just love what’s between her thighs
know the block hot right now
but all the custos outside

[chorus: sheesh & akon]

i might not make it out
i might not make it out
i pray that i make it out
i pray that i make it out
