lirik lagu j. period - in the ghetto (wake up!)
[verse 1: black thought]
yo, if you’re coming here to keep you a gat close
ain’t a lot of tolerance for people that lactose
you can get your back broke, stumped out, choked
or slashed throat or poked in a cloud of black smoke
old heads tell you ’bout the trouble with black folk
c0ke heads tell you ’bout the difference in crack smoke
chicken heads doing the back stroke, lot of sleep n-ggas that act woke
people cashed in on their last hope, in the city of brotherly thuggery
st-tches in hospital recovery, they get at you suddenly

brothers be literally sh-t with snuffs on they hip
with a package out of their strip and dubs on their whip

[outro: john legend]
talk about the ghetto, ay ay, ay
the ghetto, dub, dub, du-dub dub
the ghetto, talk about the ghetto, n0body smiling
the ghetto, n0body smiling
talk about the ghetto, yeah
the ghetto, hey yeah, n0body smiling
talk about the ghetto, n0body smiling…
