Ghetto Story

Boosie Badazz

This where I come from

This where I come from

Hate where I come from

See where I grew up it was hard

I seen some things I shouldn't've seen when I was little

This is my ghetto story

Drug dealers and the handguns

I'm lookin' outside the window

Mama cryin', the bills due, can't afford 'em

That's my ghetto story

Get out of line, we on the way

Bottom line, we get that cake, we gon' be straight

This my ghetto story

I told my potna fight that case

And hold it down, make sure you pray them kids straight

This my ghetto story

I guess I'm Ice Cube in this story, boys up in the hood

Brother different, mama trippin', blamin' me but it's all good

They shot at me but I bust 'em up bad dog, now they wish they would

Never had no understandin' but I can get it understood

Too many babies (Thug life)

Bullets chasin', I ain't even 21

Just seen a **** stretched over basketball, playin' 21

I cried at night

When Ivy died that Friday night

Them **** lied on me

We don't pray for shit 'round here, that's on Jesus

These the ghetto stories

Sofa sets and cracked porches, these was our dreams

Cut dogs, no Ferraris

Seen some shit I shouldn't've seen, where I'm from it's OG

Jolly Rancher days, hard to sleep, SSB

See where I grew up it was hard

I seen some things I shouldn't've seen when I was little

This is my ghetto story

Drug dealers and the handguns

I'm lookin' outside the window

Mama cryin', the bills due, can't afford 'em

That's my ghetto story

Get out of line, we on the way

Bottom line, we get that cake, we gon' be straight

This my ghetto story

I told my potna fight that case

And hold it down, make sure you pray them kids straight

This my ghetto story

Ain't that shit crazy how we livin'? Look at me now

Remember them times when we had nothin', I'm tryna make it out

I'm jammin' Boosie Boo, tryna see what this Uzi do

Get a lick in the bricks, don't get caught up, we lurk

Wanna know what this struggle do to you?

My goons are fools

Get it off on a late night, tryna make it in on a safe flight

And they keep tuggin' that crack pipe

She need a fix, I can tell when she itchin'

I hope she don't get it, she livin' a sad life

My uncle know better, walkin' with holes in his sweater

He be like, "Nephew, that's right" but that shit wrong

I'm thinkin' bigger when I'm in the zone, yeah bitch I'm a great one

Them days like Christmas, I can't lie, yeah bitch I miss 'em

Grandmama kitchen on Thanksgiving, my whole family actin' ignant

PO trippin', the system against me

They wanna send me to one of them prisons

But I ain't goin' 'cause I'm on a mission

I got a vision but you gotta listen, for real

See where I grew up it was hard

I seen some things I shouldn't've seen when I was little

This is my ghetto story

Drug dealers and the handguns

I'm lookin' outside the window

Mama cryin', the bills due, can't afford 'em

That's my ghetto story

Get out of line, we on the way

Bottom line, we get that cake, we gon' be straight

This my ghetto story

I told my potna fight that case

And hold it down, make sure you pray them kids straight

This my ghetto story

Cousin shot my cousin right in front me

On a pretty Monday

This my ghetto story

Family full of hustlers, players, felons, and fiends

Prayin' to God that he hurry

This my ghetto story

Had to watch my mama every morning

Attitude, 'cause the bills a' pourin'

I take care everybody in the hood, always did

Been known to get the business understood, since a kid

My ghetto story

I lost too many to count, ****, yeah
