Ghetto

[Chorus: CeeLo Green] I'm in the ghetto Tryin grind up out it And the feeling got niggas, killing an dying about it And my only concern is will it be my turn today And maybe it just might but it's alright We still choppin' through the night so hold on tight I see the light and I just hope tomorrow ain't to far away Waiting for tomorrow [Verse 1: 2 Chainz] Watching ceiling fans go round an round Sweat from stress looks like rain on the ground When I exhale See the pain in the clouds Pretty much the same as a child the pain I mean Product of my environment was kane to me Product of my environment why you blaming me? You see, it ain't no change in me That being the dope boy was the thang to be And that's cliché but have your mama ever ask you [?] And she be like I pay ya in 3 days And the third day its a friday and you don't see her 'til like sunday And she sleep all day on monday U be like "Ma wheres my money?" And she be like "Boy don't bug me" We stay in this apartment Your dad ain't here I don't have a job yet If it ain't one thing it's about chump change My neighborhood sound like a motherfucking gun range [Chorus: CeeLo Green] I'm in the ghetto Tryin grind up out it And the feeling got niggas, killing an dying about it And my only concern is will it be my turn today And maybe it just might but it's alright We still choppin' through the night so hold on tight I see the light and I just hope tomorrow ain't to far away Waiting for tomorrow [Verse 2: Dolla Boy] Tomorrow was getting to me [?] The powers get to live Why so hard to live Look at the positions we in The streets ain't producing the meal Niggas that's gettin' it in A promise ain't willing to give That's how these domes get built That's how these jails get filled Then all we got is [?] [?] Father forgive us, we know not what we do And these days are trouble time and now I'm depending on is you 'Cus the pain I must get through To get the glory that is due Sell a [?] Porsche out my coupe Made a fortune out of snorting happens, that ain't nothing new Just sail out that double life [?] [?] Spread news, a poor man [?] The rich man [?] Whole click strapped up Like a movie script, lights, camera, action [Chorus: CeeLo Green] I'm in the ghetto Tryin grind up out it And the feeling got niggas, killing an dying about it And my only concern is will it be my turn today And maybe it just might but it's alright We still choppin' through the night so hold on tight I see the light and I just hope tomorrow ain't to far away Waiting for tomorrow [Verse 3: Sunni Patterson] Sky watching at the kerb-side Searching the city line Waitin' for the sun rise Wondering what paradise looks like Look like she have you [?] Have you [?] Have you any tools? Have you any shelter from the weather of these wolves? Watch how they do you Care not how they treat you Anything to make you think they love you So [?] even though devils trying to kill you I recall a brother saying he ain't scared to die More afraid to dream, so he ain't get no sleep Staying in the street, talking [?] [?] crying every night on repeat If only this was this easy as pressing delete, remove the sheets, erasing the chalk [?] Pick-pocket [?] Keep your eye on the horizon I promise sun shine in the morning like dark before dawn Before [?] become stronger Then you know tomorrow is how you live today how you walk [?] you say How you speak what you think, you know what I'm saying [Outro: Sunni Patterson] Sky watching at the kerb-side Just looking inside Hoping our time don't end before sunrise Searchin' and findin' Living and breathin' Looking and seein' Listenin' and hearin' All too clear Tomorrow is here (Is here, is here)
