Ghetto Life

[Intro: Master P]

Wazzup Steady Mobb'n and Snoop?

I know you all grew up in the ghetto in the westcoast

I'm from down south

But it don't matter whether you from the eastcoast or where ever

Cause the ghetto is a constant struggle

It's all about the mo' money you make

The mo' problems you have

I guess the ghetto is just consequences that we can't exscape

You heard me?

[Crooked Eye]

So many murders jumpin off Blood soakin the street

So many children worldwide With nothin to eat

There's no peace On these trigger happy police

It's hard enough bein born black

These times are brief Three strikes (Your out!)

Your little homie lost his life Do a lot of things wrong

To feed his baby at night I wish I could

Put a lil', love in the hood

Once again, and free all my doggs from the pen

Mercy me, this world ain't what it use to be

It seems the whole world's smoked out High off D

See my brother, murdered his own grandmother

Now that's sick, all for the love of a hit

No protection, people, dyin of age

The Lord said it would be like this in the last of days

Kidnappin babies

It ain't, safe for our kids Man it's such a wicked place

In which we live

[Chorus: Crooked Eye & Marvin Gaye]

It's a struggle in the city to survive on the streets

(Oooooooooooooooooooooooh)

(Mercy, mercy, mercy me)

The world is a ghetto full of worn out peace

(These streets ain't what they used tooo be)

So many soldiers dyin everyday to earn a strive

(These streets ain't what they used to beehee)

I'm tired of losin homies to this ghetto life

I'm tired of losin homies to this ghetto life

[Snoop Dogg]

This is somthin for the white, the black, and the brown

From D-P to Oak-Town And back down As the world go round

Another war go down Behind my smile there's a frown

I'm a king wit no crown Still I put it down

Acts all my tiny locs That's on Dogg Pound (Dogg Pound)

Now all my kin folks

Sometimes we have to pause, and reminisce

And get blitzed And wish for potato chips

And Dip slips, curves, and knuckle balls

I wanna safe em' all And buck em' all

But I can't Cause I'm on a tank now

Think now Stop, pause dogg

Put your drink down I need your attention, undivided

Cause know a days Only the strong survive

Everything else Is fallin to the left of me

With all this jealousy and greed Dear God, have mercy

[Chorus]

[Billy Bavgate]

Lord have mercy on me Cause I wanna be a angel and fly

Tell me who's gonna save the world

When it's destined to die So much hatred and anxiety

A patriot of God Bein attacked by the anti-christ

Young brotha better change your life Cause you runnin outta time

I wish that I could help But it's too much crime

These fools can't read the signs I remember all my good times

I call help for my bad times

Infatuated by the by the street crime

If I could change the time

Tell me why, why people gotta die

I finally cried When my mama died

It's a scary world I had to bury a beautiful girl

It's gettin' hectic in this cold world

But I'm still tryin to slow down

But only thugs, I hang around

So it's hard now Lord have mercy

[Chorus]
