J-o-e

Recommended Posts

Hey Ya'll i thought i'd share this, What ya'll think?

And do you think i need a chorus in a song like this?

I'm not to sure

--------------In The Ghetto-------------------------

I remember my father teaching me something smart

"Boy don't take any ****, Or they'll stab you in the heart"

From that day I've decided that i belong in once place

Pac' said that the one who shoots you, remember his face

Because fate going to come round to him, Called karma

Blast at them fools now i'm not talking about palm

Tree's or them fools who got STD's, Keep it nice and simple

Explain what you mean to say and write it down with a pencil

I just don't mean to be so upfront in what i say

But ma, I still bow my head down every night and pray

See if i can ever get my family out of the ghetto

Forget the ho's who want to wear 5ft heel stelltho's

I'm from a place where there is no such thing as friends

Only ya homies who can turn there backs on u, In the endz

Funny because people thought I was a punk, Can i fight?

That's the question but you've got the wrong answer, aight?

Calm down because i'm not leaving. Try and force me out

Listen to these lyrics as you sit down to, I won't try and shout

I geuss its them haters theories that get so mythological

Calm down a second on this record and just get a bit logical

I want to know how my east side boys be living. Stay strong

Girls who want to shake that booty but cutie with that thong

K to the a to the n and o told us what we have to know

Gave me the courage to stand up and rap a whole show

I was a bit nervous but i was trapped in a shell, Homies in a cell

Life ****ed up especailly when pigs said that we living well

Are you ****ing crazy? look what your putting us through

We can't stop the beef if the otherside tried to bring in another crew

Gang wars? nah man don't take it as that serouis

Eyes are hazy just make sure you don't take anything thats delorouis

Because i can see that the politicians are already started to react

How can the terrorists have an act of war but we can say jack

They live on lies they don't know that i'm not init for all the fame

I'd do this game for free so Mr. Dash turn away that chain

I can't hack it it's making me go crazy. Dear lord please help me

Remembering the days of hennesy where we didnt have currency

Because i'm a ghetto kid like kanye west, Always but to the test

Ask me if i'm the best and you can see that there's smoke out my chest

I remember people don't even try and make music like i do

Calm down boy don't want you losing it like you

Don't suprise me if you going to get stabbed. Any second

DJ play this song and imma let you scratch the record

Understand on the news singing blues especailly on the radio

All the homies did was worry bout a peice of pussy from a ho

That's not the way i act, Not how i react. Get a gun jack a club

Get a girl give her some drugs and anything can act up

I'm staring into the world wondering about the mainstream

Looking at me like somethings on my mind. In a complete day dream

I wanted to know ages ago if this life was really perfect?

Killings and gang wars on streets. Is this beef all really worth it?

Listen to Jigga's Song cry i thought why did big n pac say goodbye

Even worse they got to Jam Master and then alyiah then lefteye

Dear lord please armour me with forgiveness. Do i ever deserve?

Gangsters keep smoking herbs. Hustlers and pimps on the curb

Living life on your stoop. Keep it real fo' sho' I'll give you respect

Do what you do and i promise homeboy it will never get too complex
