Bobby Brown - Ghetto Child lyrics

[Intro: Bobby Brown] Yo, this is B Brown We gon lay ya back on this Benzino track, right Two times [Chorus 2x: Female] (Bobby Brown) Eye for an eye (Ghetto, ghetto) Strong will survive (Yeah, yeah) Everyday struggle to stay alive Look deep inside (My ghetto child) Bet cha wanna ride Ghetto child gon learn to fly (Ghetto child) [Bobby Brown] Now being born in the ghetto, it's hard, believe me Not just a job, anything ain't easy You go through rough times, you go through hard times And times even tougher than that But what I got is a mans best friend I know I'll fail staying in a house that your bed shield Brothers'll stick you up and in it they'll take pride Only bulletproof is if you don't need outside It's a living hell, you got to be the guy Cause if not, you get popped, ya be another victim of homicide Peer pressure pounds and if you ain't stressful You got to be live-full Black to feed the back Never second guess a professor Your not see-through, your not even equal But that's the price you pay being born in the ghetto [*in the ghetto* echoes] [Chorus 2x] [Mr. Gzus] Let me explain to you, un-hunh, some game is the truth Mainly I speak to the youth I used to hustle d** with a crew I was young and green and hungry, what's a n***a to do? We used to smoke weed on the roof and let the ions loose While shorty saw us off the ninety proof Lost to the streets Loved to rhyme so throw me a beat and flow would make the joint complete At the same time I gots ta eat Took a stands, stole a seat jumped in the game to compete Unaware of the heat, there's was def from cheek to cheek No sleep for two weeks stated all kinds of beef Been through hell and back before I was grown No pops to teach me to how spread my wings and fly, I did that on my own Made it this far and I'ma keep goin Y'all ain't knowin, I'm still here and keep growin, from a ghetto child [Chorus 2x] [Bobby Brown] It ain't nothing about hits It's about these grits Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto, the ghetto Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto, the ghetto Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto, the ghetto Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto, the ghetto Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto, the ghetto Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto, the ghetto Born in the ghetto, the ghetto, the ghetto Being born in the... Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto, the ghetto Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto Being born in the ghetto Being born in the ghetto, the ghetto, the ghetto Don't make it up, don't make it up [Chorus 2x]
