From the Ghetto

Don't wanna see us rising
Wanna see us fall
Rather see us locked up behind a jail wall
When ya coming from the ghetto
Life is hard
Don't wanna see us rising
Wanna see us fall
Rather see us locked up behind a jail wall
When ya coming from the ghetto
Life is hard

Back against the wall
Hands and feet tied
What do ya do when ya life on the line
Do I go back to the trap
Do I grab up the nines
Without an income how I'm suppose to survive
Every day in the studio writing rhymes
Tryna stay off the streets keep away from the crime
Caught a few cases did some jail time
And I never wanna put my momma thru that again
There ain't no love in these streets
Can't even trust the police
Life is hard ya better believe it
Ghetto youths hold ya head high

Don't wanna see us rising
Wanna see us fall
Rather see us locked up behind a jail wall
When ya coming from the ghetto
Life is hard
Don't wanna see us rising
Wanna see us fall
Rather see us locked up behind a jail wall
When ya coming from the ghetto
Life is hard

Options are low when ya come from the ghetto
But you never know what ya get till the dice roll
Keep chasing ya dreams
Keep chasing ya dreams
Don't let no one intervene
They wanna see me fall I keep rising up
They wanna see the end of Shotta Sho
Say they want you do good but never better then them
So watch out for the people tryna slow ya down
Free the homiez in jail that can't bailed out
I Never wish that jail shit for no one
Ya can't stop me just another lesson
Know who to trust and who to call ya brother

Don't wanna see us rising
Wanna see us fall
Rather see us locked up behind a jail wall
When ya coming from the ghetto
Life is hard
Don't wanna see us rising
Wanna see us fall
Rather see us locked up behind a jail wall
When ya coming from the ghetto
Life is hard

Ghetto youths don't give up
Keep going after your dreams
Ghetto youths don't give up
Stand tall and hold your head high
Ghetto youths don't give up
Keep going after your dreams
Ghetto youths don't give up
Stand tall and hold your head high

Don't wanna see us rising
Wanna see us fall
Rather see us locked up behind a jail wall
When ya coming from the ghetto
Life is hard
Don't wanna see us rising
Wanna see us fall
Rather see us locked up behind a jail wall
When ya coming from the ghetto
Life is hard
Don't wanna see us rising
Wanna see us fall
Rather see us locked up behind a jail wall
When ya coming from the ghetto
Life is hard
Don't wanna see us rising
Wanna see us fall
Rather see us locked up behind a jail wall
When ya coming from the ghetto
Life is hard
