Ghetto Quartet

Rise from the slums yo I learned from, I used to look back as I ran from it
Now I'm sitting down and I'm at the summit ooooh
We want that long term not that fair weather, so it's a slow and steady ride

Came back with a brand new flavor savor this feast I keep da best for later
They want these treats they can eat these scraps
While I body fiends to release these tracks
But they don't feel it like that let's talk about the days where they road my back
Til I broke free now I'm spitting facts with morals intact from abuse

We don't talk about it don't you know you're black so disregard
I'm here to bridge these gaps
Spoken truth can't be taken back let's take it a bit farther
When the fear approached we used to hit the deck and lie flat
Now we pop back with these vicious melodies trapped in dark nights of the soul
Had to live to configure just where to go and now we on

I feel her presence in my soul it's that ancestral pain knocking
Yo them chains are unforgiving but I'm meant for higher living
So I stuck to my decision getting closer and I sense it but I'm far from the finish

They like stop, make it hot, drop it, make it better
Got da beat dripping lava with cheddar we want that long term not that fair weather
So it's a slow and steady ride and it's survival of the fittest
As I rise from the slums yo I learned from it, I used to look back as I ran from it
Now I'm sitting down and I'm at the summit ooh ooh

Descended from greatness with cosmic incentives so I fight with patience
To them fakes I'm like a menace first name Dennis
While they struggle to make the grade I'm perched off at the finish
This that light source Divine Spirit force, guiding me towards what I'm here for

Generated through them broken doors
Thoughts making waves so I surf'm to them higher days
Transmuting family dynamics I stand up and be my own person
Subscribed to love now this life is a vibe as I rise from them lies
Grams always knew that I would survive yeah it's me

Oceans brushing the shores of the beach I let this love run across my feet
Like damn huh damn this was made for me

They like stop, make it hot, drop it, make it better
Got da beat dripping lava with cheddar we want that long term not that fair weather
So it's a slow and steady ride and it's survival of the fittest
As I rise from the slums yo I learned from it, I used to look back as I ran from it
Now I'm sitting down and I'm at the summit ooh ooh

I had the courage to be disliked I walk da path that chose me
So give me the mic we master MC's in tandem with these gem producers
HipHop fiends that blend life with these comic book dreams
This that Ghetto Quartet and we don't settle for less

So come correct or catch wreck with the best sublime lyricist
On some Fuhrer shit but with purest intentions so pay'm no attention
Haah oh did I mention the name is RahZhi Phi
