I like a bird nigga with no wings I'm stuck in ghetto trying to have a little change My killing up each other 'cause we gotta eat And I ain't 'cause I'm running from the police
I done seen little in the projects starving I done seen hoes messing then Marvin See in the ghetto the sun it barely But so many niggas in jail and the welfare
And all my life I thought Bill ran the country I found out Bill Gates had all the money And the media starting east and coast wars I'm from the south, where they on us all
Come out of the powdered milk and eggs don't us up But why the government sold us drugs and to clean us up Gave us three halves and high interest loans dollar minimum wage and section eight, we call it home

And and all, it's cool when it started off Now niggas bullets like dodge balls Niggas got me scared to plant my seeds, fear of high's grow Living in a up time, a messed up court

The only way to avoid stress is to get By drinking but I but I can't get too high Cause I gotta keep my on my enemies I've seen harder times, but there gonna be some harder
Penitentiary close, but you what? Cemetery's ain't far away Before I die I'm trying to the whole world feel Like our people scared to there
The way we ourself, they think that we all some killers But look into the eyes of a child influenced by the street Go to sleep to gunshots, up from the sirens of the police See now my life ain't the same nigga, life as a thug
If I had to draw a of my life I have to paint my in blood homie died, before he die little cousin told me this Get you 'cause cemeteries Packed full of niggas who had dreams to be
So keep head up, to all my ghetto children it was hard To tell my family one day I was gonna grow up to millions When I told them, they to laugh at my so called dream I like to scream when I home from jail
When I was told best friend into a fiend I gonna lie, my conscience ain't clear, when I close my eyes Of course you gotta realize, God forgive me, I'm just trying to
cut welfare and health care, that shit gotta stop I got a positive note, my having a baby Congratulations, she on
