Chorus (flaj)What we see [what we see] everyday [everyday]Livin in the ghetto this is where I stay[what we do] what we do [to get by] to get byLive or die, the world is a ghetto(scarface)Lets take a journey to the other sideWhere many people learn to live with their handicapsWhile others dieWhere mutha*****as had no money spotsAnd if they did then they ass went insaneWhen all the money stopsIm from the ghetto so Im used to thatLook on your mutha*****in map and find texasAnd see where houston atIts on the borderline of hard timesAnd its seldom that your hear niggas breakin and givin God timeThats why your ass (? ? ? ? ) and pray for meBecause I know that even I got to dieAnd he got a day for meAnd every morning I wake up Im kinda glad to be aliveCause thousands of my homeboys diedAnd very few died of old ageIn most cases the incident covered up the whole pageFrom amsterdam to amarilloIt aint no secretThe world is a ghettoChorus (flaj)(bushwick bill)Five hundred niggas died in guerilla warfareIn a village in africa, but didnt nobody careThey just called up the goddamn gravediggaAnd said come get these mutha*****in niggasJust like they do in the 5th wardIn the south park and the bronx and the wattsYou know they got crooked copsWorking for the systemMakin po mutha*****as out of victimsDont nobody give a ***** about the poIts double jeopardy if your black or latinoThey got mutha*****in drugs in the slumsGot us killing one another over crumbsThink Im lying? well mutha*****a I got proofName a section in your city where minorities groupAnd ima show you prostitutes, dope and hard timesAnd a murder rate that never declinesAnd little babies sittin on the porch smellin smellyCryin cause they aint got no food in they belliesThey call my neighbourhood a jungleAnd me an animal, like they do the people in rawandaFools fleeing their countries to come here blackBut see the same bullshit and head right backThey find out what others already knowThe world is a ghetto(willie d)Whats up outta towner? southern nigga downerI wish you would bring your mutha*****in ass around hereWith that hip shit shit from your blockYou ***** around and get shipped back home to ya momma in a pine boxCause we dont play that shit in 5th wardWe got killas and hustlas and playas to so nigga disregardWhat your seeing on them western moviesCause yo!
