The Gospel by Alicia Keys

So we all got children, products of the ghetto
Momma (1)____________ us soup, daddy did the yelling
Uncle was a drunk, cousin was a felon
When he got pitched, he (2)________ them he wasn't tellin'
Auntie was a cook, her (3)______________ was a crook
Cause (4)__________ job he had (5)________ be payin' him off the books
Ghetto university, knowledge is all it took
In a tenement I was listenin' to the hook
Change gon' come, the spirit of Sam Cook
When the feds comin', everybody get shook
Now we doin' life (6)________ (7)__________ Murphy and Martin
On the chain gang, I was singing into the coffin

The roaches and the rats, heroin and the cracks
Couldn't blame me, I'm just (8)____________ the facts
Tryna hit the top, the bottom ain't where it's at
Everybody got a past but you can never go back

Sing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (yeah)...

Tellin' you like it is, how we ever gon' live?
If we ain't gettin' money, how we feedin' the kids?
It's a revolving door, where brothers be doin' bids
I know it sound (9)__________ but the (10)________ will be (11)________ it is
Survival of the fittest, this poor (12)________ the illest
Broke parents and black cats give me heebie-geebies
Life seems hard but nothin' (13)________ comes easy
Whatever's in the dark, can always become the light
If you ain't in a battle, how you gon' win the fight?
Gotta (14)__________ the (15)__________ when I'm up in the booth
The streets be flyin' (16)__________ but they don't be on the roof
Poverty is a pain like you pullin' a tooth
Told the streets don't let me go like I'm (17)____________ in Juice

The (18)______________ and the rats, heroin and the cracks
Couldn't blame me, I'm just (19)____________ the facts
Tryna hit the top, the bottom ain't where it's at
Everybody got a past but you can never go back

Sing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (yeah)
