The Gospel by Alicia Keys

So we all got children, products of the ghetto
Momma cooked us soup, daddy did the yelling
Uncle was a drunk, (1)____________ was a felon
When he got pitched, he told them he wasn't tellin'
Auntie was a cook, her husband was a crook
Cause (2)__________ job he had (3)________ 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' (4)________ (5)________ (6)__________ 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 giving 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 (7)________ gon' live?
If we ain't gettin' money, how we feedin' the kids?
It's a (8)__________________ door, where brothers be doin' bids
I (9)________ it sound wrong but the door will be what it is
Survival of the fittest, this poor (10)________ the illest
Broke parents and (11)__________ cats give me heebie-geebies
Life seems (12)________ but nothin' ever (13)__________ easy
Whatever's in the dark, can (14)____________ become the light
If you ain't in a battle, how you gon' win the fight?
Gotta (15)__________ the (16)__________ when I'm up in the booth
The streets be flyin' birds but they don't be on the roof
Poverty is a pain (17)________ you pullin' a tooth
Told the streets don't let me go like I'm Bishop in Juice

The roaches and the rats, heroin and the cracks
Couldn't (18)__________ me, I'm just giving the facts
Tryna hit the top, the (19)____________ ain't (20)__________ it's at
Everybody got a past but you can never go back

Sing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (yeah)
