So we all got children, products of the ghetto
Momma cooked us soup, did the yelling
was a drunk, was a felon
he got pitched, he told them he wasn't tellin'
Auntie was a cook, her was a crook
every job he had they be payin' him off the books
Ghetto university, knowledge is all it took
In a tenement I was listenin' to the hook
gon' come, the spirit of Sam Cook
the feds comin', get shook
Now we doin' life Eddie and Martin
On the gang, I was into the coffin
The 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 ever gon' live?
If we ain't gettin' money, how we feedin' the kids?
It's a door, where brothers be doin' bids
I know it sound wrong but the will be what it is
Survival of the fittest, this poor girl the illest
Broke parents and black me heebie-geebies
Life seems hard but nothin' 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?
speak the truth when I'm up in the booth
The streets be flyin' birds but they don't be on the roof
Poverty is a like you pullin' a tooth
the don't let me go I'm Bishop in Juice
The roaches and the rats, heroin and the cracks
Couldn't blame me, I'm giving the facts
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)
