Ghetto Mindstate (feat. Lyfe Jennings) (Main Version) (Radio Version)

Whooooooo

I just can't go

I just can't stay I just can't you just won't

I just can't get away

Ghetto mindstate

At 15 I was making moves

Drinking beer shooting dice at school

When most n***as had a 9 to 5 sh*t

On the block we making 9 to 5 grand

Each day yeah we got cheap yay

Holla

My n***as on lock they called me on 3 way

The hood hot like a crock pot

D**e fiends cutting yards for a 20 piece of crack rock

Around my way ain't nobody watching matlock

We trynna hot wire cars and break pad locks

Turn soft to hard drop it in glad locks

And drive flashy cars and get mad props

And still I won't change

Last week they caught my patna with a block of caine

And can't no amount of money stop the pain

They gave him 35 years his momma went insaine

Ghetto mindstate

Coming up with no father figure

I guess that made me a harder ni**a

Why

Cuz I don't like to ask for sh*t

When I came in the game with a half a brick

Yes

But I ain't telling lil' kids to go that route

But is on TV everyday like they don't know that route

And Lil girls being fast

Being grown trynna Flirt

Leaving home wearing pants

Then change in to a skirt

Huh

I live in the ghetto I stay in the ghetto

Yeah

Run up grown I'm spraying that metal

Cuz ain't sh*t sweet around my way

All I know is one thing how to get paid

Yeah

With Lyfe on the hook I know we got another hit

This motivational music

I know you feeling this

Ey

And I was raised in a church

But were I'm from you gotta do that work

Why everybody trynna bring me down

Because of me they respect H-town

Look I was here when yall wouldn't around

The first week you did a alright

But then that sh*t went down

Why everybody trynna bring me down

Because of me they respect H-town

Look I was here when yall wouldn't around

The first week you did a alright

But then that sh*t went down

They tell you you were born to die

Yo momma she was born to cry

Yo woman she was born to lie

Hold you down so you can't rely

I tell you that its all a lie

Young ni**a You just gotta try

Keep your eyes up on the sky

Don't let your dreams pass you by

Cuz somebody said
