Mary had a little lamb
That's a fib she had two twins though
And one crib
Now she's only fourteen what a start
But this defect is ground common in these parts
Now life in this world can be such a bitch
And dreams are often torn and shattered and hard to stitch
Negative's the attitude that runs the show
When the stage is the g h e t t o
Dove
Which is the one to blame when bullets blow
Either peter
Jane
Or john or joe
But joe can't shoot a gun
He's always drunk
And peter's pimping jane
And john's a punk
Infested are the halls
Also the brains
Daddy's broken down from ghetto pains
Mommy's flying high
The truth is shown
The kids are all alone
'cause it's just the ghetto thang
It's just the ghetto thang word
Pos
Who ranks the baddest brother
The ones who rule
This title is sought by the coolest fool
Define coolest fool? easy
The one who needs
Attention in the largest span and loves to lead
Always found at the jams
But never dance
Just provoke violence due to one glance
The future plays no matter
Just the present flow
When the greeting place is the g-h-e-t-t-o
Dove
Lies are pointed strong into your skull
Deep within your brain against the wall
To hide or just erase the glowing note
Of how to use the ghetto as a scapegoat
Truth from trugoy's mouth is here to scar
Those who blame the g for all bizarre
So open up your vents and record well
for this is where we stand
for the true tell
Ghetto gained a ghetto name from ghetto ways
Now there could be some ghetto gangs and ghetto play
If ghetto thang can have its way in ghetto rage
Then there must be some ghetto love and ghetto change
Though confident they keep it kept
We know for fact
They lie like ghettos form
'cause people lack
To see that they must all get out the ghetto hold
The truth they never told
'cause it's just the ghetto thang
It's just the ghetto thang word
Pos
Do people really wish when they blow
Out the cake candles
And if so
Is it for the sunken truth which could arise
>from out the characters in which the ghetto hides
Roses in the ring supply their shown releif
Granted it's planted by their shown beleif
Kill and feed off your own brother man
Has quickly been adopted as the master plan
Posses of our people has yet to provoke
freedom or death to them
It's just a joke
What causes this defect
I don't know
Maybe it's the g-h-e-t-t-o
It's just the ghetto thang word
Standing in the rain is nothing felt
When problems hold more value
But never dealt with
Buildings crumbling to the ground
Impact noise is solid sound
But who's the one to say this life is wrong
When ghetto life is chosen strong
