The Gospel by Alicia Keys

So we all got children, products of the ghetto
Momma cooked us soup, (1)__________ 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 husband was a crook
Cause every 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' life (4)________ (5)__________ Murphy and Martin
On the chain gang, I was singing into the coffin

The roaches and the rats, (6)____________ 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 revolving door, where brothers be doin' bids
I know it sound wrong but the door will be (7)________ it is
Survival of the fittest, (8)________ poor girl the illest
Broke (9)______________ and black (10)________ give me heebie-geebies
Life (11)__________ hard but nothin' ever comes easy
Whatever's in the dark, can (12)____________ (13)____________ the light
If you ain't in a battle, how you gon' win the fight?
Gotta speak the truth when I'm up in the booth
The streets be flyin' birds but (14)________ don't be on the roof
Poverty is a pain like you pullin' a tooth
Told the streets don't let me go (15)________ I'm (16)____________ in Juice

The (17)______________ and the rats, (18)____________ 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)
