So we all got children, of the ghetto
Momma cooked us soup, daddy did the yelling
Uncle was a drunk, was a felon
he got pitched, he them he wasn't tellin'
Auntie was a cook, her husband was a crook
Cause every job he had they be payin' him off the books
Ghetto university, is all it took
In a I was listenin' to the hook
Change gon' come, the spirit of Sam Cook
When the feds comin', get shook
Now we doin' life like Eddie Murphy and Martin
On the chain gang, I was singing into the coffin
The and the rats, heroin and the cracks
Couldn't blame me, I'm just 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)...
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 it sound but the door will be what it is
Survival of the fittest, poor girl the illest
Broke and black cats give me heebie-geebies
seems hard but nothin' ever 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?
Gotta the truth I'm up in the booth
The streets be flyin' but they don't be on the roof
is a pain like you pullin' a tooth
Told the don't let me go like I'm Bishop in Juice
The roaches and the rats, heroin and the cracks
Couldn't blame me, I'm just giving the facts
hit the top, the ain't it's at
Everybody got a past but you can never go back
Sing
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah (yeah)
