Lyrics
Chorus:
I need your love... this is for the ghetto
im here to show...coz ya need to know
that up in the streets... theres 2 sides of ghetto
(X2)
[Burnout]
why is it dat shawty rolls up da weed//
but homies are all lonely, dont know how to read//
up in streets hustlin, only to feed//
drug dealin and stealin to get wat they need//
governtment on dey chest, they cant even breath//
livin on programs and projetcts only to bleed//
now i want yall to heed, and look at these aspects//
how yall play em if dey survivin from last check?//
look at the prospects, cant they get equal respect?//
but still choke em deep on dey necks and leave em in wrecks?//
tell me whats next. yall tryin to get segregation back//
drawin white lines just tryin'a separate from black//
forcin us to put otha kids on income tax//
tell me why cant the youth stay away from crack//
stay in school and get education they lack//
i spit truth in this track, leave ya minds with information//
put ya eyes on probation, look da direction we livin//
now listen and tell us wat help ya be givin'//
yall cant see our vision even if yall in our positions//
[M'Fresh]
Comin up from the ghetto, wit da murderous scum//
til you walk'd n these shoes, you never hurda the slums//
bums on every corner why must I see//
when they was young... man, they was prolly jus like me//
so what happened... to go from hustlin rocks//
from squadin up wit da AK's n bustin blocks//
to this... no cash jusa bottle in hand//
to proud to admit that life gotta outa hand//
So why life gotta be like this//
Why beef don't settle when they see ma clip//
well read ma lips I've had enough the slums//
enough of bein poor man enough of the dumps//
enough of only havin coolade n cereal//
n High School readin 5th grade material//
I don't care... i'll die for I settle//
cuz theres always gon be two sides to the ghetto//
Chorus:
I need your love... this is for the ghetto
im here to show...coz ya need to know
that up in the streets... theres the 2 sides of ghetto
(X2)
