Appleseedy - Ghetto (feat. Doc)

In da ghetto in da ghetto
The ghetto
In da ghetto in da ghetto
Now here's a 15 year old named Chris
A smart young man working hard for his shit
Most of his friends made their money on the corner
He chose to get a job and not sell the yola
When it came to school work he made good grades
With plans to go to college when he graduate
So he's staking every penny that he makes
So when that day come he know he gone be straight
He worked part-time at the neighborhood store
Right around corner from the hood liquor store
On a friday night chris got off late
Headed straight to the crib for a nice hot plate
Walking through the cut he got hemmed up
With a pistol in his face talking bout give it up
Chris tried to run because he got scared
All you heard was two shots and now chris dead damn
The ghetto
In da ghetto in da ghetto
The ghetto
In da ghetto in da ghetto
The ghetto
In da ghetto in da ghetto
The ghetto
In da ghetto in da ghetto
Now here's a 16 year old named keisha
She on the drill team so she got a nice figure
Mature for her age cause she raising her brother
Can't depend on her mother cause the streets got her mother
Daddy long gone cause he chose to cash out
So she don't know what a real man all about
Wide ass open looking for the big funds
From a dirty ass nigga who just want to have fun
Made her feel special by the way he spoiled her
Feeling like she the only one and he loved her
But she didn't know that he was big playa
Word around town that he was a pussy slaya
She was just another hit list for the smash
Giving up that ass for a little piece of cash
Went to the doctor because she felt conceived
Just to find out she got h.i.v. damn
The ghetto
In da ghetto in da ghetto
The ghetto
In da ghetto in da ghetto
The ghetto
In da ghetto in da ghetto
The ghetto
In da ghetto in da ghetto
Now here's a seventeen year old named Johnny
A straight A student and a high school scholar
A basketball player, on the court he be balling
Very popular all the cute girls loved him
Except for this one lil girl named tonya
She had low self esteem cause at home she had problems
Something about tonya that had caught the eye of Johnny
So he approached her and asked her for her number.
As they started to text back and forth with each other
The feelings began to get stronger for one another
Then they had sex and they didn't use a rubber
One of the biggest mistakes for the young couple
He fell in deep and didn't pull out
Nine months later a baby came out
Two young people that's still in high school 
Had to grow up fast and now they two more victims of the ghetto
In da ghetto in da ghetto
The ghetto
In da ghetto in da ghetto
The ghetto
In da ghetto in da ghetto
The ghetto
In da ghetto in da ghetto
