This goes out to my Tata�'s in the [ghetto]
My Toerkoe's in the [ghetto]
My Mocro's in the ghetto [ghetto]
This goes out to the Anti's in the [ghetto]
Maluku's in the [ghetto]
The Joego's in the [ghetto]
[Ghetto living]
These streets remind me of quicksand [quicksand]
When your on it you'll keep goin down [goin down]
And there's no one to hold on to
And there's no one to pull you out
You keep on fallin ([falling]
And no one can here you callin
So you end up self destructing
On the corner with the tuli on the waist line just got outta the bing doin state time
Teeth marks on my back from the K-9
Dark memories of when there was no sunshine
Cause they said that I wouldn't make it
[I remember like yesterday]
Holdin on to what god gave me
[Chorus]
This goes out to my tataa's in the [ghetto]
My Toerkoe's in the [ghetto]
My Mocro's in the ghetto [ghetto]
Ghetto
This goes out to the anti's in the [ghetto]
Maluku's in the [ghetto]
The Joego's in the [ghetto]
[Ghetto living]

Yo snap het niet
Je verdriet is diep van binnen, je wilt wel opnieuw beginnen [oh oh]
Maar je wordt geconfronteerd, [look out for the skotoe]
En je ziet van die dingen, je broertje gearresteerd [and dont get locked up]
Je vader zakt zachtjes neer, je moeder die kan niet meer
Het doet je zeer, je droogt een traan en kijkt uit het raam
Het is alsof je wijk getroffen is door een orkaan
Overal liggen vuilniszakken er lopen ratten[oh yeah]
Junkies die elkaar om een bolletje willen klappen [ghetto]
Politie rijdt voorbij ziet iedereen als verdachte
In de keiharde wereld is er geen ruimte voor een zwarte [its so hard]
Survival of the fittest Hoeveel heb je in petto? [no time for fatoes]
Dat is de eeuwen oude vraag als je leeft in een ghetto! [soul survivour]
[Akon (Bridge)]
Whoever said that this struggle would stop today
A lot of niggas dead or locked away
Teenage Women growing up with aids
[Chorus]
Cause thats the life when your
Living in the [ghetto] oh
Eating in the [ghetto] or
Sleeping in the [ghetto, ghetto]
Thats the life when ur
Living in the (ghetto]oh
Eating in the (ghetto) or
Sleeping in the (ghetto, ghetto, ghetto)
[Ali B]
Yo, je kijkt om je heen maar kan niet geloven wat je ziet
Een gebied vol verdriet een hele wijk is failliet
Een bandiet die weer schiet in de rondte voor niets
Het is een plek waar je vermoord wordt voor een simpele fiets [ooh yeah]
Ik heb het over de ghetto van de Verenigde Staten
Waar kinderen van 12 rondlopen met een wapen [ooh yeah]
Maar ook in Nederland is het niet altijd wat het lijkt
Criminaliteit stijgt in de achterstandswijk
Kijk, ik wil niet zeggen dat de Bijlmer als New York is [even in the Bimre]
Maar heel veel van die mensen die doen net of het een dorp is [keep on calling]
Waar nooit wat gebeurt terwijl de flats zijn bezet door de junks aan de crack
Je houdt jezelf voor de gek [oh oh oh]
[Chorus]
This goes out to my tata's in the [ghetto]
My Toerkoe's in the [ghetto]
My Mocro's in the ghetto [ghetto]
Ghetto
This goes out to the anti's in the [ghetto]
Maluku's in the [ghetto]
The Joego's in the [ghetto]
[Ghetto living]
[oh oh]
