[Intro Female vocals emotional]
[Ghosty / Beat][Heavy 808 bass slide kicks in, sharp hi-hats tripping]
Living in the ghetto, ghettooooo, ghettooooo,Mama, sorry, I am criminal, criminal, criminal
[Verse 1 Male vocals]
Bandits, we don't chat, we just press it (we press it).No prospects, no love, just the trenches.Stench of the piss on the concrete pavement,Grew up around trash and the needles, depraved shit.Mum, I’m a sinner, I’m sorry, I’m dynamic,Servin' up poison, toxic, panic.Double shifts, late nights, trap never sleeps,"NeverEnding Story", lines on the streets.Nitties talk to rocks, lookin' at dragons,Trippin' like Fuchur just gave 'em a fisting.That's why the loaded is under the pillow,Try play with the gang, you get put in the willow. (Shh)
[Pre-Chorus Male vocals]
Tell me, who’s gonna miss you? (Who?)Two taps, dot-dot, now you kissin' the boot. (Safe)Nank in the chest, make it splash, make it wet,Drill in the night, no remorse, no regret.
[Chorus Femal vocals emotional]
Living in the ghetto, ghettooooo, ghettooooo,Mama, sorry, I am criminal, criminal, criminal, ghettooooo, Living in the ghetto, ghettooooo.
[Verse 2 Male vocals]
What am I meant to do? (What?)Heart for the family, but the pressure is through.You lot can laugh, it's true,But the hunger is the only thing pushing me through. (Push it!)Don't care about the talk, this is life on the edge,Striving for better, I’m making the pledge.You won't even see how the cycle revolves, (Listen)Just another day where the problem evolves.Don't look at me sideways, speak straight or just go,Hard work on the pavement, that's all that I know.Too late for the excuses when the timing is thin,Keep focused on winning, don't let it get in. (Yeah!)
[Pre-Chorus Male vocals]
Tell me, who’s gonna guide you? (Who?)Struggle in the soul, with the city inside you. (Safe)Work in the night, trying to settle the debt,Life in the manor, no room for regret.
[Chorus Femal vocals emotional]
Living in the ghetto, ghettooooo, ghettooooo,Mama, sorry, I am criminal, criminal, criminal, ghettooooo, Living in the ghetto, ghettooooo.
[Outro]
Beat filters out, heavy low-end bass sliding slowlyYeah.Double shifts.No love on these pavements.Wishing for better days.Yeah
