ghetto life lyrics
intro
hhmmm hmm hmm hmm
yeah yeah
verse
i nuh born to suffa
weh nuh k!ll mi
buil’ mi
make mi tuffa
militant in mindset
firm enough in structure
as youth
i was raised
in the ghetto known as common
reminisced on them days
never regret one moment
growing up
lived in a board house
with two bed that slept
the eight of us
when time
food scarce
mama go trus’
pound a cornmeal
an’ sugar, coconut
boil some porridge
pan coal stove
kitchen is a shed
like bathroom
use to be outdoors
few sheet a zinc and a hose
night timеs the shower cold
mi nuh know bout
gold spoon in a mouth
mi know survival mode
daddy load up his van
to go sеll crates of bottles
just to have money for us to
go to school tomorrow
chorus
every day try
though it’s so hard
to survive
we’ll never give up the fight
living this ghetto life
living in this ghetto life
repeat chorus
verse
due to circumstances
youths grow
with a cold heart
and a thick skin
in the get rich quick scheme
any means necessary
haffi mek it a foreign
mi a tell yuh
life in di ghetto
it nuh pretty, shot a echo
all wi know a hand to mouth
and that’s the poor man
living .. it hard
when food get short
dogs loud bark
jungle jesus rise
like christ nailed to the cross
man a pree fi tek life
naw hesitate pan di thought
poverty breed criminals
fatherless babies are born
to moms whose own
mothers don’t reach 31
raped by pedophile dons
corruption ripe amongst
politicians
for forty years stronghold
the garrisons nuh
change a d+mn
sustained impoverishment
inner cities
remain a slum
chorus
every day try
though it’s so hard
to survive
we’ll never give up the fight
living this ghetto life
living in this ghetto life
every day try
though it’s so hard
to survive
we’ll never give up the fight
living this ghetto life
living in this ghetto life
