Tired Of the Ghetto - Preston Shannon (All In Time)
The Ghetto
tired of the ghetto bringing me down
everywhere I look
there's bad things going on (in the ghetto)
people steal, rob and kill, got me scared to leave my home
little girls having bay after baby
living on a prayer
not enough food to feed them all
still no one seems to care
junkies smoking dope and selling everything
even sell theit bodies
and steal their mama's rings
jealousy and hatred, it's spread all around
one thing I know is
I'm tired of the ghetto
)
I'm tired of people being so low
)
just smoking round, no place to go ) refrain
jealous neighbours just hanging round )
I'm tired of the ghetto
)
I went to crack my car
somebody stole my tires
took my radio
my batterie and my wires
when your woman is all alone
friends go behind your back (you know they will)
offer her money for love
or try to get he high on crack (and that's a fact)
people smile in your face
and talk behind your back
come around to pull you back
and throw your mind on crack
bring it in my home
nobody heard a sound
can't take no more
I'm tired of the ghetto
I'm tired of people being so low
refrain
I'm gonna move away
find me somewhere nice
where people live together
that do you right
I got to find somewhere in town
to live in peace
I'm tired of the ghetto
refrain
tired of the ghetto x2
oh, I'm so tired
got to find me somewhere I have to live
I have to go where people do you right
I got to find me somewhere in town
so I can live
I can live in peace
