The Legendary Traxster - Lil' Ghetto Boy lyrics

(Johnny P) Ohh yeaahhh Whoaaa-ho-ohhhhhhh (Hook, Johnny P) I wonder what my life would be if I... Had that paaaper (Ohhhhhh) I'm just a ghetto boy A little ghetto boy (Ohhhhh) (Verse 1, AK) They tell me it's like The money, power; money and power How can this world rotate without this money and power? If I had money, I'd keep my peoples outta poverty Cause ain't no more starvin' when y'all around me, (Shiiit) This what it gotta be B, and every playa got paper Shinin' like a superstar, with matchin' minks and gators Keepin' our family off this poor table Cause ain't no food on it And every crab up in this bucket gotta move on it (Johhny P) I'm just a ghetto boy (AK) Livin' in this ghetto world Stayin' wit' this ghetto chick Hopin' to have a ghetto girl And after all, ain't no spaces for that How can we live up in this world, when ain't no place for the blacks? Cause every dollar got a dream behind it, we seem to be blinded Malcom X, he had to dream to remind us Believe me, havin' money can have this world f**ed up But it can't answer yo' prayers, when you get down on yo' luck (Hook, Johnny P) I wonder what my life would be if I... Had that paaaper I'm just a ghetto boy (Ohhh yes I am) A little ghetto boy (Ohhh) Now if I live on top of the world Shinin' like, diamonds and pearls (Diamonds and pearls) Still a ghetto boy (Yeaah) A little ghetto boy (Mmm) (Verse 2, Belo) I done lived my life up in the, ghetto Mama workin' hours Tryina feed a, family Daddy's in and out Takin' baths wit' broken showers Next-door neighbor gave us the vapors Callin' cops, cause we known to plot Break in they home, on some bogus capers But I never thought that it would affect me later Until I seen the hustle, when n***as ridin' stretch Navigators But, more now then later, I should come up Cause I seen my homie on the block, slangin' rocks And then his spot get gunned up I never visioned it'd be homicide Because they told me he'll live That's what they said when my homie Boosie died Could all these millions bring my n***a back? Could all these millions feed children? Could all these millions make my spirit fat? Would all my friends become my enemies? When my family becomes astonished Will my strengths becomes an enemy? Is this "pretend to be?" A vivid and magically? A vivid and magically I wonder, I wonder... (Johhny P) I wonder, whoooooaa-ooohhh-oaahhhhh (Hook, Johnny P) I wonder what my life would be if I... Had that paaaper (Had that paper) I'm just a ghetto boy (Ohhh, ohhh) A little ghetto boy (If I liiive) Now if I live on top of the world (The world) Shinin' like, diamonds and pearls (Diamonds and peaaarls, yeah) Still a ghetto boy (Mmm) A little ghetto boy (Johnny P) Back in the days, when I was poor I'm not poor anymore But somedays I said I wish that I was poor again Back in the days, when I was poor I'm not poor anymore (Da-da-da-da) But somedays I said I wish that I was poor again (Ohhh) (Verse 3, N.A.R.D) I remember when I stole deep When it was cold outside Sellin' packs and holdin' heat Run up and I fold in the street Penitentiary moldin' me And the city get as cold as, thugs I wonder will I come up? Get gunned up? Turned up? Or anotha' sta-tistic And my mama just goin', ball-istic Realistic-ally, don't wanna do the caper But I gotta get the paper, n***as ballin' Cause the county judge is callin' And the lawyer keep stallin' Why my n***as keep fallin', victim To the same old theory? Another bad outcome, leavin' mothers just out-done Then it suddenly just sinked in That my n***a just died last weekend, tears rollin' And I'm goin' off the deep end But I gotta stay stong, for the mothers and the kids Just standin' there lookin' at the chalk line In his hand was a co*ked nine Now should I walk a straight line? Cause "Time After Time" I just wanna rewind, and talk to you At the grave site, gave it to 'em every day and night But it's alright, and I really wanna talk to you I really wanna talk to you (Just really wanna talk to you) (*Talking*) Wa**up junior, I've been waitin' to say this for a long time I love you n***a, and I miss you (Johnny P: Ohhh, ohhh yea, ohh-oh) (Hook, Johnny P) I wonder what my life would be if I... (Whoooaa) Had that paaaper (Whooaa) I'm just a ghetto boy (My life would be) A little ghetto boy (If I liiive) Now if I live on top of the world Shinin' like, diamonds and pearls (Diamonds and peaaarls, yeah) Still a ghetto boy (Mmm) A little ghetto boy (Ohhh)
