Spice 1 - Ghetto Star lyrics

[Hook] Shameless stuff for you to see What your life could truly be And if you're really from the streets Spit that ghetto poetry Cause you're a shining star Cause you're a shining star No matter who you are No matter who you are And never fail to see Never fail to see The real G-A-M-E [Verse 1] Back in the day I used to smoke a blunt and pray before I got on the stage And I was opening up for N.W.A And I remember how it all began I used to steal cars from Haywood, take them back to East Oakland Till Short Dawg picked me up from high school I was just a little n***a with heart,and uncle Short was hella cool Took me to the studio, I met the homie Richie Rich And all the way there people waved with their Caddy and screamed b*atch That moment was frozen in time And I got memories like that embedded deep in my mind Cause that's when something clicked in my head and said this is you The whips, money lifestyle, women, it's all true I went to sleep that night and dreamt I was a rap star Woke up and wrote 187 Proof and started going hard But the haters was hating, on the level of the devil Then the riots kicked in and I gave you "Welcome to the Ghetto" [Hook] [Verse 2] It was me, Scarface and Eiht on the cover of Source Mag In the blue '64 Chevy Impala rag And Menace II Society was the movie to watch I just did the soundtrack, smoking big with the homie Pac I did Triggas Gots No Heart in 18 straight up minutes UGK, Big Poppa, full of stones and we was in it From the Bay to LA back to Houston with DJ Screw Cause Pimp C and Bun B was on the tour with us too (UGK) I've been around too many legends to fail I've either been shot up, stabbed or thrown in jail But through the flames and the fire I emerged through the ashes And shaped the game like it was made out of clay [?] Bossalini, Fetti Chico, Soprano, Montana, Meier Spice 1, I come from the Bay and I spit fire Float like a bu*terfly, sting like a bee I wanna say I shooked the world like Muhammad Ali [Hook]
