[00:00:00] Born In The Ghetto (edited album version) - Fat Joe (肥仔乔)

[00:00:02] Yeah it's time baby

[00:00:06] It's time to speak the truth maturity

[00:00:10] Huh niggas gotta evolve to let niggas know the real

[00:00:13] Ya call yourself real

[00:00:14] Ya gotta start speakin about the real

[00:00:16] This is Joe Crack The Don

[00:00:18] And this is what I'm bringin to you

[00:00:20] Uh yo nowadays I'm flirtin with uncertain death

[00:00:24] Lord I gotta be dyin cause after all this cryin

[00:00:26] How much more hurtin's left

[00:00:28] When will the pain stop

[00:00:29] This depression and anxiety

[00:00:30] Is gonna make me show another side of me

[00:00:33] My niggas ride with me cause I'm the truth

[00:00:36] There's benefits to rollin with this clique

[00:00:38] Don't nobody f**k with you

[00:00:39] Still they label me a tyrant and a backstabber

[00:00:42] But study the facts of crack

[00:00:43] The sh*t don't add up

[00:00:45] I'm bringin opportunity to my community

[00:00:47] Probably the only rapper that cares

[00:00:49] But still you out to ruin me

[00:00:50] Who you foolin B I'm for unity

[00:00:53] Latins and blacks

[00:00:53] Could you fathom the strength

[00:00:55] We have of the two it attach

[00:00:57] Born together voted alike

[00:00:58] These uncle charm politicians ain't holdin us right

[00:01:01] How could the same ni**a be 20 years in office

[00:01:04] When it's clear the only thing

[00:01:05] That's risin is unemployment

[00:01:07] Abortion little kids havin kids

[00:01:09] The school system is failing us

[00:01:11] Now ain't that some sh*t

[00:01:12] While the rich keep gettin richer

[00:01:14] The poor keep dyin young

[00:01:15] I can't hide no more the time has come

[00:01:18] I was born in the ghetto

[00:01:24] Tremblin tryin' a stay alive

[00:01:29] Cause when you're born in the ghetto

[00:01:35] No one seems to hear your cry

[00:01:40] Brown skin

[00:01:42] You know I love my bra-ha-own skin

[00:01:44] Everyday I'm confronted with racism

[00:01:47] These motherf**kin coppers

[00:01:48] Wanna bag us and have us shackled up in state prisons

[00:01:51] After all the taxes I pay

[00:01:53] You would think when they stop us

[00:01:55] They would have something nicer to say

[00:01:57] Than "get the f**k out the car where the drugs at

[00:01:59] All the jewelry you wearin where the f**kin guns at

[00:02:02] Once they search the car clean and find nothin

[00:02:05] The same crooked cops try to act

[00:02:07] Like they know us or somethin

[00:02:08] Laughin tellin jokes by the thousands

[00:02:10] Two seconds ago they tried to

[00:02:12] Send us to the mountains

[00:02:13] Leave my son without a father

[00:02:15] My wife without a husband

[00:02:16] The more I think about it

[00:02:18] Man it's just disgusting

[00:02:19] Still we live amongst 'em

[00:02:20] Everybody wants out

[00:02:21] That's why we rap like we got

[00:02:23] Silver spoons in our mouths

[00:02:25] Like we ain't grow up on welfare

[00:02:27] Ni**a don't even go there

[00:02:28] You probably wore Pro Players

[00:02:30] We need to educate the youth

[00:02:32] Tell our seeds the truth

[00:02:33] Too much to share

[00:02:34] The bare minimum will exceed the proof

[00:02:36] I was born in the ghetto

[00:02:41] Tremblin tryin' a stay alive

[00:02:46] Cause when you're born in the ghetto

[00:02:52] No one seems to hear your cry

[00:03:00] Oh yeah so much pain

[00:03:07] Tryin hard to stay alive stay alive

[00:03:14] Out in these streets oooh harmonizing

[00:03:23] Man sometimes in can get so tough

[00:03:28] Oh yeah yes it can

[00:03:33] Yes it can yeah

[00:03:39] It can get so hard so hard so hard
