Victim of the Ghetto

[Intro: Freeway]
Ch
Down in my area, chk a chk uh.. real shit nigga uh
It's the ROC
Yeah... Free... yea uh feel me.. Pa pause
Yo.. yo

[Verse 1: Freeway]
I was born in west but migrated to north
Remember cold nights grindin' AK in a Taurus
Four door for the stick up boys if they want war
Fiends comin' all night all I heard was four more
Rocks in the cap
When it was jumpin' me and Rell hit dances
You could pick me out the crowd rockin' the cap
But things change
Cause my man Rell fightin' a body
On State Road where it's so cold, rockin' his blues
I roll with the ROC, still trynna rock at a show
Shit ain't like 98' niggas pockets is low
Which way do I go? Indictments blew over
Man whipped a few shoulders
Shovel nick boulders gettin' it slow
Me, I'm in the studio switchin' the flow
Changin' the style, my son and daughter need pampers
Cause they just shittin' them up and changin' the size
My man Just quipped the Jags, see the change in his eyes

[Chorus: Freeway]
And I eat, sleep, buy, sell, drugs
Cause I'm just another victim of the ghetto
When I rob, steal, lie to get money, bust slugs
Cause I'm just another product of the ghetto
And I eat, sleep, buy, sell, drugs
Cause I'm just another victim of the ghetto
When I rob, steal, lie to get money, bust slugs
Cause I'm just another product of the ghetto

[Post-Chorus: Rell]
This is how it goes down in these ghetto streets
This is how it goes down in my neighborhood
This is how it goes down in these ghetto streets
This is how it goes down in my area

[Verse 2: Freeway]
My man blingin' platinum wheel, platinum gat
Took a trip down south, came back with platinum caps
I'm still tryna write platinum raps
But made a slight change from verse one, started jugglin' packs
It's like I'm travelin' backwards, rewindin' the time
Putting four on nine, must be outta my mind
Huh, nine, get it outta my palm
Just grab four and a half, get it outta my trunk
Free we need you at the studio, out to lunch
Out on the block, these niggas just pulled out on my man
And the only rock I worry bout is right on my face
We bout to go shake, rattle his block with no plans
Shots fired, cops came, but I'm a grown man
I stick around till my clip is empty
Cops threw me on the ground when my clip got empty
Now bars is all I see, a thug is all I'll ever be

[Chorus: Freeway]
And I eat, sleep, buy, sell, drugs
Cause I'm just another victim of the ghetto
When I rob, steal, lie to get money, bust slugs
Cause I'm just another product of the ghetto
And I eat, sleep, buy, sell, drugs
Cause I'm just another victim of the ghetto
When I rob, steal, lie to get money, bust slugs
Cause I'm just another product of the ghetto

[Post-Chorus: Rell]
This is how it goes down in these ghetto streets
This is how it goes down in my neighborhood
This is how it goes down in these ghetto streets
This is how it goes down in my area

[Verse 3: Freeway]
I got 11 in, I was facin' a dub
Got nine left, my clique show love, they write back
My cousin M's son, little Di he's so grown
Said he hold chrome, run blocks, and write raps
Wrote him right back, told him I control the bones
Try to play the phone, we could rhyme and hold wax
Leave that drug shit alone, don't forget you grown
It'll put you places where your mind can't get you back from
Little nigga ain't write me back since
Still supply the jail, L. Pridgen you got mail
It's probably all the letters you wrote him
What you mean? All the fucked up shit you told him
This shit from my cousin Emily I'm quotin' (uh huh)
Right out her letter, Little Di
Got popped in the head tryna steal a nigga leather
That's what the cops said but the streets could tell you better

[Chorus: Freeway]
And I eat, sleep, buy, sell, drugs
Cause I'm just another victim of the ghetto
When I rob, steal, lie to get money, bust slugs
Cause I'm just another product of the ghetto
And I eat, sleep, buy, sell, drugs
Cause I'm just another victim of the ghetto
When I rob, steal, lie to get money, bust slugs
Cause I'm just another product of the ghetto

[Post-Chorus: Rell]
This is how it goes down in these ghetto streets
This is how it goes down in my neighborhood
This is how it goes down in these ghetto streets
This is how it goes down in my area
