(feat. Master P) dear God can ya save me if you can't save me, save our babies (we trying to keep it real, so many ghetto tears my people cry life is hard and I see that every day, just so many ghetto tears in the ghetto) age 11 looking out of a ghetto building mom and 5 of us little ghetto children I ain't never knew wrong from right growing up off my life, thinking Adidas had 4 stripes so my uncle tried to warn us told us not to do drugs, but yesterday I saw him on it see in my hood it ain't no love age 13, seen my auntie o.d. on drugs the neighborhood hoe only 15 and everybody wants to bang her found her dead, gave herself and abortion with a clothes hanger I seen on of my neighbors try everything but couldn't make it came home one day killed his whole family I guess he couldn't take it I give back, even if it ain't nothing big look at my grandma, terminal disease only got months to live they tell us we ain't gonna be nothin gave my homie 25 years I shed tears for all my peers [chorus:] dear god can ya save me if you can't save me, save our babies so many ghetto tears my people cry you ain't supposed to question God but I'm asking why so many ghetto tears my people cry through out the years, my people shed ghetto tears my people shed ghetto tears, through out the years the ghetto's like a headache, one big ol migrane tryin to stay high till I die tryin to like hide the pain my homey mama died and didn't know it when she died he committed suicide my homie jumped up off the sixth floor maybe it's too late for me since I'm still here, I'm kinda glad to be been in and out of jail since i was 12 life been hectic since mama had me I have to ask myself the simple question why it's so hard to live but yet so easy to die with this simple question Lord can you help me just tryin to live large and wealthy from these card that you dealt me I used to ask ?, but now they ask me life passed em up, I wonder will life pass me cause it really ain't no love for us ghetto kids for all the dirt that I did I don't think I'll find where heaven is I wonder why they won't panic and try to ban it probably cause they scared of it I just dont understand it [CHORUS] how could you carry a kid for 9 months black she had a baby boy but while she she was pregnant she was smoking crack how could you rape and abouse your kids how could you committ incest and say you love your kids they ain't ask to be here, they ain't ask to see here slipped here by 15 minutes of pleasure that's why they can't see clear from the cradle to the grave or from the cemetary to the penatentary life is so hard now bet ya leave it [CHORUS] |
