[Verse 1]
Yeah
We living in the ghetto
The weather isn't mellow
We only getting by by selling instrumentals
We don't pay for our own living
We pay for our prescription
We don't feed our own children but we feeding our addictions
We fighting to survive in the concrete jungle
It's right before our eyes
Last piece of the puzzle
I got it a muddle
The boys were in a huddle
And that's when I drowned in the deepest of puddles
And then I got shot

[Hook]
Young n***a got shot in the head
It's not fun down here
If you come down here
You get run by feds in the ghetto
In the ghetto
I'm doing as I should
Trying to do good
Society thinks I'm a thug from the hood in the ghetto
In the ghetto

[Verse 2]
That's mental
Don't wanna get into it
But it blew up like Coke and Mentos
That coke was a rental
My worst investment
Armed police with the bullet proof vests and hounds are chasing
Times a wasting
My main guys had a strap on his waist
Said he needed the protection but he didn't listen
It was his deception and now he's in prison
They say that I'm a witness but I didn't see shit
CCTV
That doesn't prove shit
I was at home that night watching X-Factor
They say "Tell me who's really got X
Is it her?"
I won't snitch on my bird
That's just absurd
I walked out the court and the last thing I heard
Was a Jeep pull up
Skeng pulled out
I said my last words then she screamed out he's dead
Got shot

[Hook]
Young n***a got shot in the head
It's not fun down here
If you come down here
You get run by feds in the ghetto
In the ghetto
I'm doing as I should
Trying to do good
Society thinks I'm a thug from the hood in the ghetto
In the ghetto

[Verse 3]
Santa can't fit through the central heating
She asked for a pony
He gave her a beating
She gave her a kiss to stop the bleeding
And now she knows that love is not healing
Daddy never left ‘cause the family need him
‘Cause who else will get a job and feed them
Seven plus kids from too much breeding
Holding in the tears cause it’s Christmas evening

[Hook]
Young n***a got shot in the head
It's not fun down here
If you come down here
You get run by feds in the ghetto
In the ghetto
I'm doing as I should
Trying to do good
Society thinks I'm a thug from the hood in the ghetto
In the ghetto
Young n***a got shot in the head
It's not fun down here
If you come down here
You get run by feds in the ghetto
In the ghetto
In the ghetto
In the ghetto
I'm doing as I should
Trying to do good
Society thinks I'm a thug from the hood in the ghetto
In the ghetto
In the ghetto
In the ghetto
