Trouble
In the Ghetto
[Verse 1: Trouble]
She's only fourteen years old, never had a father
Her mama on the blow, she only going under, so I guess she’s all alone
Wanting something to eat, cause ain't nothing in her home
If that's what you call it, two bedrooms, these people ain’t got no heat niether
Stressin tryna know why her pops don't want to keep her
People keep tellin her fuck 'm, you'll be aight
But how so, when the coat is the only thing keepin her warm at night
So one night, she decided to go swallo her pride
Cause her friends been recommending she go for a ride
Now hot box to a hot spot, get a lil cash
But they didn't tell her to get the cash, she gotta get out fast
She goin step in the spot, house jumpin
Feelin kinda nervous, heart pumpin
No young dudes around, they grown men
Who all blowin weed, sippin on Jin
Time goes, they start to disappear
One here, one here, till it's down to her and the n***a with the Benz
He took her upstairs, gave it to her bad, she won't refuse it
She realised the man was too strong, she's only losing
Plus she’s being held down by another brother
Blood on the sheets and covers, oh brother
Wake up in the morning, take herself to get tested
Found out she was ades infected

[Chorus: Big Bank Black]
See, you wouldn’t understand if you wasn't in these streets
Bout life in the ghetto
Life in the ghetto
I know you don’t know what it feels like to not eat or sleep
When you live in the ghetto
When you come from the ghetto
[Verse 2: Trouble]
Young and thuggin, 17, he got a Glock
Tryna get the cream, he survin feends
Scream when confronted by the big dogs, but he gotta get his own
Take shifts and take trips when it's time to move
Cool, no school for him
Fuck a principal, no rules for him
He not really gettin it, there's still rules in the streets
Listen to the OGs, or be done and get found
His money been gettin lardger, he been grindin harder
Got some beef with some n***as catchin the marder
Thought they was only talkin shit, then they said who wanna hit

[Chorus: Big Bank Black]
See, you wouldn't understand if you wasn’t in these streets
Bout life in the ghetto
Life in the ghetto
I know you don't know what it feels like to not eat or sleep
When you live in the ghetto
When you come from the ghetto
