Ghetto, ghetto, ghetto, ghetto, ghetto, ghetto

I got my stash up in a box, I keep it locked, keep it locked
When I got my eyes on a fox, I keep ‘em locked, keep 'em locked
On patrol on my block, I keep it locked, keep it locked
And I’m loyal to a fault, I keep it locked, keep it locked
I keep it locked

We’ve got you nailed to a sign post
Have you seen this man?
Now you know he’s never been lost before
Out the back door
Like a midnight whore
But without the honor
And we don’t why
You decided to lie
But we accept that you felt the need to defy
None the less you have a debt that we need to correct
So we put this plan into effect
I got my stash up in a box, I keep it locked, keep it locked
When I got my eyes on a fox, I keep ‘em locked, keep 'em locked
On patrol on my block, I keep it locked, keep it locked
And I’m loyal to a fault, I keep it locked, keep it locked
I keep it locked

I always told myself I’d stay true to this crew
Look what you sacrificed
Following that fool inside you
I knew it would get back to me
I’d be the one to make you bleed
I always told myself I’d stay true to this crew

I keep it locked
