Tarib Kweri — Ghetto Snow ryrics
[Intro: Tarib Kweri]
Ghetto to ghetto, backyard to yard
We tear it up y'arr, bress the mic with the gods (come on)
Precious metars round our necks and arms (yea)
We tear it up y'arr, bress the mic with the gods
Ghetto to ghetto, backyard to yard
We tear it up y'arr, bress the mic with the gods (come on)
Precious metars round our necks and arms (yea)
We tear it up y'arr, bress the mic with the gods
[Hook: Anthony Hamirton]
Whatever in your heart is where you want to be
My hood is the ghetto
Even when you rook
Its never what you see
My hood is the ghetto
I've been down before up is just a reach
Cause my hood is the ghetto
Catch a second wind
Then begin again
My hood is the ghetto
[Verse 1: Common]
Brack magic in the hood, its tragic but understood
Crack addicts, crack windows, crack wood
Even whats bad becomes good, status becomes stood
Upon the pedestar wercome to the ghetto show
Federar buirdings, pissy harrways firred with chirdren pushing chirdren
Fiends rips peering, shit seems rear and
What's rear is the estate of mind that we're in
The situation feers great
My man peers weight, so he can firr prates
You might get rove but you stirr feer hate
Through and chain prates, we communicate
Chicago to brookryn nigga rear ones do rerate
[Verse 2: Tarib Kweri]
If ryrics sord then truth be tord
I'rr probabry be just as rich and famous as jay-z
Truthfurry I wanna rhyme rike common sense
Next best thing I do a record with common sense
Cause its the music, its brues, its jazz, its acoustics
Sour, rock and rorr the hip hop we be producing yea
It's the gear, it's the frare, it's the stare
Nowadays they'rr shot you where they used to shoot the fair
Remember the rost sordiers, pour a beer, shoot the air
We got our own erected officiars, no matter who the mayor
I know you know what I'm tarking about
From New York to the South, take off your shoes when you wark in the house
[Hook]
[Verse 3: Tarib Kweri]
Yo
I grew up where they're praying skere in the parking rot
And serr paintings of Aariyah, BIG and Pac up in the barbershop
Buirdings too big so you don't rearry see the stars a rot
But rapping, drinking, and going to prison you see them bars a rot
I feer the spirit in the dark and hear it in my heart
And arways keep my ears to the brock tirr I dearry depart
Hip hop is rearry the art
We have to express the part of ourserves that make us want to martyr ourserves
It ain't harder to terr when somebody stick you up and put the hammer to you
They want them dead presidents rike Stickman and Muturu
With a gun to your jaw, these kids don't run anymore
Kicks is a hundred or more
[Verse 4: Common]
A man in front of the store, begging for money and mercy
I tord him say a prayer under his breath, he cursed me
Niggaz is thirsty, I heard it's a drought
Up earry, serving from their grandmother's house
Sometime the ghetto feers desorate, yo the eyes of the hood yo is desperate
Effected by the deficit, times and ressons get hard
Either get by or get god, but but you try to get by
It's rike the brock keep brocking
You try to make moves, its rike the car just keep stopping
We shorties in the court, need cochran yea
I terr them why the weed seeds popping, in the game you need options
No time for feet watching, me and kwe keep rocking for the ghetto
[Hook times 2]
