Yeah, life of a ghetto child, I'm livin' wild and fire, just the life of a ghetto child
Life of a ghetto child, I'm livin' book wild, just the life of a ghetto child
I'm flippin' back in my mind to the year 86, comin' up a young book
My homies jumped me in the clique, now it's on, I'm on the corner slingin' rock
That's a rock, rollin' with my big partner with my Glock cock
Cause in the AK, nigga, you know it's all real
I spot that blue-eyed devil, nigga, and I shoot the kid, but I know
I'm makin' myself mo' corrupt, I'm alone now
And them G's, they don't give a *, damn, what can I do to make my life right?
I'm livin' on the edge with these fakers in the shites, like
I'm seein' visions of myself gettin' booked, if I stay in the game
I be * outta lookin', now it's * up
My situation gettin' critical, sometimes it seems like
It's gonna take a miracle for a young black male to excel
Them malls all on my back, tryin' to lock a G in jail
I ain't never gave a damn about a 5-0
Representin' from the slums, bustin' caps in them hoes
That nigga dreamin' overbuckin' with my 10
Lettin' off shots with my homies and my next of kin
Cause I beat the downright imminent nigga mobbin' with that jam down
How the * you figure, you gon' step, you better have your weapon
A ghetto child, and then I'm packin' facts with them wicks
Pikes, but forget them all, I'm a ghetto child
Livin' wild and fine, just the life of a young ghetto child
Life of a ghetto child, livin' booked, wild
Life of a ghetto child
Comin' up in the ghetto, it brought me much stress
And makin' that crazy pay is the way that I know best
And since I was a G, I had to play my part
I'm true to the game, and plus I got much heart
I gotta make ends meet to feed my family
I'm steady strugglin' on the corner with no degree
I find it hard to live off in this cruel world
The only thing that I can do is live off of it
And it kept me goin' was my baby girl
My mama tellin' me, Dren, it's gonna be alright
But in reality, I can't take another night
I'm frustrated, I gotta get my grip upgraded
Mobbin' with that jam down, now them fakers hate it
And every night I'm out there on my corner checkin' the grip
Never worryin' about the marks when they start to set trip
And if you feel me, nigga, be real with me, nigga
I'm posted up on my cut, I'm drinkin' my liquor
Life of a ghetto child, livin' wild and fine
Just the life of a ghetto child
Life of a ghetto child, I'm livin' wild and fine
I'm livin' for wild
Life of a ghetto child, I'm livin' wild and fine
Life of a ghetto child
Just the life of a ghetto child
I'm throwin' through the thang, a ghetto child
I'm livin' fire
Yeah, as I kick it on my cut, you know that I'm lit
I'm tryin' to make her come up, break my mama off real quick
Even though the ghetto got me wonderin', will I make it?
It's in my bloodline, so a G can't fake it
My mama stuck through my trials and tribulations
What do I do? I got myself in this situation
Street life, nigga, you know it ain't no thang to me
I'm comin' up fast, goin' for that hokey
Put my partners down, now we livin' right
My people's flippin' Lexus, and I own all the west side
My big brother just got into some funk
I can't let my peoples go out like no more gas pump
Now I'm on this mission with my bigger brother
How was I to know that his hookup wasn't undercover?
Now I'm headed for that beam
I got down for my crown, but I'm broke in the end
Life of a ghetto child livin' wild and fine
This your boy Dreum comin' at you for the 9, 6
Straight up out that jam down
I got much love for my niggas up there in the AK
Y'all niggas keep on doin' that thang
We all get up, Charles, boy
Gotta make it, you know what I'm sayin'?
Every day ain't nothin' but a struggle, man
My boys, much love to them down here in Houston
Y'all niggas down
Especially them niggas up here, Jam Down
My nigga Pat, my nigga Vince
Y'all put a nigga down
Now we gon' smoke
Y'all niggas down
Y'all niggas down
Now we gon' smoke
