I knew this guy from atl georgia,
said he wanted to be a judge when he grew up,
had a good life livin up in the suburbs,
doin his thang, just tryna make him come up,
but one day things became to make a bad change,
his father left, and his mother had to maintain,
moved to the ghetto, joined a gang, and began to slang,
now he found himself, caught up in the game.
what can u gain from makin up your own rules?
a major change from the things that he use to do,
and he even stopped prayin like he use to,
now he doin what he thinks that he gotta do
now his boys is the only thing that he needs
and mary jane is his only necessity
the state of mind is his only capativity
and now he has to face reality
and this mentality
and what he did for the will of stability
his life's changed so physically mentally
he didnt mean to go through this intentionally
now he has to face reality
and the ghetto ghetto mentality
Till he was chained wit a baby mama
now hes trapped in a lifeless full of drama
still thinkin that he can do what he wants
but he gotta live for his son, cause hes still a father
now hes tryin to make money the best way he can,
trifflin down the streets, thinkin that he da man
dude is blind, he still cant understand
how much his life is gettin outta hand
what can u gain from makin up your own rules?
a major change from the things that he use to do,
and he even stopped prayin like he use to,
now he doin what he thinks that he gotta do,
now his boys is the only thing that he needs,
and mary jane is his only necessity,
the state of mind is his only capativity
and now he has to face reality
and this mentality
and what he did for the will of stability
his life's changed so physically mentally
he didnt mean to go through this intentionally
now he has to face reality
and the ghetto ghetto mentality
what would you do, if you gave the word to lose your soul?
can you relate? can you hear the message in these words?
I got the feelin to know you care, and I,
I wanna know if you'd take that chance
You could trust me boy, this is not the end.
If you dont hear true, then we'll talk again
Now his boys is the only thing that he needs
and mary jane is his only necessity
the state of mind is his only capativity
and now he has to face reality
a thuggish mentality
and what he did for the will of stability
his life's changed so physically mentally
he didnt mean to go through this intentionally
now he has to face reality
and the ghetto ghetto mentality
