ghetto in your mind - mic murphy lyrics

[intro]
the ghetto is not a place, it’s a condition
doo*da*wop
doo*da*wop
doo

[verse 1]
i learned my abcs in the street of ketamine
bereft of luxury, all i owned was my self*esteem
too proud to accept rejection, too poor to fake attention
i’ve seen the flowers die, but i survived ‘cause i was
[pre*chorus]
born and raised in the ghetto
toughest part of the city
low*down, hard and gritty
say you wanna get out, but how you livin’

[chorus]
(doo*da*wop) ghetto in your mind
can you free your soul when your hands are tied? (ghetto in your mind)
ghetto in your mind
talking ‘bout the place where your dreams have died
(ghetto in your mind)

[verse 2]
fictions of little feat
momma made sure we had food to eat
it was the best and worst of times
we’d never seen no wealthy route
makin’ [?]
havin’ fun was our only mission
we never ever committed a crime
the road was tough and so am i

[pre*chorus]
born and raised in the ghetto
toughest part of the city
low*down, hard and gritty
say you wanna get out, but how you livin’
(hey, hey, yeah)
[chorus]
(doo*da*wop) ghetto in your mind
can you free your soul when your hands are tied? (ghetto in your mind)
(doo*da*wop) ghetto in your mind
talking ‘bout the place where your dreams have died
(ghetto in your mind)

[bridge]
carry the weight of the world on your shoulders
with a smile
and you can free yourself from
a world that’s been victimized, ghettoized
it’s just a state of your mind

[interlude]
hmm, ghetto in your mind (we see black, white and all those colors)
(that colors our view of what people are)
(all of those that are listening) ghetto in your mind (yeah, yeah)
oh, the ghetto (yeah, ha)

(doo*da*wop) livin’ in a ghetto existence
but still optimistic
you gotta take life and run with it
how you living with chains if you change how you’re livin’?
the very first step in being [?]
but you can’t get [?] in that [?]
and find what you want and make it happen
it’s not the drugs that make a brother do a crime, ha
it’s the ghetto in his mind
[chorus]
hey, hey, yeah
(doo*da*wop) ghetto in your mind
can you free your soul when your hands are tied? (ghetto in your mind)
(doo*da*wop) ghetto in your mind
talking ‘bout the place where your dreams have died
(ghetto in your mind)

(doo*da*wop) ghetto in your mind
can you free your soul when your hands are tied? (ghetto in your mind)
(doo*da*wop) ghetto in your mind
talking ‘bout the place where your dreams have died
(ghetto in your mind)
