Roots[00:00:02]

Praise for the days when I couldn't get paid[00:00:09]

In the fix on the mix in the d**n projects[00:00:11]

Cracks for the blacks but I couldn't sell that[00:00:14]

Even though blacks couldn't get jobs and s**t[00:00:16]

Hit after hit from the Sugarhill Gang[00:00:19]

Hear a Pow Wow hear a Big Bank Hank[00:00:21]

It was strange I was broke but I still got the record[00:00:23]

Even though I was poor and about butt naked[00:00:26]

Rats in my front room roaches in the back[00:00:28]

Junkies in the alley running styles for the crack[00:00:30]

It was ill on the real I be still bugging off it[00:00:33]

In the ways I will walk it so today I can talk it[00:00:35]

It's a shame how the games in the ghetto get played[00:00:37]

On the cracks they paid for the tricks they laid[00:00:40]

I'm afraid for the youth in this time we're living in[00:00:42]

Just about 13 on the scene scrambling[00:00:44]

Gambling small time apologize nice[00:00:47]

I'm about to roll 10 7's for the crap I rolled twice[00:00:49]

Rough business it's a rich mon time[00:00:52]

When you ain't got the loot you resort to the crime[00:00:54]

From the cess house the youth house the jail house the Cult house[00:00:56]

Where I perfected these skills I be doggin[00:00:59]

Love to teach the facts but the brothers in the back[00:01:01]

Can't see what I'm saying cause the blunt smoke is foggin[00:01:03]

Still I proceed with degrees of the wisdom[00:01:06]

Cause this s**t's thick it kicks and I know it[00:01:08]

Lickle do you know there's a God and so[00:01:11]

Born just like Christ in a d**n ghetto[00:01:13]

From ghetto to ghetto from project to project[00:01:34]

Bookbag of lessons but I ain't have dough yet[00:01:37]

From knowledge to wisdom from wisdom to see[00:01:39]

And understand me if you don't dance G[00:01:41]

It's a god in the house it's a god in the house[00:01:44]

And I'm godding it out and I'm godding it out[00:01:46]

I've come a long way the strong way the wrong way I lived it[00:01:48]

The right way you might say I got it I'll give it[00:01:51]

But praise for the days when I used to be tramp[00:01:53]

And had to freeload of my Earth's food stamps[00:01:56]

'Til I stopped paused start the pop's stores[00:01:58]

It was ill on the real but who's to die for us[00:02:00]

Say that I rock my own community[00:02:03]

Ain't a d**n thing owned by the you or the me[00:02:05]

It's Koreans I be seeing on the neighborhood corners[00:02:07]

With the guns and the stores and love the  owners[00:02:10]

So beg my parton peace Natasha Harton[00:02:12]

See I won't forget I know for s**t's starting[00:02:14]

From my way to LA from JA to UK[00:02:17]

I am who I am I say what I say[00:02:19]

I gots no time to love a slave trader[00:02:22]

Cause according to the constitution they'll always hate us[00:02:24]

Play this say this and say it like I said it[00:02:27]

Cause a magazine edit can get your a*s beheaded[00:02:29]

I'm thorough breaded black slave dreaded[00:02:31]

The s**t that y'all doing I already did it[00:02:34]

But lickle do you know there's a God and so[00:02:36]

Born just like Christ in a d**n ghetto[00:02:38]

Praise for the days when I used to be trife[00:03:00]

With a lack of understanding anything about life[00:03:02]

So thanks to Malcom Martin Wylee Ferartin[00:03:04]

Father Allah talk the talk that I'm starting[00:03:07]

Peace to Elijah we can't forget about ya[00:03:09]

Teaching us how ta get up out the[00:03:12]

Project complex caves[00:03:14]

Another d**n rave for the d**n ex slave[00:03:16]

My ghetto noise ringing from a project hallway[00:03:18]

Don't want to hear my mom say Blacks have come a long way[00:03:20]

How can she see that when we haven't eaten all day[00:03:23]

Haven't had a job since the ending of the slave trade[00:03:25]

Then they give us church attempt to try and ease this[00:03:28]

But I check it out had to learn about Jesus[00:03:30]

Told em he was black and they called me a hater[00:03:32]

Then he's on the church wall yeah like a slave trader[00:03:34]

Something real funny's going on boy I'll tell ya[00:03:37]

Send you up sell ya free ya try to kill ya[00:03:40]

Martin taught me much when he simply tried to love em[00:03:42]

Brother all about peace but the devils had to snuff him but[00:03:44]

Lickle do you know there's a God and so[00:03:47]

Born just like Christ in a d**n ghetto[00:03:49]

Lickle do you know there's a God and so[00:03:52]

Born just like Christ in a d**n ghetto[00:03:54]
