Ghetto Mindstate (Can't Get Away)

[Lil' Flip:]

Whooooooo!

[Lyfe Jennings:]

Uh [x8] (talk to em Lyfe) uh [x4] (talk to em Lyfe) uh [x4]

[Chorus x2: Lyfe Jennings]

I just can't go..... I just can't stay... I just can't, you just wont

I just can't get away.......

[Lil' Flip:]

Ghetto mindstate!

At 15 I was making moves

Drinking beer shooting dice at school

when most niggas had a 9 to 5 shit

on the block we making 9 to 5 grand...

each day yeah we got cheap yay (holla)

My niggas on lock they called me on 3 way

The hood hot like a crock pot

Dope fiends cutting yards for a 20 piece of crack rock

Around my way aint nobody watching matlock

We trynna hot wire cars and break pad locks

Turn soft to hard drop it in glad locks

And drive flashy cars and get mad props

And still I wont change

Last week they caught my patna with a block of caine

And can't no amount of money stop the pain

They gave him 35 years his momma went insaine

[Chorus x2]

[Lil' Flip:]

Ghetto mindstate!

Coming up with no father figure

I guess that made me a harder nigga (why?)

Cuz I dont like to ask for shit

When I came in the game with a half a brick (yes!)

But I aint telling lil' kids to go that route

But is on TV everyday like they dont know that route

And Lil girls being fast

Being grown trynna Flirt

Leaving home wearing pants

then change in to a skirt

Huh!

I live in the ghetto I stay in the ghetto (yeah!)

Run up grown Im spraying that metal

Cuz aint shit sweet around my way

All I know is one thing how to get paid (yeah!)

With Lyfe on the hook I know we got another hit

This motivational music

I know you feeling this (ey!)

And i was raised in a church

But were Im from you gotta do that work

[Chorus x2]

[Lil' Flip:]

Why everybody trynna bring me down

because of me they respect H-town

Look I was here when yall wouldnt around

The first week you did a alright

But then that shit went down

Why everybody trynna bring me down

because of me they respect H-town

Look I was here when yall wouldnt around

The first week you did a alright

But then that shit went down!!

[Lyfe Jennings:]

They tell you you were born to die

Yo momma she was born to cry

Yo woman she was born to lie

Hold you down so you can't rely

I tell you that its all a lie

Young nigga You just gotta try

Keep your eyes up on the sky

Don't let your dreams pass you by

Cuz somebody said
