(feat. Black Buddafly)

[talking:]

Trae the Truth, Lil' Boss, Black Buddafly yeah

We fin to do this one here for the ghetto, get at me

[Trae:]

No matter what a nigga say, I'm gon be stuck in the game

Just like them 26 inch rims, stuck on the frame

I'm in the hood full time, I still kick it the same

And still got a nigga baby mama, giving me brain

I been the Truth since a youth, I fell in love with the streets

Like the body of the slab, fell in love with it's feet

I put the Cheve to the floor, and run it to the concrete

With a bitch in the back, head banging to the beat

Try to run up on a G, I'ma put a nigga to sleep

Plus the heat up under my seat, will make a nigga retreat

I'm a boss, fucking with me I promise you'll never eat

And if you wanna go to war, then I promise you getting beat

They know I been around the world, and brought it back to the hood

Threw a hook of diamonds on, and brought it back to the wood

Niggaz stay in Hollywood, but I stay where I stood

And I'm gathered with them Assholes, up to no good

[Hook: Black Buddafly]

Welcome, to ghetto life (in the ghetto)

Welcome, to ghetto life

Streets are a daily life, (in the ghetto)

Welcome to ghetto, welcome to ghetto life

[Trae:]

I hear them niggaz with the truth, so I gaurntee nothing less

I do it for the hood, so it's nothing less than the best

G-code homie, and I'm here to keep it nothing less

And I'm from in the West, where it's nothing less than the best

Ghetto to the end, in a coupe like MJ

23 inches on a Cadillac, how a thug play

And what I'm packing, let em know don't get in a thug way

Any nigga can get it, coming to where I stay

I'm the truth in these streets, sitting in a black home

Front door and full of some'ing, black on some black chrome

I grind full time, till my money stack long

And I told you I was coming back, so it's back on

This here for the hood, and this here for the block

And the homies on the cell block, sitting on lock

Off top, when it come to the ghetto it don't stop

Number one in the hood, they be loving the way I rock

[Hook]

[Trae:]

Ain't no need for the discussion, I'm the shit in the South

Any nigga saying different, bout to lose a tooth out his mouth

Niggaz get flossed, I put it on the house

Keep playing with a G, a couple grand'll knock a nigga off

See I'm from the ghetto, where the drop top do's fly

Headed to the sky, with a dub when I fly by

Fo's swang wide, when I slide nigga no lie

Looking so live, heads turn when I roll by

[talking:]

Can you see me now, yeah

We gon keep it hood, 24/7 mayn

But I'm doing this one here, for the ghetto

Welcome to it mayn

I'm bringing this, directly to your face

Trae the Truth

[Hook]
