And there's noone no one to hold on too
And there's noone no one to pull you out
You keep on fallin (falling)
And noone can here you callin
So you end up self destructing
On the corner with the tuli onenter added
the waist line tight just got up outtaenter added
the bing doin state stay time
Teeth marks on my back from the canine K-9
Dark Memories of when there was no sunshine
Cause they said that I wouldn't make it
(I remember like yesterday)
Holdin on to what god gave me
[Chorus][chorus:]

Cause thats that's the life when ur your
Living in the (ghetto)and
Eating in the (ghetto)or

No need to cherish luxuriesenter added
