Ghetto Mindstate (Can't Get Away)

WOOOO...new shit, Lil' Flip and Lyfe

(Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh)-talk to 'em Lyfe

(Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh)-talk to 'em Lyfe

(Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh, Oh)-Yea

I just can't go, I just can't stay

I just can't (you just what?)-I just can't get away

I just can't go, I just can't stay

I just can't (you just what?)-I just can't get away

Ay at fifteen I was makin moves

drinkin beer-shootin dice at school (Yea)

when most niggaz had a nine to five shiiit (fuck that shit)

on the block we makin nine to five grand

each day, yeah we got cheap yay

my niggaz on lock they call me on three way (hello)

the hood hot like a crock pot

dope fiends cuttin yards for a twenty piece of crack rock

around my way ain't nobody watchin Matlock

we tryna hot wire cars, and break pad locks

turn soft to hard drop it in Gladlock's

and drive flashy cars and get mad props and still I want change

Last week they caught my partner with a block of caine

and can't no amount of money stop the pain

They gave him 83 years his mama went insane (Damn)

Comin up with no father figure

I guess that made me a harder nigga (why)

cause I don't like to ask for shit

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

but I ain't telling little kids to go that route

but it's on TV everyday like they don't know that route

and little girls bein fast, bein grown tryna flirt

leavin home wearin pants, then change into a skirt

I live in the ghetto, I stay in the ghetto

run up wrong I'm sprayin that metal

cause ain't shit sweet around my way

all I know is one thing, how to get paid

with Lyfe on the hook I know we got another hit

this motivational music I know you feelin this

Ay and I was raised in the church

but where I'm from you gotta move that work

Why everybody tryna bring me down

because of me they respect H-Town

look I was here when y'all wasn't around

the first week you did aight but then that shit went down

Why everybody tryna bring me down

because of me they respect H-Town

look I was here when y'all wasn't around

the first week you did aight but then that shit went down

They tell you, you was born to die

yo'mama she was born to cry

yo'woman she was born to lie

hold you down so you can't feel life

I tell you that it's all a lie

young nigga you just gotta try

keep your eyes up on the sky

don't let ya dreams pass you by...cause somebody said
