Well you know I'm from the ghetto
Where it's so hard to let go, let go
Tryna move on but the streets keep calling my name
And you know I'm from the projects
Where it's so hard to stop and let go
Tryna move on but the streets keep calling my name
I spend my life in the projects
I ain't never went a day without no stress
So every single day I sip prometh
But somehow I still ain't get no rest
Pops never knew me so the streets abused me
Now every day moms scared she gon' lose me
Life is like a movie so I keep a uzi
Ridin' 'round, poppin' niggas up like suzukis
Beam and a scope on the 40, I can't miss
Gettin' rich with the same niggas I came with
Tryna move on from the game but can't quit
Makin' sure my daughter don't go through the same shit
Shit, times harder than it's ever been
Tryna stay safe chasing dead presidents
Barely beat the last case 'cause of evidence
I'm a factor while you niggas is irrelevant
Well you know I'm from the ghetto
Where it's so hard to let go, let go
Tryna move on but the streets keep calling my name
And you know I'm from the projects
Where it's so hard to stop and let go
Tryna move on but the streets keep calling my name
Tryna leave the ghetto but it's hard to let go
So I'm out of state with some soft that's stepped on
Too real for niggas so my balls is slept on
You wouldn't wanna walk on the floors I slept on
Growing up in poverty, it's hard to make it
Scratched off the serial numbers so it's hard to trace it
And when you're real, nigga it's so hard to fake it
So when the judge give you life it ain't hard to face it
Face it, shit is only getting harder
I just thank God that I'm blessed with a daughter
I know she care about all the things that I bought her
I just hope she stand by everything that I taught her
Well you know I'm from the ghetto
Where it's so hard to let go, let go
Tryna move on but the streets keep calling my name
And you know I'm from the projects
Where it's so hard to stop and let go
Tryna move on but the streets keep calling my name
I stay with my grandma, had government assistance
Did what I wanted up under her supervision
Little sister out of control, run me up in prison
And I beat feds with my mother's intuition
Man I need an intervention, I'm addicted to codeine
Lose my damn mind, go a day without no lean
Every night same dream, killed by a dope fiend
Money, murder and stress is all that coke bring
But it made me the illest nigga this coast seen
Live what I rap, ask the niggas that know me
Thinkin' 'bout my past, smokin' some OG
Prayin' that my daughter don't go before me
I'm sippin' on this lean, smokin' some cheese
Thing on me, ridin' through these Oakland streets
When I lost my little cuddy, auntie cried for a week
Less than a year later, she died in her sleep
Well you know I'm from the ghetto
Where it's so hard to let go, let go
Tryna move on but the streets keep calling my name
And you know I'm from the projects
Where it's so hard to stop and let go
Tryna move on but the streets keep calling my name
