Album: Remember My Name (Deluxe Edition)

Track No: 11

I grew up like that
Money deep
Nowhere to sleep, nowhere to go
People to meet, I'm from these streets
I grew up like that
Steady going to funerals, steady going to interviews
Not going too far, so I stick to the wall
I grew up like that
I grew up in the ghetto
Where niggas don't make it out like that
I grew up in the ghetto
Where my niggas don't make it out like that

I grew up with fam
I grew up with niggas that call me fam
I grew up with niggas who state they man
I grew up with niggas who got in that jam
I grew up with niggas doing life in the can
One time, fighting for man
But I grew up in the ghetto
Times ain't nothing, go to school just to eat lunch
No kid watching re-runs, wake up doing re-runs
My momma, my opponent (let's get it!)
These millions I'm on it
And I gotta eat nigga

On the corners everyday with the lights out
Walk in broad day with the pipes out
Waking up middle night with the lights out
So I can make a figure
I pray to God that make it
I tell my momma I can't take it
The ghetto

C-C-Came up in the ghetto
People tell me keep my head up my whole life
If I didn't have nothing, [?]
B-B-Bitches out here, just shut up
Rest in peace my lil shawty
I promise I wish I could write you a letter
And the Michigan momma
I Trap like it's life because no one is promised tomorrow
Pray to my father
Lord forgive me for sins I committed
But this is the way that we living
Why can't no one see my vision?
Remember the basement, remember my aunty would beat my because of the dishes
Couldn't wait to get grown, say to myself when I make it I'm gone from you bitches

Even though a nigga tryna make it out I still got love for the (ghetto)
I can't change, I was raised in the (ghetto)
Made me who I am and I love the (ghetto)
(I grew up in the ghetto)
Why they faking, why they faking?
