Lyrics

Droppin' gems for the people that struggle to keep it legal If they don't want truth, I dust the dirt off my shoes Hard to face it but it's so clear No use to speaking words if they're just going to fall on dead ears No use to trying to reason with a fool, yeah I've been there Hoping that a change of heart appears out of thin air No use Lessons learned from my mom If folks don't mean you good then they probably mean you harm Used to clap back but maturity made me strong Now I'm calm when they open they palm to throw them stones, its No use So Imma do what I do If they don't want truth, I dust the dirt of my shoes The ones that claim to see is the ones that's most confused The righteously arrogant they missing a lot of clues, but They don't see it I promise that I do Single momma's raising kids and send them to ghetto schools Crackheads come around they giving you ghetto news Sitting on the front porch just singing these ghetto blues When you still depend upon A dad sits and he cries Looking at his kids thinking of a way to survive The rent is due and he's in between jobs Down to his last $20 and his back against the wall A few people told him pull his self-up by his boot straps He ain't got boots Tell me what he supposed to do with that The world is cold The poor never get a pass Everytime you move forward people try to pull you back So we sing these ghetto blues and we spitting ghetto raps, facts You gotta decide what type of person you gone be You gone be the type of person that get's knocked down and stay down Or you gone be the type of person that get back up and fight Let's go These ghetto blues, ghetto chronicals Soundtrack for the streets dudes and the prodigals (aye) They don't get it it's illogical Never would've made it Marvin Sapp now it's possible (aye) Small faith astronomical Even in the crunch like abdominals Affects like domino's Some call it phenomenal Some call it impossible Hustle game is remarkable (remarkable) Aye Dropping gems for the people That struggle to keep it legal That struggle to keep it peaceful 'Cause it can be real deceitful Here's something I dont trust The mouth of a politician thats standing under the steeple I don't wanna be associated with the liberals I don't wanna be associated with conservatives Cherry pick the scriptures and they water down the gospel Strip away the purity and fill it with preservatives Feel the turbulence followed by the nervousness Power to the people we determine it If you gone do it, then do it But you determine if You really gone pursue it, pursue it Like it's your only wish Some be the phoniest Life can be the loneliest Pretending you relate but you don't that be the corniest Mind state is permanent Keep your head to the firmament We just warming up so buckle up for the tournament Ghetto blues
