Heres my ghetto story (story)

Been in hell through the fire

Now we gonna take it higher

Heres my survival story (story)

So many reasons to sing this 

Now we got the keys to the kingdom

I remember those days when hell was my home

When Me and Mama bed was a big piece a foam

An mi never like bathe and my hair never comb

When Mama gone a work me go street go roam

I remember when Danny dem take me snow cone

An make him licke bredda dem kick up Jerome

I remember when we visit dem wid pure big stone

An the boy Danny pop out something weh full chrome I remember when we run Fatta get him knee blown

An mi best friend Richie get, two inna him dome

I remember so the avenue tun inna war zone

An Mickey madda fly him out, cuz she get a loan

But, Mickey go to foreign and go tun Al Capone

Mek whole heap a money and seen in our own

Now a we a lock the city and, that is well known

Yesterday Mikey call me pan mi phone

Me say Mikey.....



We get da kingdom

Dem outta luck now

Mi squeeze seven and the whole a dem a dont no

We have whole heap a extra clip cau we nuh broke no

Rah..Rah..Rah..Rah



Alicia:

We got the kingdom so we got to make way

We take it from the bottom to the top baby

And now the whole community can live greatly

Rah..Rah..Rah..Rah



I remember those days when we was dead broken

I could barely find a dollar for a token

Hop in the train to just get where im going

Hobos after me, runnin like im smokin'

Remember those days when I went to bed hungry

All I ever ate was white rice and honey

Big dreams in my head emptied my tummy

Might crack a smile but aint nothin funny



I remember playin over needles in the streets

Everywhere I go I member some part of me

Dirty dortitos hookas and hoes on 11th avenue

sellin bodies for doh

Remember cryin sayin that will never be me

Gonna make it someday gonna be somebody

Say mommy don't a reed dis just u and me 

One day we will get out of this misery

We have whole heap a extra clip cau we nuh broke no
