MASTER P LYRICS - Ghetto in the Sky

"Ghetto in the Sky"



It's like my adversaries plottin on my death

But I put my life in God's hands, y'know

I'm thugged out for life, I'm a ghetto nigga for life

and uhh.. I ain't runnin from no problems

I'm just, tryin to be stress free y'know

Sometimes you just gotta sit back and uhh..

hit that sess and let it just marinate y'know

Get away, ya heard me?



My soldiers roll with me

To a place, where we all,

can just get away

Is there a ghetto in the sky? Is there a ghetto in the sky?

My soldiers roll with me

To a place, where we all,

can just get away

Is there a ghetto in the sky? Is there a ghetto in the sky?



How many tears is momma gon' cry, how many caskets she gon' buy

til we all gon' realize that we all was born to die

Niggaz standin on corners, just to scheme and plot

Niggaz killin up each other, for grams of rock

Subconcious all of my wrongdoing that's why I pack a long gun

Niggaz fightin everyday, til death be the outcome

I got a foot in the grave and uhh, one in the pen

Homies wishin of a better life but it's blowin in the wind

And I was cursed since birth cause I was born in the project

Raised on powdered milk government cheese, eggs and a county check

I hustled in hallways with no lights

Hopin I could make it through the days and live through the nights



My soldiers roll with me

To a place, where we all,

can just get away

Is there a ghetto in the sky? Is there a ghetto in the sky?

My soldiers roll with me

To a place, where we all,

can just get away

Is there a ghetto in the sky? Is there a ghetto in the sky?



They nailed Jesus to the cross, put my people on dope

I don't know a nigga in the project, that own a plane or a boat

See society got me fed up (fed up)

Brought us over here, to misled us

I gotta, troublesome mind, I gotta, troublesome soul

I been in and out of jail on probation and parole

And when I really die is they gon' steal my gold teeth?

Now who's the real animal - dem or me?

And if you ready for me Lord, and I'm the, next contender

I'm tryin to change my life, see I don't wanna die a sinner

And do the - police, really protect and serve?

Then why it ain't no crack houses, in the suburbs?



My soldiers roll with me

To a place, where we all,

can just get away

Is there a ghetto in the sky? Is there a ghetto in the sky?

My soldiers roll with me

To a place, where we all,

can just get away

Is there a ghetto in the sky? Is there a ghetto in the sky?



My soldiers roll with me

To a place, where we all,

can just get away

Is there a ghetto in the sky? Is there a ghetto in the sky?

My soldiers roll with me

To a place, where we all,

can just get away

Is there a ghetto in the sky? Is there a ghetto in the sky?



Is there really a place where uhh

ain't no fightin, ain't no killin, ain't no backstabbin

Ain't no friends turnin against each other

Ain't no racism, ain't no hate

Sound like heaven to me, huh

It's hard to find
