Cham - Ghetto Story (Alicia Keys Rmx) lyrics

(Alicia keys)- heres my ghetto story, story (cham)-its a survival story

been in hell through the fire, (cham)- true ghetto story

gonna take it higher

heres my survival story, story (cham)- this is my story

so many reasons to sing them, cuz(cham)- true ghetto story

now we got the kingdom

(cham)- i remember those days when hell was my home

when me and mama bed was a big piece of foam

and me 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

and make him licka breda dem kick up jerome

i remember when we visit them with pure big stone

and the boy danny pop out something wit full chrome

i remember when we run, fatta get him knee blown

and me best friend richie got two in him dome

i remember seventh avenue turn in a warzone

and mikey modda a fly him out cuz she got a loan

but, mikey go to foreign and go tun al capone

make whole heap a money and say me in our own

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

yesterday mikey call me up on mi phone

we have whole heap a extra clip cau we nuh bruk now greatly (cham)-true ghetto story

rah rah rah rah

(alicia keys)- we got the kingdom so we have to make way

we take it from the bottom to the top baby (cham)- this is my story

and now the whole community can live greatly (cham)-true ghetto story

rah rah rah rah

(alicia keys)- i remember those days when we was dead broke

and i could baraly find a, dollar for a token

hop in the train just to get where im goin

popos after me and 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

empty in my tummy

might crack a smile but

aint nothin funny

i remember playin over needles in the street

everywhere i go a man wants some part of me

dirty dirty hookers and hoes on eleventh avenue

selling bodies for dope

i remember crying saying that will never be me

gonna make it someday gotta be somebody

mommy dont worry

its just you and me

but one day we will get out of this misery

(chorus)-we get de ting-dem

dem outta luck now

me squeeze seven and the whole a dem a duck now cham)- this is my story

we have whole heap a extra clip cau we nuh bruk now(cham)- true ghetto story

rah rah rah rah

(alicia keys)- we got the kingdom so we have to make way

we take it from the bottom to the top baby (cham)- this is my story

and now the whole community can live greatly (cham)- true ghetto story

rah rah rah rah

(alicia keys)- heres my ghetto story, story

been in hell through the fire

gonna take it higher

heres my survival story, story

so many reasons to sing them, cuz
