The Gospel

I said we're all God's children, products of the ghettoMomma cooked the soup, daddy did the yellingUncle was a drunk, cousin was a felonWhen he got pinched, he told them he wasn't tellin'Auntie was a cook, her husband was a crookCause every job he had they be payin' him off the booksGhetto University, knowledge is all it tookIn the tenement I was listenin' to the hookChange gon' come, the spirit of Sam CookeWhen the Feds coming, everybody be shookNow we doing life like Eddie Murphy and MartinOn the chain gang, I was singing into the coffin

The roaches and the rats, heroin and the craspCouldn't blame me, I'm just giving the factsI'm tryna hit the top, the bottom ain't where it's atEverybody got a path but you can never go back

Oh, oh, oh, ohOh, oh, oh, ohSing yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahSing yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahSing yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahSing yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

I'm telling you like it is, how we ever gon' live?If we ain't gettin' money, how we feedin' the kids?It's a revolving door, when brothers be doing bidsI know it sounds wrong but the dope'll be what it isSurvival of the fittest, this poor girl the illestBroke mirrors and black cats give me heebie-geebiesLife seems hard, nothing ever come easyWhatever in the dark won't always become the lightIf you ain't in the battle, how you gon' win the fight?I gotta speak the truth when I'm up in the boothThe streets be flyin' birds but they don't be on the roofPoverty is a pain like you pulling a toothTold the streets don't let me go like I'm Bishop in Juice

The roaches and the rats, heroin in the cracksCouldn't blame me, I'm just giving the factsI'm tryna hit the top, the bottom ain't where it's atEverybody got a path but you can never go back

Oh, oh, oh, ohOh, oh, oh, ohYeah, yeah, yeah, yeah(Sing)Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeahYeah, yeah, yeah, yeah(Gotta sing)Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
