Tekst :
WhooooGhetto, ghetto, ghetto, ghetto
[Chorus: Trey Songz 2X]
I m from the motherfucking slums where the cops don t come
Turn the lights on and the bugs don t run
You ain t shit without no gun
In the ghetto [ghetto]
Ghetto [ghetto]
[1st verse]
I m from where diapers full of feces
We s endangered species
Bodies lay in traffic, that s right, where the streets be
You ain t seen nothing this obscene from no TV
You would have to be me to feel what Obie s speaking
Bodies leak like steel pipes, it s real creepy
Ch-ch-ch-ha-ha-ha, Jason Vorhee s
You re boring me with your story, I m a Detroitee
Craft took my mind so the craft exploits me
[Chorus]
[2nd verse]
I got no pot to piss in, en route to prison
You don t want it with us nigga, we strapped with nitroglicerin
Our ambitions is some riders, thriving off poor decisions
A blessing nigga still living, still pimping, still visions of
Sitting in that foreign whip, whipping up cola take a lick
To my tongue, numb from the shit
My nuts hung since I was a young one
And that s just the slum fuck of it
I m pumped daddy gone but, gun in my palm
My momma can t save me her gender is wrong
On my own in this jungle that niggaz call home
What? His momma died from a lump in her D cup
Police freeze em up for serving these glucks
It s like a habitual situation, we stuck
The ritual is for niggaz to grab they nuts
And just soak all this bullshit up, where I m from?
[Chorus]
[3rd verse]
I m from real bridge cause, for niggaz living hard
Welfare scarers just most chicks ll buy them broad
Pimping the government cause government pimping us
Rather see em suffering then niggaz live it up
Cause you ain t heard? Bird got birds
But the nigga got murd cause niggaz felt he ain t deserve
What he was worth, he ain t a real nigga from the turf
He was birth with money, that s why they left him bloody
I m from the streets where most these niggaz nutty
I adapt to em, I m exactly in tuned with em
Strapped with the Mac that extract flesh from humans
Home sweet home, better known as The Ruins
[Chorus]
Whoaa!
Tekst :
You should know me by now.I ve always been straight with you.
I ve always tried to sing about the truth the way I see it,
In a mixed up world where truth is
hard to find.
I ain t no spiritual superman.
Don t always give a shiny, bright example
of what a believer ought to be.
I ain t never parted the ocean, though I really think I could
if I had the faith of a mustard seed, like the Bible says I should.
I ain t never moved a mountain, I ain t never felt that need.
But the one thing God has tought me to see...
I can have faith
A mountain of hope
I can even speak with tongues of angels
Tell you everyting I know
But it doesn t mean a thing in this world
Without a mighty love
I can be strong
I can stand tall
I can point squarely at the mountain
And command that it be gone
But it doesn t mean a thing in this world
Without a mighty love
I ain t standin no mount.
I m not tryin to preach to ya
and tell you that I ve found all the easy answers.
when half the time I can t even
find my keys.
But I feel like a regular Billy Graham
when I start talkin bout my Jesus,
and all that he s done for me.
Don t you know that I ve received forgiveness through no
effort of my own.
I ve been given so much mercy, so I ll be the last to throw a stone.
And I apologize, if you think that I m coming on too strong.
But there s just one thing I want you to know...
Tekst :
Das Wasser, war es immer da und wird es immer seinIch sitz am Rand und webe mich in jede Strömung ein
Uhlala Ein Rauschen dringt durch mich hindurch, nimmt all mein Denken ein
Es zieht an mir, ich lass es ziehen, denn alles zieht vorbei
Der Himmel der war immer da, werdens die Wolken auch sein
Ich glaube ja wie jedes Kind, die Dinger sind aus Zucker
Unsichtbare Finger zausen mir durch Kopf und Haar
Was immer auch mit mir geschieht,
geschieht zum ersten Mal
Soweit ich weiß
Teilen wir dieselbe Zeit
Ich stell mir vor ich wär ein schöner Augenblick,
Somit schick ich mich dir in dieser Sekunde, damit du fühlst wie ich, damit du fühlst
uhuhuhuhu damit du fühlst
ahahahah damit du fühlst
Uhlala
Die Erde die das Leben bringt, wie lang noch wird die sein
Ich pflanze voller Zuversicht ein Stück von dir hinein
Ich schüttle Sand von meiner Hand in eine Sanduhr rein
Die Sehnsucht nach Unsterblichkeit hängt noch an jedem Stein
Das Licht, war das schon immer da und wird es immer schein
Ich tauche abends liebend gern ins leuchtend Purpur ein
Es ziehen dort in meine Seele, alle Farben ein
Ich lass geschehen was dann geschieht,
ich misch mich nicht mehr ein
Soweit ich weiß, teilen wir dieselbe Zeit
Ich stell mir vor, ich wär ein Wunder,
somit schick ich mich dir in dieser Sekunde,
damit du fühlst wie ich, damit du fühlst...
Uhlala
uhuhuhuhu damit du fühlst
ahahahah damit du fühlst
uhuhuhuhu wie ich
ahahahah
