The Ghetto

In the ghetto, danger looms With Latin Kings and Skin Heads consumed By power struggles and endless fights Over turf and gold, both wrong and right The Crips and Bloods, they join the fray So the thugs and potheads can't get away From the beat street where they all collide At a singles orgy meet they try to hide They get illegal drugs by healthcare OTC And hear gunshots by pigs killin’ black men like me Dodging knives and rivals outside, they try to survive Against gang spies and republican lies Old school pimps and punks abound But you’ll stink like a skunk hanging with wimps around Live in Las Vegas, from Alpha to Omega But the danger of the ghetto has no moral dilemma.
