I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto   I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto   I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto   I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto      I was raised, the little young nigga doin' bad shit   Talk much shit, 'cause I never had shit   I could remember being whupped in class   And if I didn't pass, mama whupped my ass      Was it my fault, papa didn't plan it out   Broke out left me to be the man of the house   I couldn't take it, had to make a profit   Down the block, got a glock and I clock grip      Makin G's was my mission   Movin' enough of this shit to get my mama out the kitchen   And why must I sock a fella,   Just to live large like Rockefeller      First you didn't give a fuck but you're learnin' now   If you don't respect the town then we'll burn you down   God damn it's a motherfuckin' riot   Black people only hate police so don't try it      If you're not from the town then don't pass through   'Cause some O.G. fools might blast you   It ain't right but it's long overdue   We can't have peace till the niggaz get a piece too      I want G's so you label me a criminal   And if I die, I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto      I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto   I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto   I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto   I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto      Here on Earth, tell me what's a black life worth   A bottle of juice is no excuse, the truth hurts   And even when you take the shit   Move counties, get a lawyer, you can shake the shit      Ask Rodney, LaTasha, and many more   It's been goin' on for years, there's plenty more   When they ask me, when will the violence cease?   When your troops stop shootin' niggaz down in the street      Niggaz had enough time to make a difference   Bear witness, own our own business   Word to God, 'cause it's hard tryin' to make ends meet   First we couldn't afford shit now everything's free      So we loot, please don't shoot when you see   I'm takin' from them 'cause for years they would take it from me   Now the tables have turned around   You didn't listen, until the niggaz burned it down      And now Bush can't stop the hit   Predicted the shit, in 2Pacalypse   And for once I was down with niggaz, felt good   In the hood bein' around the niggaz, yeah      And for the first time everybody let go   And the streets is death row   I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto      I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto   I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto   I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto   I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto      I see no changes, all I see is racist faces   Misplaced hate makes disgrace to races   We under, I wonder what it take to make this   One better place, let's erase the wait state      Take the evil out the people, they'll be acting right   'Cause both black and white are smokin' crack tonight   And only time we deal is when we kill each other   It takes skill to be real, time to heal each other      And though it seems Heaven-sent   We ain't ready to have a black President, huh   It ain't a secret don't conceal the fact   The penitentiary's packed and it's filled with blacks      I wake up in the morning and I ask myself   Is life worth living, should I blast myself   I'm tired of being poor and even worse I'm black   My stomach hurts so I'm lookin' for a purse to snatch      Cops give a damn about a negro   Pull a trigger, kill a nigger, he's a hero   Mo' nigga, mo' nigga, mo' niggaz   I'd rather be dead than a po' nigga      Let the Lord judge the criminals   If I die, I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto      I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto   I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto   And I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto   I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto      I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto   I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto   I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto   Just think, if niggaz decide to retaliate   Soldier in the house      I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto   I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto   I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto   I wonder if Heaven got a ghetto
