It was just another day in the ghetto, where a young black boy wanted to
Pray to the devil so he strayed to the metal
Just trying to make a statement because he lacked faith
But instead, he was shot by another black face
Another day in the ghetto,
Where this young black girl was being ignored by her mother
So she ran to her brothers
Raped and molest, turned her pity into fear
A good girl gone bad which kept the city in queer
Another day in the ghetto
Police slacked around in a city so corrupt black bodies being found
More coffins in the ground, this isn’t a safe place
This is the very same city of the president’s stake
Another day in the ghetto where Kids turning bids
Forming a new triple K, that’s *K*ids *K*illing *K*ids
Prisons shred data of black men in our dead times
When I read the morning paper this was on the headlines…

Can’t you see what’s going on in our community?
Can’t you see they know what’s wrong of you & me?
Can’t you see that we’re in need for more unity?
So many Black kids getting killed before puberty

Can’t you see what’s going on in our community?
Can’t you see they know the wrong's of you & me?

Well I guess we were born in the vapors
Because this is how it is when we read the morning papers

It was just another day in the ghetto
Where we all seen the news of a black robbery of a teen & his shoes
No witnesses or clues of him murdered to death
We rather take from someone else than to earn it ourselves
Another day in the ghetto
Where women show their flesh prostitution unattested
Exchanging money over sex
Real dignity is less prevalent to stand
Without the strength inside our women shit we don’t have a chance
Just another day in the ghetto
Where the Arabic’s own every liquor store known
In a city over thrown
Living in the outer zone, scheming for rich
They like to cater to our struggles like a demon in trenches
Another day in the ghetto
Where the mayor doesn’t care
Of these black homicide’s
You know it wasn’t fair
How the city let it ride black people in our dead times
When I read the morning paper this was on the headlines

Can’t you see what’s going on in our community?
Can’t you see they know the wrong's of you & me?
Can’t you see that we’re in need for more unity?
So many Black kids getting killed before puberty

Can’t you see what’s going on in our community?
Can’t you see they know the wrong's of you & me?

Well I guess we were born in the vapors
Because this is how it is when we read the morning papers

It was just another day in the ghetto
Where a Segregated scape divided people of their race
Not a unified place, only mortified hate,
A swivel heightened terror
It’s like our city still living in the civil rights era
Another day in the ghetto
Where the politician's throb
Over citizens living more people losing jobs
More evil through the mobs
The rich will depend on it
City is corrupt and the politicians in on it
A day in the ghetto where the murder rate
Increase chalk lines in the streets
He caught nine rests in peace,
Funerals getting steep, they become a war zone
While the churches be deplete, we have so many more gone
Another day in the ghetto
Where the blacks undermine,
We have to take our city back
Even if it means crime, formulate a new gang
Exchanging every deadline looking though this paper I'm influenced by this headline

Can’t you see what’s going on in our community?
Can’t you see they know the wrong's of you & me?
Can’t you see that we’re in need for more unity?
So many Black kids getting killed before puberty

Can’t you see what’s going on in our community?
Can’t you see they know the wrong's of you & me?

Well I guess we overcame all the vapors
Because this is how we changed the daily morning papers

Can’t you see what’s going on in our community?
Can’t you see they know the wrong's of you & me?
Can’t you see that we’re in need for more unity?
So many Black kids getting killed before puberty

Can’t you see what’s going on in our community?
Can’t you see they know the wrong's of you & me?

Well I guess we overcame all the vapors
Because this is how we changed the daily morning papers
