I Wonder If Heaven Got A Ghetto Lyrics

    [Chorus: I wonder if heaven got a ghetto (4X)]

    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 til 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

    [Chorus]

    [Verse Two: 2Pac]

    Here on Earth, tell me what's a blick 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 the, 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

    [Chorus]

    [Verse Three: 2Pac]

    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 ne-gro
    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

    [Chorus (to :27 from fade)]

    Just think, if niggaz decide to retaliate
    (Soldier in the house)
    I wonder if heaven got a ghetto [4X to fade]
