The Ghetto

Location

Let me introduce you to my world. You may think you know what it is but i can assure you you're wrong. See i live in the ghetto, and by definition that means a building damned near condemned but that not where i live. I live in the ghetto. A society where everybody bands together to make the best out of what you may call the worst. I live where weakness is not an option and success is rarely seen. I live in the ghetto. Where drug dealers and gansta's stand on the block cookin' and sellin' that crack rock. Doesnt sound too ideal does it? i live in the ghetto. Where everybody knows everybody and at heart were all good people , but others don't see that. When you come from the hood you tend to be misunderstood they label you as "BAD" before you even do good. I live in the ghetto and i feel like i shouldn't i could change my life i would but then again who wouldn't?
