[Intro]

Hold on, oh yeah, hold on


[Snow]

Now back in the days, hangin' out with the boys

The ghetto youths be willin', pulling out gat's for toys

Idrin be running wild, Dreadlocks be juggling

Brothers is getting paid, while mother's still struggling


[Hook: Half Pint]

(Damn, how I like that sound)

Pump, pump, pump, taste the ghetto round

A P 9 got found spreadin' the death strong sound (X4)


[Snow]

See the ghetto government loves it, we na like it at all

And when the youth them try to stride, I meet boy they a fall

For the richer gettin' richer, the poor man get poor

For anything I ask, I just ask help them, oh Lord

The pain in my heart to the feelin' that I'm feelin' oh, so real

Playing soccer in the glass and using ball made of steel

No shoes pan them feet, burnin' fire as their light, you think it's no deal

Ask a starving sickle youth when he's going to get his next meal


[Hook: Half Pint]

(Damn, how I like that sound)

Pump, pump, pump taste the ghetto round

A P 9 got found spreadin' the death strong sound (x4)


[Snow]

The ghetto is so suppressed, the projects are a mess

Children don't have a childhood, please Jah, Jah, won't you bless

I can sing about happiness, I can sing about joy

But the pain is all so real, for my little ghetto boy


[Hook: Half Pint]

(Damn, how I like that sound)

Pump, pump, pump taste the ghetto round

A P 9 got found spreadin' the death strong sound (x3)
