Gotham city for the ghetto ghetto (2x)
 
 Uhhh Yo yo! Everybody's talking
 about the good old days(2x)
 Huh I remember when me and my brothers
 we used to sit up on the poarch in the
 summertime and just talk about just making it
 You know what I'm saying being successful
 following up our dreams you know and I
 I believe that's every kids dream
 you know what I'm saying to rise and
 be somebody but damn!
 Sometimes we just get caught up
 
 
 I ain't got no money
 And I ain't got no friends
 Looks like my world is coming to an end
 No food on the table, no clothes on my back
 No shoes on my feet and
 I just bearly got a used cadillac
 Now ain't that ghetto for ya
 But somehow it's gotta change yeahh
 ghetto for ya 
 So I took this remix and 
 rearranged gotham city
 
 Chorus:
 City of love a city of peace
 for everyone of us 
 'Cause we all need it,
 can't live without it
 Gothamcity for the ghetto yeah! 
 
 
 Gotham city for the ghetto,
 that's what I'm talking 'bout
 Ghettofabulous, to a nigga health be hazardous
 If you wanna test raffiness for the respect
 S.T.R.I.N.G.S. Yes. (ohh yeah)
 Fuck the rest give me the best 
 Why should I have to settle for less
 When I could push the V-12's with finesse
 (scratching) and all that mess
 If you try to hold me back
 would I keep on strugling till I hit the sky.
 Even if you wanted to you can't deny
 Gotta feed babygirl who would die
 
 We keep talking about escalating
 Well who's gonna go first
 Guess I'll be the one to step up
 If you don't follow me it would be the worst
 Everytime something goes down
 Somebody's crying ghetto tears
 Hope I'm not raining on your parade
 But this is not what keeping it really is
 Now ain't that ghetto for ya
 But somehow it's gotta change yeahh!
 Ghetto for ya,
 So I took this remix and rearranged
 a gotham city
 
 Chorus
 
 Check it out
 Now motherfucka wanna act surprised
 'Cause you're afraid to change scared to rise
 That's why you ass get left behind
 They got a sight, they got a mind
 'Cause ain't nobody gonna stop the dream
 Talk that shit, block my cream
 Negativity you gotta let go
 Heaven gotta see for the ghetto
 
 We all need hey hey hey
 Gothamcity for the ghetto yeah
 Calling on heaven
 Send your love down, to the ghetto yeah
 Talking about a land where ohh yeah
 Where there will be no more crying,
 no more crying now oh yeah
 A place where we could all just get along yeah
 And children will sing ghetto love songs
 In a land where (city of love) 
 In a land where (for every one of us)
