Ghetto Name

I live in a place that many call a "HOME" 
Get straight up pissed when they are taken away from their comfort "ZONE" 
Some so filled with pain and feel so "ALONE" 
keep to themselves they stay unbreakable they don't their hurt be "SHOWN" 
But yet they show the anger they've hid within they let it be "KNOWN" 
And the blood shed upon the white t's bless the homies, they now "GON" 

GHETTO NAME... 
A name i go by in the "STREETS" 
I gotta be "HOOD" in order to lay down a few "BEATS???" 
Got to have a "GHETTO NAME" to be able to be "HEARD" in order for you to listen to the words i so calmly "SPEAK" 
And even tho i have a flow that will make you go "WEAK" 
That's not what you care to "SEE" 

I live in a neighborhood where cracks around the "BEND" 
where the nike's and the jordan's hang in memories of our "FRIENDS" 
where the tears have "SHED" 
where the pain still lives and we bust our ass we gotta fam to get "FED" 
And we walk with our heads to the sky smiling back at those who've we lost "INSTEAD" 
Put flowers on the graves in memory of those who passed and we wont "FORGET" 

GHETTO NAME...

And even tho i have a flow that will make you go "WEAK" 
Thats not what you care to "SEE" 

I must of missed the part where i had to have a poetical name to be "RESPECTED" 
Its just a name but i have a new year "RESURECTION" 
This game that's been played I've "INSPECTED" 
Every dialog that's been written i have "DISECTED" 
And i took a deep breath and took it all in and let it all "DIGEST" 
And im not walking away this time; The pain i will no longer "NEGLECT"
