2:23:03
I'm not saying what I did
was all right
2:23:07
Tryin' to break out of the ghetto
was a day-to-day fight
2:23:11
Been down so long gettin' up
didn't cross my mind
2:23:15
But I knew there was a better way of life
and I was just trying to find
2:23:20
But you don't what you'll do
until you're put under pressure
2:23:24
Across 110th Street
is a hell of a tester
2:23:28
Across 110th Street
2:23:31
Pimps trying to catch
a woman that's weak
2:23:36
Across 110th Street
2:23:40
Pushers won't let
the junkie go free
2:23:44
Across 110th Street
2:23:49
Woman tryin' to catch
a trick on the street
2:23:52
Ooh, baby
Across 110th Street
2:23:58
You can find it all
in the street
2:24:05
Ooh
2:24:08
Ooh-ooh-ooh, ooh-ooh-ooh
Oh-oh-oh, ah
2:24:16
I got one more thing I'd like to talk
to y'all about right now
2:24:22
Hey, brother
There's a better way out
2:24:26
Snorting that coke, shooting that dope
Man, you're copping out
2:24:30
Take my advice
It's either live or die
2:24:34
You got to be strong
if you want to survive
2:24:38
The family
on the other side of town
2:24:42
Will catch hell
without a ghetto around
2:24:47
In every city you find
the same thing going down
2:24:51
Harlem is the capital
of every ghetto town
2:24:54
Let me sing it
Across 110th Street
2:24:59
Pimps tryin' to catch
a woman that's weak
