Ghetto Classics Lyrics


War, we at war, we at war
We at war, we at
Gimme my rifle, gimme my rifle
Gimme my rifle, gimme my rifleLet's get this motherfucker back crunk
This is gonna be me and my niggas
We're holdin' triggers in our back bump
To take back what we once had
We don't give a damn about the enemies
Send they out to BaghdadThey put a nigga on the front line
But when it come to gettin' ahead
They put ya way behind
And they supports in minimum wage
They don't give a choice to niggas
They thinkin' we still slavesEvery nigga's got some thug in him
Every nigga's got some love in him
Every nigga's got a grudge in him
Every nigga's got a mug in him
And every nigga busts a slug in himNow like a cat, bitch, we'll skin 'em

Y'all niggas ain't holdin' my venom
Check yourself, I'ma drop your ass off, bitch
As soon as I loosen my motherfuckin' beltOne for the money, two for the thugs
Three for the projects, four for the love
[Incomprehensible]
And if ya moving too fast they'll get ya caught up likeOoh, them ghetto classics ghetto, ghetto classics, ghetto
Them ghetto classics, ghetto, ghetto classics
Time for us to find just a little piece of mind
Talkin' 'bout them ghetto classics, ghetto, ghetto classicsWe just black people gone and lost our mind
We just really trying to draw the line
Open up our eyes, before we get left behind
Let me tell you something about hard timesBefore we used to walk, before we had life in the dry
And 911 wasn't known outside
We didn't know how to read, we didn't know how to write
All we did was sing all day and all nightThen when they let us start learning, you all lose y'all mind
And y'all forgot about the earlier times
When Martin Luther King had a dream
That one day we'd walk together, we really need to get it togetherKids stay in school, learn all you can
Graduate, go to college, get knowledge
Then we shall overcome, yes, we can, we
In the urge of faith we can demand it for realOne for the money, two for the thugs
Three for the projects, four for the love
[Incomprehensible]
And if ya moving too fast they'll get ya caught up likeOoh, them ghetto classics ghetto, ghetto classics, ghetto
Them ghetto classics, ghetto, ghetto classics
Time for us to find just a little piece of mind
Talkin' 'bout them ghetto classics, ghetto, ghetto classicsOne, two, three, four
What the hell are we fighting for?
Passing off, relationship's done what spore
That's why they got the doorMore time, hoot hoot, aim aim, shoot shoot
Ain't nothing but the young kids, they recruit
It's a wonder they don't come home in they suitI took away some time
Thinkin' how I could, should, would be
If everybody in the world was free
No crime, nobody doing wrongEverybody getting along but when I step into reality
This world is sore and that's why we at war
Killin' ourselves over bullshit that we valued more than life
Y'all people better to get right, 'causeOne for the money, two for the thugs
Three for the projects, four for the love
[Incomprehensible]
And if ya moving too fast they'll get ya caught up likeOoh, them ghetto classics, ghetto, ghetto classics, ghetto
Them ghetto classics, ghetto, ghetto classics
Time for us to find just a little piece of mind
Talkin' 'bout them ghetto classics, ghetto, ghetto classics

The Ying Yang Twins are a crunk rap duo from Atlanta, Georgia consisting of Eric "Kaine" Jackson and Deongelo "D-Roc" Holmes. They are best known for being featured on Lil Jon & The East Side Boyz hit single Get Low which reached #1 on the Billboard 100. After forming in 2000 they released their debut album Thug Walkin' the same year and followed this with 2002's Alley: The Return of the Ying Yang Twins, 2003's Me & My Brother, 2005's U.S.A. (United State of Atlanta), 2006's Chemically Imbalanced and 2009's Ying Yang Forever.

They first came to notice in 2000 with the single "Whistle While You Twurk" which got play on urban and pop radio stations and peaked at #16 on the US R&B/Hip-Hop chart. Their full-length debut album, Thug Walkin', came out later that year. Their next album, Alley: The Return of the Ying Yang Twins (2002) failed to sell 500,000 units and they didn't really achieve popularity until they collaborated with the self-styled "King of Crunk" Lil Jon on his 2002 single "Get Low". The song was a huge club and radio hit and the duo subsequently signed a deal with TVT Records.

Their first album for the label, Me & My Brother was certified platinum on April 12, 2005[1] and yielded three more hits — "Whats Happnin!", "Naggin'" and the popular Lil Jon collaboration "Salt Shaker". The same year the duo appeared on Britney Spears' album In the Zone and her television special of the same name. In 2004, TVT released My Brother & Me, an album composed largely of remixes which featured a bonus DVD of the group's videos. A new album U.S.A. (United State of Atlanta) appeared in the summer of 2005 as its singles "Wait (The Whisper Song)", "Badd", and "Shake" were dominating urban radio, and U.S.A. (Still United), a collection of outtakes, remixes, and collaborations similar to My Brother & Me followed in December 2005. It too was accompanied by a DVD featuring music videos and other footage from the U.S.A. (United State of Atlanta) period.

The group's fifth album Chemically Imbalanced was released in November 2006. For this album the Twins collaborated with producers Wyclef Jean and Jerry 'Wonder' Duplessis in addition to Mr. Collipark (who produced a majority of the songs on the group's previous albums). The first two singles were the Hall & Oates-sampling "Dangerous", featuring Wyclef Jean, and "Jigglin'".

They have both parted ways with Mr. Collipark after their last album, Chemically Imbalanced, and their future albums will not be distributed through TVT Records. They have also planned to work on their own record label and artists. D-Roc owns Punnn!!! Entertainmnet with Da Muzicians and Nue Breed as the first two duo signees. Kaine owns EA Productions, and has his group Hard Boyz, as well as Countrie Biggz, Geeskie, and Kuzin Big Boyy. Kaine also plans on releasing a solo album in the near future.
