Every Ghetto, Every City

Lauryn Hill

I was just a little girl
Skinny legs, a press and curl
My mother always thought I'd be a star
But way before the record deal
The streets that nurtured lauryn hill
Made sure that I never got too far
Every ghetto, every city, and suburban place I've been
Make me recall my days in the new jerusalem
Story starts at hootaville
Grew up next to ivy hill
When kids were stealing quartervilles for fun
Kill the guy, in carter park
Rode a mongoose 'til it's dark
Watching kids show off the stolen ones
Every ghetto, every city, and suburban place I've been
Make me recall my days in the new jerusalem

You know it's hot, don't forget what you've got
Looking back
Looking back, looking back, looking back
You know it's hot, don't forget what you've got
Looking back
Looking back, looking back, looking back
Looking back, looking back, looking back

A bag of bontons, twenty cents and a nickel
Springfield ave. Had the best popsicles
Saturday morning cartoons and kung-fu
Main street roots tonic with the dreds
A beef patty and some coco bread
Move the patch from my lees to the tongue of my shoe
'Member frelng-huysen used to have the bomb leather
Back when doug fresh and slick rick were together
Looking at the crew, we thought we'd all live forever

You know it's hot, don't forget what you've got
Looking back
Looking back, looking back, looking back
You know it's hot, don't forget what you've got
Looking back
Looking back, looking back, looking back
Looking back, looking back, looking back

Drill teams on munn street
Remember when hawthorne and chancellor had beef
Moving records was on central ave.
I was there at dancing school
South orange ave. At borlin pool
Unaware of what we didn't have
Writing my friends names on my jeans with a marker
July 4th races outside parker
Fireworks at martin stadium
The untouchable psp where all them crazy niggaz be
And car thieves got away through irvington
Hillside brings beef with the cops
Self destruction record drops
And everybody's name was muslim
Sensations and 88 attracted kids from out of state
And everybody used to do the wop
Jack, jack, jack ya body
Nah the biz mark used to amp up the party
I wish those days they didn't stop
Every ghetto, every city, and suburban place I've been
Make me recall my days in the new jerusalem

You know it's hot, don't forget what you've got
Looking back
Looking back, looking back, looking back
You know it's hot, don't forget what you've got
Looking back
Looking back, looking back, looking back
Looking back, looking back, looking back

Lookin back looking back looking back
