Ghetto
-I was looking out the window
When I saw a mini van with rims on it
-Are you serious?
That is ghetto
-Hey we should make a ghetto meter to measure how ghetto people are
-Ok, how about:
You know you're ghetto when you put fried chicken and hot sauce in you purse when going to the movies
-Ghetto
-Yea, or when your name is Tadasha
Spelled T - A
Your named after a liquor
You feel it necessary to put two apostrophes in your name
When Bob is spelled with a H
And everybody in your family's names end with eesha
-Hey! My name is Felicia!
-Ghetto
-When you're taking out your pink weave in Walmart
-You talking about that ghetto Walmart on Main st?
-Yea, you know there was a fight up there
-Were there kinky's on the floor
-Yep
-Ghetto
-When your phone goes off in church and it sounds like this:
(Courtney sings and dances)
-Ghetto
-When a white girl walks up and says
"What's poppin home skillet"
-White
-When you only go to an open house for free food
-Or your nails look like they got into a fight with a 64 piece crayola box
-Or when your front yard consist of dirt, rocks, and a BBQ grill
-Ghetto
-Or when the rich takes money from the poor to keep them in the
Ghetto
-When new immigrants come to the land of opportunity
And we can only provide them with the
Ghetto
-Like when Germans confined Jews prior to their journey to the death camp in the
Ghetto
-A ghetto
A densely populated slum area of a city inhabited by a socially and economically deprived minority
-Cutting education and jobs keeping us a minority
-Why are there ghettos?
-Moral values have gone down the drain
When there are no opportunities left to gain
Then why must we use the ghettos name in vain
-Why did they change the definition
So that pink weave is ghetto
But deteriorating projects are not
-That being unique in your choice of name
Can deprive you of a job
Yet a segregated housing development has no meaning
-Connotation twisted
Denotation ignored
-What has happened?
-Manipulating the minority
-Creating ignorance amongst each other
-Ghetto is now a compliment
-Laughing and saying
“Girl you so ghetto”
Is more than accepted
-It’s welcomed
