Kelis - Ghetto Children lyrics
Wake up Wake up Ghetto Children Wake up Wake up Ghetto Children Ghetto Boy You’re my life And there’s so much for you to protect and to say And baby boy Don’t hit your wife Cause your kids may grow up someday to be this way You don’t know What you may be To some boy In society There’s a secret to why You must survive So listen to what we say Cause this type of shit happens everyday Go for yours cause dreams come true And this is the message we bring to you Hey now hey now now Hey now hey now now No matter what teachers say to you Ghetto Children are beautiful Say hey now hey now now Hey now hey now now Baby Girl You’re my life It’s important that you smile And never cry Study math and your sciences Maybe you’ll figure why we subtract and multiply You don’t know What you may be To some girl In society There’s a secret to why we must survive So listen to what we say Cause this type of shit happens everyday Go for yours cause dreams come true And this is the message we bring to you Hey now hey now now Hey now hey now now No matter what teachers say to you Ghetto Children are beautiful Say hey now hey now now Hey now hey now now Crack Town Ghetto in the city Buildings are abandoned The girls are still pretty A child looks in the mirror Here to see my life clearer All I see is ghetto keys to this jet black carrera Of course 911 don’t mean help The only ones that need help is them sons without wealth It’s apparent that this nation They don’t know what they facin Young natural born killers And these street corner masons You want that type of money That you see in a mob flick Would you stash it your wallet? Yes with the lumps under my carpet Listen to your heart Why should I listen to you? I was here from the start But you don’t bring no money through Look I only fill capes And to get it I kill jakes By the time I’m 21 I’ll be the ghetto bill gates You were born to be an angel That it was in my brain too Now the only star spangled Is coming outta my bangle Now that I’m out (ghetto ghetto boy) It’s like the whole world blames you Although the ghetto’s nothing like the conclusion I came to Your friends ill you claimin both sides (ghetto ghetto girl) Now they don’t claim you Ghetto Children change the world Don’t let it change you Go for yours cause dreams come true And this is the message we bring to you Hey now hey now now Hey now hey now now No matter what teachers say to you Ghetto Children are beautiful Say hey now hey now now Hey now hey now now Go for yours cause dreams come true And this is the message we bring to you Hey now hey now now Hey now hey now now No matter what teachers say to you Ghetto Children are beautiful Say hey now hey now now Hey now hey now now Little children the ones that caught up The whole world wants to be a part of A little ghetto thang A little ghetto thang (to fade |
