Ghetto Boy

Ghetto boy Ghetto boy born Ghetto boy live From grass to grace Ghetto boy grow Ghetto boy survived The ghetto never die Ghetto boy Born in the ghetto Grew in the streets Initiated by the brotherhood Blended by the game Spiritualised in Christianity Survived the hard life and left for my future My blessings of life is dedicated to the ghetto Cos every beginning always matter You can't take away the ghetto from the soul Even when you are out of the ghetto The ghetto never leaves you So despite the long distances Home is always a blessing To never let die Ghetto boy born Ghetto boy live From grass to grace Ghetto boy grow Ghetto boy survived The ghetto never die Ghetto boy Silver or gold was absence On my birthday Yet I grow to catch more worth in life I grow to catch more values of my star It doesn't matter were I was born It doesn't matter if my father is rich or poor It doesn't matter how hard is the ghetto It doesn't matter the obstacles in the ghetto It doesn't matter what I can't or can afford God is the king maker He honoured my star From grass to grace He allowed me to pass the seasons Of life and am still on it I love the ghetto despite my absence Home is always a blessing So I never degrade the ghetto Cos am a Ghetto boy Ghetto boy born Ghetto boy live From grass to grace Ghetto boy grow Ghetto boy survived The ghetto never die
