Ghetto Child
Ghetto child
We dont need alot to be happy
We are not who you think we are
We are not poor
We are the happiness people in the world
Come to Africa and dance to the sun
If you are lonely
Despite the ignorance
We are not perfect
We dont want to be either
We just want to live and
let the world Breath
Ghetto child
We can make it
Despite the failed leadership
In Africa
Am happy the world
Knows we exist
Am glad am a child of the universe
Growth is limitless for the willing mind
Our mind is invisible
Despite our visible ghetto
Am happy the world knows
We exist
Am glad am a child of the universe
