Why Ghetto People Pray Everyday

Why ghetto people pray everyday 
There is a place where life's 
Are so in needs
This place is found so famous 
On the third worlds and so popular 
The poor the people living in this 
Places are called 
Oh what a name for a classification 
Life In the ghetto speak a lot 
About humanity 
So Now my pen bleeds again 

Why ghetto people pray everyday 
How come the greatest continent 
On planet earth 
With it endless abound ant resources
Could afford a place on it great land 
Called ghetto 
Leave me with a doubt that nothing 
Is impossible 

Why ghetto people pray everyday 
It draw my concern 
When I see the most populated 
Church goers, and other religious
Temples are more of the poor 
From the ghetto
Every day dreaming 
Every day praying 
Only for the better days 
Is no new strange thing
In the ghetto 
So I wonder how come it 
Be so if man is not of greed 

Why ghetto people pray everyday 
The root of all evil greed 
Rest on the leaders down here Africa 
Leading a lot of innocent soul
To crimes
If you want to see hells
Look alike visit the ghetto
Then say for yourself 
Why now my pen bleeds again 
Is clear life in the ghetto 
Are like the hardest life 
Existing on earth 
Which people suffer most 
Horrible style of life if not the 
So called poor in the ghetto
Now I understand 
Why ghetto people pray everyday
