Testo Ghetto Child - Joe feat. Shaggy
Testo della canzone Ghetto Child (Joe feat. Shaggy), tratta dall'album Better Days
All the ghettos around the world
Dig this
Ghetto Fabulous Joe
Shaggy (All the children sing)
I'm a ghetto child
I'm a ghetto child (Check it, out)
There's a world out there that I wanna see
There's a man that I'm destined to be
I won't be stopped by the ghetto streets
I believe inside that I can't be beat
This life could be a ball and chain
If you let yourself get caught in the game
I had some friends who sold drugs for dough
But I don't intend to go down that road
Just because I'm a ghetto child
I won't live down to your expectations (No, no)
Just believe that a ghetto child
Can rise to the highest elevation (Oh)
Know that I am a ghetto child
But I can see the best in me, can you?
I'm a ghetto child
(All the ghettos around the world, dig this)
One day I'm gonna change the world
Make a better place for every boy and girl
Everyone in need, homeless families
Have a place to sleep and food to eat
I'll take every gun off the streets
So another tear won't be shed in grief
And every thug in every hood
I will make 'em change from bad to good
I believe that it can be done
Gotta start somewhere and I'm that one
All the children sing (Yeah, yeah)
All the children sing (Yeah, yeah)
Just because I'm a ghetto child
I won't live down to your expectations
Just believe that a ghetto child
Can rise to the highest elevation
Know that I am a ghetto child
But I can see the best in me, can you?
I'm a ghetto child (Ooh, yeah, ooh)
Hey, yo', look at me in a different light
Just forget, all about those stereotypes
Ain't gon' let this hood bring me down
Gonna take this life and turn it around
That's right, sky's the limit, I won't be denied
Ain't no stoppin' me, I'm a ghetto child
And at the end when it's said and done
We will all be singin' this ghetto song
I believe that it can be done (Yeah, oh)
Gotta start somewhere and I'm that one
All the children sing (Yeah, yeah)
All the children sing (Yeah, yeah)
Just because I'm a ghetto child
I won't live down to your expectations
Just believe that a ghetto child
Can rise to the highest elevation (Oh, oh, oh)
Know that I am a ghetto child
But I can see the best in me, can you
I'm a ghetto child (Let's go to church now)
Just because I'm a ghetto child (Uh)
I won't live down to your expectations (Take me to church now)
Just believe that a ghetto child (Ooh)
Can rise to the highest elevation (Hey, hey)
Know that I am a ghetto child (Ooh, yeah)
But I can see the best in me, can you?
I'm a ghetto child (Hey, ghetto child, oh-oh-ooh)
Just because I'm a ghetto child
I won't live down to your expectations (Sing a song for me)
Just believe that a ghetto child (Sing a song for me)
Can rise to the highest elevation (Everybody sing it now, yeah)
Know that I am a ghetto child
But I can see the best in me, can you? (Oh)
I'm a ghetto child (So I can see the best in me, can you?)
It's not where you're from, it's where you're gonna be (Hey)
It's not where you're from, it's where you're gonna be
