Ghetto Ghetto
Will.I.Am · #willpower [2013]
feat. Baby Kaely
Ghetto, ghetto, all my life
I've been, I've been praying for you
Alleluia
Lord save these children
It is easiest one, two, three
I wanna be with on TV
And if that's wrong please don't blame me
'Cause where we live we have nothing
In the ghetto, ghetto, ghetto
In the ghetto, ghetto, ghetto
Little kid's growing up without no education
Mums are drunks 'cause that is all that is medication
Nobody is home, but they ain't no vocation
But they left the kids alone watching the TV station
What's wrong with the paction bleese, someone gave me the ifos
Then we wonder how the girls grow up to be dancers
Then we wonder how the boys grow up to be dealers
And then be angry how the whole world are ready to be killers
Hi, I only start there's no doubt no problem
How we led our little children when is turning to gabbles
How we got the mood, killing instead of rubbing
We need a plan a little seek to prevent the murbin
Why we don't teach them the signs to reach for the stars
'Cause they can be the fire when the future worst and worse
Don't wanna looking in the past and covering with scars
They need a path, of the ghetto, ghetto, hello
It is easiest one, two, three
I wanna be with on TV
And if that's wrong please don't blame me
'Cause where we live we have nothing
In the ghetto, ghetto, ghetto
In the ghetto, ghetto, ghetto
Little boy got a dream to be a ball player
'Cause little homie when they grow wanna be harm slayer
Loli missing, when they grow wanna be a mother haller
While your mama is home just drinking all the bottle
Hey, how comedy, when I grow wanna be a consuming
Sinner then, a governor, I may a politician mean
Prolly 'cause the politician and ain't keep on tricking 'em
Promise that we'll fixing it, but they really fix in air
Hey, that swather won't be like me, like gigolo
Like Big and Miky Henri
Every day and they got all in the emergency
But the powers that be don't emergency
That's why you see killer, that's why you see crime
That's you see the homies in the prison to end up
That's why you the crack, that's why you see the black strap
Put no access in the ghetto, ghetto, ghetto
It is easiest one, two, three
I wanna be with on TV
And if that's wrong please don't blame me
'Cause where we live we have nothing
In the ghetto, ghetto, ghetto
In the ghetto, ghetto, ghetto
It is easiest one, two, three
(Aha)
I wanna be with on TV
(You see)
And if that's wrong please don't blame me
'Cause where we live we have nothing
In the ghetto, ghetto, ghetto
In the ghetto, ghetto, ghetto
Ghetto,ghetto all life
I've been, I've been praying for you
Alleluia
Lord, save these children.
