Testo Children Of The Ghetto

Children of the ghetto hold on to your dreams
never let go no matter how hard it seems
children of the ghetto hold on to your dreams
never let go no matter how hard it seems

only thing you see more than broken bottles is
broken spirits broken promises
see the child with his hand out open palm
hes from a broken home cause his father gone
said he rather leave a broken home
then to stay and be broke at home
mother gone too mentally, her mind aint strong
so the child literally on his own
type of stuff rip a kid apart at the seams
to many broken hearts to many broken dreams
i see your tears i hear your screams
i feel your pain i share your dreams

children of the ghetto hold on to your dreams
never let go no matter how hard it seems
children of the ghetto hold on to your dreams
never let go no matter how hard it seems
you stuck in a cycle of deju-vu
still doing the things we all used to do
definition of insane is doing the same thing
expecting different results it aint that difficult
you making it harder then it got to be
you playing trivia you should be playing monopoly
every time i see you with a bunch of friends i see you drunk again
complaining but you dont want to win
i can offer you help but i cant make you accept
and i cant do it for you you got to do for self
i stand with the strong sympathize with the weak
or i can stand alone prophetsize on this beat
or i can stand aside wipe your eyes as you weap
or you can stand up and we both leave these streets

children of the ghetto holed on to your dreams
never let go no matter how hard it seems

children of the ghetto holed on to your dreams
never let go no matter how hard it seems

"cant miss what you never had and thats the problem
if you always hungry you trying to keep from starvin
reach for the top and as you get farther
ask yourself do you really miss the bottom

cant miss what you never had and thats the problem
if you always hungry you trying to keep from starvin
reach for the top and as you get farther
ask yourself do you really miss the bottom"
