Ghetto Children
Kelis Song Lyrics
(feat. Marc Dorsey & N.E.R.D.) (N.E.R.D.) Yo, wake up, wake up Ghetto children Wake up, wake up Ghetto children Wake up, wake up Ghetto children Wake up, wake up Ghetto children Wake up, wake up Hey, hey (Marc Dorsey (Kelis)) You're a ghetto boy You're my life And there's so much for you to protect and to save And baby boy don't hit your wife Cause your kids may grow up someday to be this way, yeah You don't know what you may be To some boy in society There's a secret to why (There's a secret) You must survive So listen to what we say Cause this type of shit happens every day (1) - (Kelis & Marc Dorsey) Come for yours cause dreams come true And this is the message that we bring through Say hey now, hey now, now Hey now, hey now No matter what teachers say to you Ghetto children are beautiful Say hey now, hey now, now Hey now, hey now (Kelis & Marc) Baby girl you're my life It's important that you smile And never cry (Don't never cry) Study math and your sciences Maybe you'll figure why we subtract and not multiply You don't know what you may be To some girl in society There's a secret to why We must survive So listen to what we say Cause this type of shit happens every day (Repeat 1) (N.E.R.D.) Crack town ghetto in the city Buildings are abandoned but the girls are still pretty A child looks in the mirror Yeah to see my life clearer All I see is ghetto keys to this jet black coke gram Nine eleven course Of course 911 don't mean help The only ones that need help is them sons without wealth It's apparent that this nation they don't know what they facing Young natural born killers and these street corner masons You want that type of money that you see in the mob cliques With your stashes in the drawers Yes with the lumps under my carpet Listen to your heart Why should I listen to you? I was here from the start But you don't bring no money through Look I only feel capes And to get it I kill Jakes By the time I'm 20 wanna be the ghetto Bill Gates You a wannabe an angel That was in my brain too Now the only Star Spangle's coming out my Cango Now that I'm out it's like the whole world flames you Although the ghetto's nothing like the conclusion I came to Your friends see you playing both sides Now they don't claim you Ghetto children change the world Don't let the world change you, come on word (Repeat 1) (Repeat 1) (N.E.R.D.) Little children wanna seem part of The whole world wants to be apart of A little ghetto things, a little ghetto things Ay yo, ay yo Little children wanna seem part of The whole world wants to be apart of My little ghetto kings, my little ghetto queens |
