Mary J. Blige - Children of the Ghetto lyrics
rate meChildren, children, yeah, yeah....<br />
I'm talkin' bout the babies yeah yeah yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah<br />
We gotta fight the battles<br />
Yeah, yeah, yeah<br />
<br />
Children of the Ghetto<br />
Runnin' wild and free<br />
In the concrete jungle<br />
Filled with misery<br />
Yeah, yeah, yeah<br />
Theres no inspiration<br />
To brighten up our day<br />
None at all, not at all, none at all<br />
So out of desperation<br />
I would like to say<br />
<br />
Children of the Ghetto<br />
Keep your head<br />
To the sky<br />
<br />
Keep it up, keep it up<br />
<br />
Children of the ghetto<br />
We're always in the news<br />
See toughness is our moto<br />
And bitter blues<br />
See there's no inspiration<br />
To brighten up our day<br />
None at all<br />
So out of desperation<br />
I would like to say<br />
<br />
Children of the Ghetto<br />
Keep your head<br />
To the sky<br />
<br />
Keep it up, keep it up<br />
Oh keep it up<br />
<br />
Cornell seranade the people<br />
<br />
[Musical Interlude]<br />
<br />
There's no inspiration<br />
Ooh ah<br />
To brighten up our day<br />
No, no, no, no<br />
So out of desperation<br />
I would like to say<br />
<br />
Children of the Ghetto<br />
Keep your head to the sky<br />
<br />
Keep your head up, keep your head up<br />
See to me, see to me<br />
We are all God's Children<br />
<br />
Tra, la, la, la, la, la, la<br />
Tra, la, la, la, la, la, la<br />
Tra, la, la, la, la, la, la<br />
Tra, la, la, la, la, la, la<br />
(repeat x2)<br />
<br />
Hold on tight<br />
Everything will be alright<br />
<br />
Children of the Ghetto<br />
Keep your head<br />
<br />
<br /><br /><br />
