Something Different

{All the ghettos around the world}

{Dig this}

{Ghetto Fabulous Joe}

All the children sing {Uh}

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 in the highest celebration (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 in the highest celebration

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 inna different light}

{Spare me all about those stereotypes}

Ain't no madness that'll bring me down

Gonna take this life and turn it around

{Now see the 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 in the highest celebration (Ohohoh)
