I'm From Ghetto
don't remember all the times you've fallen
don't look back at the place
you said you were never going
the only time you look back is to laugh at the past
cos where life is taking you nobody can tell
They may say I from ghetto
They may say I from ghetto
The white man came to give us all the best he had
Of course, that's what he promised
when he came to exploit the land
they saw that everything we had was fresh and new,
and he started planning how is gonna take me as his slave
he brought dem shining objects and he gave us for free
but what we did not know there's nothing for free nothing for free..
They may say I from ghetto
They may say I from ghetto
The white man came the second time but not alone
Of course he knew my people wasn't wise enough
he brought dem machine guns to control us all
and he started he started
he gave us shining objects and he gave us for free
and then we realized there's nothing for free
oh God, nothing for free...
don't worry about your now dry your tears don't worry ,
[ tomorrow will be alright]
don't worry about the past
[cos everything is alright]
They may say I from ghetto
They may say I from ghetto
They may say I from ghetto
