Ghetto Child (demo Version) Lyrics

Ghetto Child (demo Version) lyrics

Little child, runnin' wild

Watch a while

You see he never smiles



Broken home, father gone

Mama tired, so he's all alone

Kind of sad, kind of mad

Ghetto child, thinkin' he's been had



But I can just hear him

In the back of his mind sayin'

Didn't have to be here



You didn't have to love for me

While I was just a nothin' child

Why couldn't y'all just let me be

Let me be, let me be, let me be?



Little child, runnin' wild

Watch a while

You see he never smiles



Broken home, daddy gone

Mama tired and he's all alone

Kind of sad, oh baby, kind of mad

Ghetto child, thinkin' he's been had



And I can just hear him sayin'

I didn't have to be here

You didn't have to love for me



While I was just a nothin' child

Why couldn't they just let me be

Let me be, let me be, let me be?



Ain't got no money

I got to play in the alleys, ain't got no pride

Just took everything out of me, I got it sad



Got to make it alone

Got to get away from home

There's ain't no fun, my life I just run



Run on, run on, run on ghetto child

Run on ghetto child

Run on ghetto child

Run on ghetto child



You're runnin' wild

Watch a while

You see he never smiles

Father gone, alright
