All the ghettos around the world
Dig this
Ghetto Fabulous Joe
Shaggy (All the children sing)
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 to the highest elevation (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 to the highest elevation
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 in a different light
Just forget, all about those stereotypes
Ain't gon' let this hood bring me down
Gonna take this life and turn it around
That's right, 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 to the highest elevation (Oh, oh, oh)
Know that I am a ghetto child
But I can see the best in me, can you
I'm a ghetto child (Let's go to church now)
Just because I'm a ghetto child (Uh)
I won't live down to your expectations (Take me to church now)
Just believe that a ghetto child (Ooh)
Can rise to the highest elevation (Hey, hey)
Know that I am a ghetto child (Ooh, yeah)
But I can see the best in me, can you?
I'm a ghetto child (Hey, ghetto child, oh-oh-ooh)
Just because I'm a ghetto child
I won't live down to your expectations (Sing a song for me)
Just believe that a ghetto child (Sing a song for me)
Can rise to the highest elevation (Everybody sing it now, yeah)
Know that I am a ghetto child
But I can see the best in me, can you? (Oh)
I'm a ghetto child (So I can see the best in me, can you?)
It's not where you're from, it's where you're gonna be (Hey)

It's not where you're from, it's where you're gonna be
