Children of the ghetto

Runnin' wild and free

In the concrete jungle

Filled with misery

There's no inspiration

To brighten up their day

So out of desperation

I would like to say

Children of the ghetto

Keep your head

To the sky

Children of the ghetto

Are always in the news

Toughness is their moto

And bitter are their blues

But deep inside the ghetto

There's a unity

Their councils are for sorrows

And no misery

Children of the ghetto

Keep your head

To the sky

To the sky

God's your inspiration

To brighten up your day

Don't you know

So better consolation

I would like to say

Children of the Ghetto

Keep your head

To the sky

Saved with me

There's so many children

Keep your head up

Keep it

Keep it up

Saved with me

There's so many children

Keep your heard up

Keep it

Keep it up

Don't you know

Everything

Is gonna be alright

If you just

Keep it up

Keep it up

Keep it up

Everything

Surely is gonna be alright

If you just

Keep it up
