Ghetto Of The City
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
All you want you can get
Get it now you no want it
Come here to look for prosperity
What you found was hatred and oppression
Down, down, down in the ghetto of the city
Down, down, down in the ghetto of the city
They're going down to vanity
They're going down to hypocrisy
They're going down to the ghetto of the city
Where there is hatred and poverty
Where there is hatred and poverty
Ignorance, ignorant minds?
Build their lives on vanity
Has no love for humanity
Dreams are just an illusion
Pavements are not gold
Hatred, hatred and oppression
Down in the ghetto
Down, down, down in the ghetto of the city
Down, down, down in the ghetto of the city
Like it was said earlier on
I don't feel anything for love
But I say if money could buy love the rich would live and the poor would die
This is what we found in the ghetto of the city
Ignorance, ignorant minds ?
Build their lives on vanity
Has no love for humanity
Dreams are just an illusion
Pavements are not gold
Hatred, hatred and oppression
Down in the ghetto
Down, down, down in the ghetto of the city
Down, down, down in the ghetto of the city
Ignorance, ignorant minds
Build their lives on vanity
Has no love for humanity
Dreams are just an illusion
Pavements are not gold
Hatred, hatred and oppression
In the ghetto of the city
Down, down, down in the ghetto of the city
Down, down, down in the ghetto of the city
