Song Lyrics:

[ Verse 1 : Sellotapez ] I'm from a place where the ghetto lies/ a place where the truth traumatize, a place called a ghetto and the people get ghettoized, criticized, undermined, paid no mind like they don't exist/ first- by the government deserting us, are interest are not of paramount importance/ making us feel impotent/ dusty roads lack of water, conditions bad, we are scavengers/ Secondly- the people from the burbs keep messing with our minds now we pessimist/Lastly- it's us, the ghetto people, with inferiority complex and the truth is kinda hard to digest/ [ Chorus ] It's funny how they go around and preach equality/ while we know they won't allow a one society/ Judge you coz of where you from and ridicule you/ I'm from the ghetto oftenly I'm the victim/ It's funny how they go around and preach equality/ while we know they won't allow a one society/ Judge you coz of where you from and ridicule you/ I'm from the ghetto oftenly I'm the victim/ I feel impotent, ghettoize - ghetto - ghetto ghettoize Ghetto - ghetto ghettoize Ghetto - ghetto ghettoize [ Verse 2 : Hizzle ] Unapologetic/ Do I Miss The Truth or just being confused/ Is it my fate to lose/ They'll never give me praise/ They'll never give me props/ All they say about me/ is that I act too much/ like I know too much/ I guess that's all they see or what they wanna see/ They'll never see the truth, not the good in me/ there's nothing good in me/ there's no believers in me/ this world full of hate/ this world full of lies/ They'll only pay homage/ when you six feet, six feet, six feet buried in the dirt/ when the earth eats you/ because death got you/ They start remembering you/ Cruel world you should know by now/ ain't nothing fair about it/ ain't nothing new about it [ Chorus ] It's funny how they go around and preach equality/ while we know they won't allow a one society/ Judge you coz of where you from and ridicule you/ I'm from the ghetto oftenly I'm the victim/ It's funny how they go around and preach equality/ while we know they won't allow a one society/ Judge you coz of where you from and ridicule you/ I'm from the ghetto oftenly I'm the victim/ I feel impotent, ghettoize - ghetto - ghetto ghettoize Ghetto - ghetto ghettoize Ghetto - ghetto ghettoize [ Verse 3 : Sellotapez ] We are part of this world too/ same as y'all we got dreams too/still we suffer Adam and Eve, forbidden fruit/ still we sidelined, are we a Cole World? don't we deserve better? Privatised education gave the ghetto a public one without consistency/ Where's the decency? Discrepancies amazes me/Where's democracy? Is just a illusion of freedom my people are starving, deep in the heart of the ghetto while you full with your belly in your offices/ we need infrastructure better schools and libraries/ I don't need your free T-shirt, still I vote I'm responsible, yeah right like I got a choice/ I'm sick of being sidelined, I'm sick of being excluded, secluded, my music won't reach you, I'm still fighting for that airplay [ Chorus ] It's funny how they go around and preach equality/ while we know they won't allow a one society/ Judge you coz of where you from and ridicule you/ I'm from the ghetto oftenly I'm the victim/ It's funny how they go around and preach equality/ while we know they won't allow a one society/ Judge you coz of where you from and ridicule you/ I'm from the ghetto oftenly I'm the victim/ I feel impotent, ghettoize - ghetto - ghetto ghettoize Ghetto - ghetto ghettoize Ghetto - ghetto ghettoize
