Ghetto: Misfortune's Wealth

Poor struggles are sad, 'cause being poor is bad
Poor people are tired, tired, tired of trying to make due
God’s glory is glad, no more will poor be had
They’ve been inspired, inspired, inspired to break through
(Ghetto!) Call it misfortune’s wealth (In the ghetto)
(Ghetto!) Everybody’s gettin' fat but the poor man (In the ghetto)
(Ghetto!) Oh ain’t gonna keep rottin' in hell (In the ghetto)
(Ghetto!) Can’t stand for that, I’m leaving soon as I can (In the ghetto)
(Ghetto! In the ghetto)
(Ghetto! In the ghetto)
I’m findin' strength each and every day
I don’t mind the length I go to find a way
Pullin' up on my bootstrap, got to step right on
Ain’t sittin' on welfare’s lap no more, got to push on
(Ghetto!) Call it misfortune’s wealth (In the ghetto)
(Ghetto!) Everybody’s gettin' fat but the poor man (In the ghetto)
(Ghetto!) Oh ain’t gonna keep rottin' in hell (In the ghetto)
(Ghetto!) Can’t stand for that, I’m leaving soon as I can (In the ghetto)
(Ghetto! In the ghetto)
(Ghetto! In the ghetto)
(Ghetto!) Pullin' up on my bootstrap, got to step right on (In the ghetto)
(Ghetto!) Ain’t sittin' on welfare’s lap no more, got to push on (In the ghetto)
(Ghetto!) Oh call it misfortune’s wealth (In the ghetto)
(Ghetto!) Everybody’s gettin' fat but the poor man (In the ghetto)
(Ghetto!) Oh ain’t gonna keep rottin' in hell (In the ghetto)
(Ghetto!) Can’t stand for that, I’m leaving soon as I can (In the ghetto)
(Ghetto! In the ghetto)
(Ghetto! In the ghetto)
(Ghetto! In the ghetto)
(Ghetto! In the ghetto)
(Ghetto! In the ghetto)
