Lyrics Child of the Ghetto - Tiwayo

Child of the Ghetto

Oh when his world is empty
Lost in the shades of the city
He’s got to face his loneliness
How this world is full of madness
And through the experience and faith
He’ll unlock to let his flame
While he’s got many many many many many trouble
But he stands strong, very humble
Well he’s got strength (he's got strength)
He’s got so much strength (so much strength)
Cause he’s a child, child
A child of the ghetto, ghetto
He’s just a child, child
A child of the ghetto, ghetto
He’s doing fine
Oh when he sits next to you
You can feel his very soul coming through
He’s got that special look in the eyes
That people who really suffered have
He has known so much, so much pain
But he walks with pride and no shame
And now he knows how to find hard times
By spreading his jaw time after time
But he’s got strength (he's got strength)
Yeah so much strength (so much strength)
Cause he’s a child, child
A child of the ghetto, ghetto
He’s just a child, child
A child of the ghetto, ghetto
And he’s doing fine
Ohhh, don’t child
I know life is not easy this time
Keep the smile on your face
And show us the way to go, hmm
Show us the way child
(Child, child) child of the ghetto, ghetto
Child, child
A child of the ghetto, ghetto
This kid is doing fine
(Child, child
Child of the ghetto, ghetto
Child, child)
A child of the ghetto, ghetto
