Could Have Been Born In The Ghetto

Life is uncertain, ain’t got all I need
But I can walk the streets, feel unafraid of greed
Tell the pusha man to just pass me by
Ain’t got nothin' to gain, always high
I could have been born in the ghetto
Could’ve laid dead the ghetto
Could have been born in the ghetto
Could’ve laid dead like my brother
God bless the rich, God bless the poor
No mention for the man that ain’t no more
No bullet for my head, 'cause I ain’t got to steal
No bullet for my head, 'cause I ain’t got to deal
I could have been born in the ghetto
Could’ve laid dead the ghetto
Could have been born in the ghetto
Could’ve laid dead like my brother
Could have been born in the ghetto
Could have been born in the ghetto
Could have had nothing to live for
But the bullet from my brother’s gun
Could have been another born for destruction
Could have been born in the ghetto
Could’ve laid dead like my brother
Could have been born in the ghetto
Could’ve laid dead like my brother
Could have been born in the ghetto
Could have been born in the ghetto
Could have been born in the ghetto
Could have been born in the ghetto
