ghetto street

( Poverty 's song )

••

I'm just an Orphan Child
with a  broken  smile

In my deep retreat

/:/

Between the gang **** and the dawn

//

When YE see the police man

YE better run

••


When I see the silly little white girl

Cryin

WHERE ARE YE BABY ?

takes my mind awhile

To just settle down

//

I'm an orphan song

With a silenced sound

/:::/

An orphan child

/////

/////

Rivers of Blood

Alleyway dreams

••

An orphan song

••

I'm wise and I'm tough and I'm strong

••

An orphan child

••

So good and so pure and so kind

Ain't got no family so you all are mine

//

The reality of pure Suffering

Hurts to the core of humanity

//

I'm an orphan song

An orphan child

But everyone is

An orphan too

In this world which really

Ain't no good

//

Just an orphanage

Serving rotten food

Just an orphan child

Just like you

Singin an orphan song

For me and you

Just an orphan song

An orphan song

An orphan song
