verse 2
 
I take time to reflect on the reason of crime
What made my grand ma to go sell moon shine
What make a woman in a ghetto sell a bottle for fun 
Young man selling crack taking lives with guns 
Its not a choice so it gat to be the succemstances 
Minimum options she gat to play that hand
We need to shapple that decs coz the car is being fixed
Ne game coz the dealer is up to his old tricks

Chorus

verse 3




Ghetto people knows how to improvise
Never ever back down no matter the size
At the bottom the pile we are looking high
Big dreams from the dust we rise
Like the sun in morning you know we gona shine
Illuminate the whole world changing hearts and minds
Pick the luck if no body wana  opening the door
Ones we are in you can't us out no more
