Tekst Utworu

Said I had to raise, raise, raise my kids in the ghetto
'Cause there was no place else to go
Listening to the devil's lies
Everywhere you go you're in his eyes
And I said Lord, oh Lord, I can't stand it no more
Somebody said, "Would you send them home?
Send them home where they belong"
I'm still trying to find out how we got here
'Cause I knew it wasn't on our own
All we did was praise the lazy days back off in the ghetto
Singing Lord, we shall overcome
But now we sing a different tune
'Cause while you're sending people to the moon
Here on earth it came but not too soon, yeah
Somebody said, "Would you send them home?
Send them home where they belong"
I'm still trying to find out how we got here
'Cause I knew it wasn't on our own
Said I had to raise, raise, raise my kids in the ghetto
'Cause there was no place else to go
Listening to the devil's lies
Everywhere you go you're in his eyes
I said Lord, oh Lord, I can't stand it no more
Somebody said, "Would you send them home?
Send them home where they belong"
I'm still trying to find out how we got here
'Cause I knew it wasn't on our own
