When I was 17 I ran away from home

And from everything I had ever known

I was sick and tired living in a town

Filled with narrow minds and hate

They used to laugh at me and

Children called me names

I would run and hide feeling so ashamed

Just for being born I was just a boy

Punished for a crime that was not mine

Life ain't so easy

When you're a ghetto child

Life ain't so easy

When you're a ghetto child

No one tried to understand

Papa did the best a man could do

A child's reality is paid for by his folks

Fancy fairy tales are bought and sold by those

Who can well afford time to make believe

Childhood dreams can still come true

So I've been wandering traveling all around

Guess it ain't my style to live in just one town

Still I'll never know why a child is blamed

Ridiculed and shamed we're all the same

Life ain't so easy

When you're a ghetto child

Life ain't so easy

When you're a ghetto child yeah

Ooh yeah life ain't so easy

When you're a ghetto child

Oh baby life ain't so easy

When you're a ghetto child

Life ain't so easy

When you're a ghetto child

Life ain't so easy

When you're a ghetto child

Life ain't so easy

When you're a ghetto child

Life ain't so easy

When you're a ghetto child

Life ain't so easy
