Ghetto Named “ Just because I came from a ghetto doesn ’ t mean I can ’ t be as educated as you ” Ghet-to gave him the name Superstardom is his game Claim to fame is lyrically deep People outside the fence his world aint ever s — s — seen Trying hard why perplexed ? acclaimed know it all Lawyers , doctors , dissect if you can , that ’ s a homework in itself project X-end Something a manuel book can ’ t seep or connect Clean cut demeanor attitude “ fierce , “ what regrets ? clear conscious , none my dear ! Barriers go up hard to breakdown Articulate in words , life everything around Still a bad , taste in your political hearsay no- it- all- mouth Telling me dress , do , Your ultimate bozo clown , is that truth ? Standing up to my idea torn wall is down , mind at ease Beauty is the beholder , “ I AM A SOMEBODY ” Not a society goon like you , nothing to fear , viewing now beyond you !

Found “ Sometimes you fall prey to many things , objects and feelings , follow your heart and you will find your inner self ” Destroyed my dignity , love of life no sympathy Broken hearted , tears trickling my fragile face down pouring Lack of sleep , this isn ’ t a movie or TV The story of my time a “ still life ” artist piece 5 years later thoughts of me surfaced Suddenly so , so you have to talk , hear why so important after all these years ? Sweat , blood , recuperating Sowed up , debilitating First , two , three steps I surpassed , Made it through even though hecklers did harass Open your eyes , read my lips , you do not deserve my present , future and my past . Did I scare you now , maybe impressed you at last ?
