ASK (Always Seeking Knowledge) - Ghetto Kids lyrics

God Bless the child, because no kid is born racist or ignorant A nation beguiled, every infant is born pure and innocent Trying to survive, then came the instant that turned him militant He lived through predicament , and I guess you can predict the end Don't judge that gent, he'll have plenty of time to think and repent The judge pounding the sounding block, 25 to life in a cell block Stupid as f**, paying the price for robbing a store with a Glock Raising hell around the clock, this lifestyle will get you locked No bail, yell fail, but too late, you should have stopped Just a kid from the block, never got to set sail, next stop jail Don't lie to me, don't blame society, for your misery, your living hell Well, society is supposed to include not expel, he would tell You should have paid for that ginger ale, now no visits no mail Forgotten , wonder if anyone will retell this tale of a young male Don't do the crime if you can't do the time, let me be frank Walk free from a war crime, but different story if you rob a bank You'll walk the plank, prison to the gang but glory to the tank In a corrupt world guilty of contempt of court, no one to thank The revolutionaries lack support, choose war and weapons as a last resort Pressure puts people in positions where they would pull a sword Losing family and faith few can afford, what is gone can never be restored -ASK
