Ghetto Soundwave Lyrics - Truth And Soul - Fishbone

There's another cry of murder 

Policeman shoot down baby brother 

Shot him, shot him down in the street 

But did they know the mother's grief 

Were they sure they got the right one 

Did they know he was her only son 

A father tries to feed his family 

They come here to find their opportunity 

Living, living, living in the streets 

With their dreams and with their humility 

Can't we all see the pain and hurt 

They love this land maybe more than us 

There's a ghetto sound wave 

Gets to me everyday 

There's a ghetto sound wave 

Gets to me everyday 

Another bourgeois politician 

Hears out pleas but does not listen 

Never, never, never sees the need 

But caters only to his greed 

Can't he see there's no use in lying 

And don't he know all our hope is dying
