Who'd ever thought that i would see this day.... Where i would see my ghetto life fade away... Cos i was lost and couldn't find a way... and now i look forward to every day....(welcome to my sunny day)...
Block dont stop always stayed hot... No matter how the seasons got.. I still remember when they took me away.... Kept it on lock then i got caught then i realised that i had to stop... then i took the time to explore a better way...
Searched high and low, so close, yet so far to go... i just know, theres a sunny day
Who'd ever thought that i would see this day.... Where i would see my ghetto life fade away... Cos i was lost and couldn't find a way... and now i look forward to every day....
Welcome to my sunny day... my sunny day... everyday....
a better day... Welcome to my sunny day... my sunny day.... every day... a better day... welcome to my sunny day...
[Verse 2 - Wyclef Jean]: I was born in the ghetto Raised in the ghetto Saw my first 9 millimeter in the ghetto Got my first kiss in the ghetto Played hide and go seek with the girls in the ghetto Wrote my first hit in the ghetto Yeah Mona Lisa, can I get a date on Friday-ay-ay? It's hard for me to let go Life in the ghetto
The night it blessed my cousin (whoa-oa-oa) Had to find a way out the ghetto Picked up the guitar and started singing in the ghetto Haters used to hate in the ghetto Said I woulda never made it up out the ghetto I guess that's why my cousins sold the yayo Even though Annie said the sun come out tomorrow But the ghetto stayed dark I never thought I'd ever see the Billboard charts
Been a long day... on my way to my holy place to pray... Give thanks for every blessing given to me... I know theres more to see...more to me...no more living in misery... Cos this is how i visioned life to beee.....
Searched high and low, so close, yet so far to go... i just know, theres a sunny day
Who'd ever thought that i would see this day.... Where i would see my ghetto life fade away... Cos i was lost and couldn't find a way... and now i look forward to every day....
Welcome to my sunny day... my sunny day... everyday....
a better day... Welcome to my sunny day... my sunny day.... every day... a better day... welcome to my sunny day...
