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 den i got popped den i realised dat i had to stop...
Den 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...

I was born in the ghetto, raised in the ghetto.
saw my first 9mm in the ghetto.
I got my first kiss in the ghetto.
playing hide and go seek,
with the girls in the ghetto
I wrote my first hit in the ghetto
Yoo mona lisa can i get a date on friday-ay-ay,
its hard for me to let go, life in the ghetto
the night it blessed my cousin.
i had to find a way out of the ghetto
picked up the guitar and
started to singin in the ghetto.
haters used to hate in the ghetto,
said i never would made it out of the ghetto
i guess thats why my cousin sold to yayo.
even though hanny said the
sun come out tomorrow.
But the ghetto stayed dark,
i never thought i ever see the billboard chart.
