The voice of a shanty town
PlexiheadsI’ve been through things and business, that you’ll never believe
I was born in a shanty town, rules and laws written upside down
At the age of 10, I was on my own, living in the streets
The Government don’t give a damn
Denying this no man’s land
I was born in the crossfire,
Kids were running, women crying
Cops were shooting, sirens loud
People yelling, doors knocked down
Shooting first, warning last
It’s a true story, sure it’s sad
The Voice of a Shanty Town, do it cause you can!
Gotta stick with your dreams
Like the choice I made
Gotta stick with your dreams
Make a real change
The chords I play on this 6-string
I learned from an old man
That was my chance to reach my soul
Shooting solos over guns
Writing songs, spreading love
Even trying to have some fun
I met these brothers, drums and bass
The power comes distorted but intense
The Voice of a Shanty Town, do it cause you can !
Gotta stick with your dreams
Like the choice I made
Gotta stick to with your dreams
Make a real change
