Janelle MonaeGhetto Woman

Carry on Ghetto Woman
I see you working night to
morning light yet no one cares
Carry on Ghetto Woman
Cause even though
they laugh and talk
about the clothes you wear
I wish they could just realize
That all you’ve ever needed
was someone to free your mind
Carry on Ghetto Woman
Cause even in your
darkest hours I still see your light
And when you cry don’t you know
that I am crying with you
When people put you down
yeah way down and you feel
like you’re alone
Let love be your guide
You were built to last
through any weather
Oh Ghetto Woman
hold on to your dreams
And all your great philosophies
You’re the reason
I believe in me for real
Carry on Ghetto Woman
When you doubt if you’re a star
just know we still believe
Carry on Ghetto Woman
Even when the news portrays
you less than you could be
I wish they could just realize
All you ever needed was
someone to free your mind
Carry on Ghetto Woman
You’re the 7th wonder
reigning over us at night
When you cry don’t you know
we’re right there crying with you
People put you down yeah way down
and you feel like you’re alone
Let love be your guide
You were built to last
through any weather
Oh Ghetto Woman hold
on to your dreams
and all your great philosophies
You’re the reason
I believe in me for real
Some say this ghetto land
will take you down and poison you
Some say she can do
all the things a man can do
Who said the ghetto’s just
a place where queens dance
naked on the moon
We say a woman came
to change the face of
each and every room
When I was just a baby
my momma dropped out of school
It was only second
semester the baby due
The doctor said
December the first your due date
The daddy he was gone off
to college he couldn’t wait
Only just a teen
with dreams to be on TV
And living with a mom and
my grandma who used to feed me
We would move around
in the city place to place
The landlord come
for the rent face to face
Her eyes too heavy from
working nights as a janitor
She’d keep it to herself and
nobody could understand her
Even when she thought
that she couldn’t she carried on
She couldn’t imagine both
of her daughters here all alone
Before the tuxedos and
black and white every day
Used to watch my momma
get down on her knees and pray
She’s the reason that
I’m even writing this song
Ghetto Woman no
it won’t be long Now sing along
Let it use you
Let it use you
When the love is strong
It won’t let you be alone
Let it use you
Just let the spirit lead you
Carry on Ghetto Woman
I see you working night to
morning light yet no one cares
Carry on Ghetto Woman
Cause even though
they laugh and talk
about the clothes you wear
I wish they could just realize
That all you’ve ever needed
was someone to free your mind
Carry on Ghetto Woman
Cause even in your
darkest hours I still see your light
And when you cry don’t you know
that I am crying with you
When people put you down
yeah way down and you feel
like you’re alone
Let love be your guide
You were built to last
through any weather
Oh Ghetto Woman

And all your great philosophies
You’re the reason
I believe in me for real
Carry on Ghetto Woman
When you doubt if you’re a star
just know we still believe
Carry on Ghetto Woman
