Who'd ever thought that I would see this day
Where I would see my ghetto life fade away
'Cause I was lost and couldn't find a way
And now I look forward to every day
(Welcome to my sunny day)

Block don't 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, realized 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 there's a sunny day

Who'd ever thought that I would see this day (would see this day)
Where I would see my ghetto life fade away (fade away)
'Cause I was lost and couldn't find a way (find a way)
And now I look forward to every day (every day)

Welcome to my sunny day
My sunny day
Every day, 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 nine millimeter 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
Yo, Mona Lisa, can I get a date on Friday-ay-ay?
It's hard for to let go life in the ghetto
The night they blast my cousin, whoa-whoa

I had to find out a way out of my ghetto
Picked up the guitar and started singing in the ghetto
Haters use to hate in the ghetto
Said I never would made it out of the ghetto
I guess that's why my cousin sold the yayo
Even though Arnie said the sun come out tomorrow
But the ghetto stayed dark
I never thought I ever see the billboard chart

Who'd ever thought that I would see this day (would see this day)
Where I would see my ghetto life fade away (fade away)
'Cause I was lost and couldn't find a way (find a way)
And now I look forward to every day (every day)

Welcome to my sunny day
My sunny day
Every day, a better day
Welcome to my sunny day
My sunny day
Every day, a better day
Welcome to my sunny day

Been a long day
On my way to my holy place to pray
Give thanks for every blessing given to me
I know there's more to see, more to me
No more living in misery
'Cause this is how I visioned life to be

Searched high and low, so close, yet so far to go
I just know, there's a sunny day

Who'd ever thought that I would see this day (would see this day)
Where I would see my ghetto life fade away (fade away)
'Cause I was lost and couldn't find a way (find a way)
And now I look forward to every day (every day)

Welcome to my sunny day
My sunny day
Every day, a better day
Welcome to my sunny day
My sunny day
Every day, a better day
Welcome to my sunny day
