You can be brought up in a ghetto, but that does not mean you have to be ghetto. There is something called evolution. Tap into it. Reparent yourself. Unlearn that hood mentality and acquire a good personality. Do not let your background put your back on the ground or put you back on the ground. Your origin does not have to be your destination. Recreate yourself. Stop using gutter language, like 'last last'. Your diction affects your condition. You did not influence how and where you began life. But you are in complete control of where you end up in life.
