Yeah
I always wake up thinking about
Uh-huh
My future, and my children
How to make money
To please my family
I was, I was
I was rock bottom down, and gonna lose
Swimming pools, I was drowning in the booze
Sweat oozed, flow was drowning in their boo's
And now my flow's got me drowning in their boo's
Daddy a mechanic but, home in which I lived was broke
School an uphill battle on a slippery slope
Cost huge amounts, she never brought huge amounts in
But every term at Greenhill, my mother moved a mountain
Chasing dreams, you in my lane? Hope the kid brakes
Had neither time nor the money so I missed breaks
They didn't wanna hear the boy
Now I'm played on Sanyu and I almost shed tears of joy
I don't need a choir to acquire merits
My family's on their knees, they desire derricks
Overlooked, we never showed face
Now it's just us, patience paid and it was God's grace
When I have my children
I have other things to do
In fact, they tell me they've abused you
On such a website
Abusing me? On a website
If live people abuse me and I don't care
Never complacent
When your momma was a nurse, you learn a thing or two about patience
Been in the game for what feels like an eternity
Labored hard for this delivery like a maternity
Uh, I'm eternally grateful to the fam
They graced me with a stage like way before the fans
I'm able to withstand the hate coz love surrounds me
All the booze in the world could never drown me
All I hear is daddy tell me that he proud
All I see is baby sister when she's smiling in the crowd
Wow, your energy feeds me on a daily basis
I'm stacking cake so I can take you to your favorite places
We disagree at times, that make me irk
We're far from perfect but we make it work
Enough about my family matters
Even when my wins low, I still know, family matters
Me I don't go to Ndongo
I'm not, I don't. go for soccer matches
No
My role is to think about getting money
And feed my family
I don't involve myself in things that are reserved for other people
Whenever I get an opportunity like this one
I appeal to the youth
To be oriented
Many people, unlike us who grew up in poverty
Who knew, that hard-work is the savior
A person who was not born in a rich family
You must work for yourself
