I remember being poor[00:00:39]
Not so long ago scrubbing on my grand-mama floor[00:00:41]
Counting all the hoes[00:00:44]
That's been there since I was four[00:00:45]
Wishing I could eat the chip on my shoulder[00:00:47]
To make me strong[00:00:49]
It was mean times with grand-moms[00:00:50]
And my uncle Raymond[00:00:52]
Had a steady day job[00:00:54]
Blew It all and It paid off[00:00:55]
Worst of all he got laid off[00:00:57]
Washed up with no Sta-soft[00:00:58]
I got myself some education[00:01:00]
Just so I don't stay starving[00:01:02]
Cause I remember when they cut the power off[00:01:03]
Fridge was empty anyway so nothing would go off[00:01:06]
Living off prim-us and coal stove[00:01:09]
Just to be warm[00:01:11]
Fry some chicken feet[00:01:12]
And use the oil as gravy sauce[00:01:14]
Now room service at five stars[00:01:16]
Puffing joints out the hotel window[00:01:19]
In cape town or Nairobi[00:01:21]
I declare on my Invoice[00:01:23]
37 calling the room asking to thank god that we on[00:01:25]
Wa bona ntwana never give It up at all[00:01:29]

Ha gona sepe se se difficult at all[00:01:48]
And If they got a problem let em know[00:01:50]
This Is the pain I've endured[00:01:52]
I remember being broke son[00:01:55]
Pops working to the bone son[00:01:57]
My mind telling me flow son[00:01:58]
My grind telling me own up[00:02:00]
Your ass ain't gin blow up[00:02:01]
Don't talk jack just crawl back[00:02:03]
In that backpack and get a real job[00:02:05]
Damn mama told me life was hard[00:02:07]
But she didn't say no more[00:02:09]
Cause I never listened at all[00:02:11]
'Til I had to borrow money for transport[00:02:12]
To record my verse on street music[00:02:15]
That minute I got the call now I'm gone[00:02:17]
Ah looking back at all my shortfalls[00:02:20]
I look forward to a lot more[00:02:22]
Like world tours and encores[00:02:24]
I mean what else Is next after[00:02:25]
You open up award shows[00:02:27]
With bars known by every 16 year old at your mall[00:02:28]
So all In all here's to spitting bars[00:02:33]
And bottles stores and moving onto climbing charts[00:02:35]
And hanging with the biggest stars[00:02:37]
Although It's way bigger than living large[00:02:39]
I'm living off the art god gave to my heart[00:02:41]
And now I'm feeling more[00:02:44]
Wa bona ntwana never give It up at all[00:02:45]
Man up and stand up[00:02:47]
Remember you started a long time ago[00:02:48]

Ha gona sepe se se difficult at all[00:03:04]
And If they got a problem let em know[00:03:06]
Let em know[00:03:08]
Stand as tall as time[00:03:10]
Cause these skies bear witness[00:03:12]
To how mere dust can rise to meet god In the air[00:03:14]
There lies your story from grime to glory[00:03:17]
Struggles turned scripture Inscribed Into your spine[00:03:21]
To remind your backbone of what you've always known[00:03:24]
The ground Is not your home[00:03:27]
Straighten up and fly right[00:03:29]
Endure and keep on you are the celebration[00:03:31]
Never a funeral march or swan song[00:03:35]
This 808 of your heart beats only triumphs from the war[00:03:37]
March on 'til life hands you an applause[00:03:41]
For the curse and the cause[00:03:44]
For the fight and the flaw[00:03:46]
For the sleepless nights of dreams[00:03:47]
That dance victory to your door[00:03:49]
Keep resilience at your core[00:03:50]
And a church In your palms[00:03:52]
You're the future that Is fashioned from[00:03:53]
Fight and freedom song[00:03:55]
Stay low keep firing[00:03:57]
And It won't be too long If you endure[00:03:58]
