My mama tell me to stay in school when I was seven
All the time I hit the class with no food man, I was starving
I do my best to study with the pain inside my stomach
I don't wanna talk too much but, this pain still inside me
Look at my eyes and say all the words I need to hear
I f*cked up many times, But never stop on the grind
Trust me when I say I don't love, I really mean it
I watch meechy fast all day cause, I ain't had shit
I put on the J's, forget the assignment I never needed that
I run out from school and go to the crib, my mama lost hope
Where I'm from, If you ain't schoolin', they see you as a bad child
They paint you with the bad future, when you ain't really schoolin'
Now I'm out of school, I'm hoping I make it through the shame
All the work and risk I'm taking, I hope it really pays
All the love and care, I got it from my mama
The promise I made, I'm trying my best, not to drown it
Big bags, on my mind every time I sleep
I just wanna see my mama smile, that's all I need
Allahu Akbar, I go on my knees I was born a Muslim
I scream Walahi, I'm never losing, I put it on my Tasbih
I heard the Azan from afar, that's a call
Had a dream, moving like a star, that's a sign
That's a call
Had a dream, moving like a star, that's a sign
My mama told me to stay in school when I was seven
All the time I hit the class, with no food man, I was starving,
I do my best to study with the pain inside my stomach
