My Life

So many things going on inside my life

So many things I wish I can turn into right

See, where I'm from, it's not that easy to survive

Everyday another murder, another homicide

But I believe, believe in me

And I believe I will succeed

I'm just another sister out here tryna make it

Just being real, I rather die before I try to fake it

And I'ma keep reaching for my destination

It's gon' be hard 'cause the world is full of temptation

But I ain't scared 'cause my daddy taught me how to face it

And I'll be standing here, ready for any situation

And I won't back down from nothing, that's a promise, baby

No, I won't back down from nothing, that's a promise, baby

And I'll be standing here, ready for any situation

And I won't back down from nothing, that's a promise, baby

I lost my homies to the hood and my closest to the streets

I'm so tired of seeing caskets, all I wanna see is peace

Lord, please, won't you take me out this struggle shit

Make me a better woman, help me get hella rich

But still I thank the Lord for my blessings everyday

Just to wake up in the morning, just to see my mama's face

Lord, please, won't you take me out this struggle shit

Make me a better woman, help me get hella rich

So many things bringing joy inside my life

My hopes and dreams, I prayed about 'em every night

I made my mind up, I'm not gonna give up this time

I came too far to quit, won't stop until I'm satisfied

And I'ma keep the faith in me

The faith in me makes me believe

That I can do anything I put my mind to

And I can be anything that is destined to me

And this young girl, young girl full of integrity

Strive to perfection, y'all won't ever get the best of me

Intelligent mama taught me how to be a lady

If it's relevant, then that's what I do so I can make it

I lost my homies to the hood and my closest to the streets

I'm so tired of seeing caskets, all I wanna see is peace

Lord, please, won't you take me out this struggle shit

Make me a better woman, help me get hella rich

But still I thank the Lord for my blessings everyday

Just to wake up in the morning, just to see my mama's face

Lord, please, won't you take me out this struggle shit

Make me a better woman, help me get hella rich

Lord, please

Take me away, take me away
