The Real Life
May 20, 2013
Do they really know,
how low that i would go,
i used to go from place to place,
i used to do every single race,
just for a little bit of change,
still i would feel like im in a cage,
my pimp would beat me and i would weep,
then i would go into the streets,
and work till my heart slowly beat,
i finally got the courage to stand up,
breathe and drink out my own cup,
i used to hate looking in the mirror,
because i was looking at a blank stare,
now i look because its a dar,
i have gotten so damn strong,
i put my life together like a beautiful strong.
