Uh Yeah uh
Me I dey come from the motherland (yeah yeah uh uh yeah yeah uh)
Since a young boy I was vigilanting (yeah yeah uh uh yeah yeah uh)
I can never be what another man is (yeah yeah uh uh yeah yeah uh)
I can never trust what they governmenting
(Yeah yeah uh uh yeah yeah uh)
Tryna keep a hold of the stress tryna pay them bills
We gon pay them bills ah
Mamma told gotta dream big
Gotta chase that through gotta chase that through ah
I can feel the pain deep inside
Gotta take them pills gonna take them pills ah
Gotta keep god in my life
He gon write my will we gon make it through ah
Since the young days I was strong
Getting thru the pain with a song
Now I'm getting paid for a song
Going thru the rain n the storm
Gotta be the best that I can be
Gotta get the bread for my family
God by my side that's a blessing
Jus a young boy for the west end
Me I dey come from the motherland (yeah yeah uh uh yeah yeah uh)
Since a young boy I was vigilanting (yeah yeah uh uh yeah yeah uh)
I can never be what another man is (yeah yeah uh uh yeah yeah uh)
I can never trust what they governmenting
(Yeah yeah uh uh yeah yeah uh)
We been thru the mud they won't understand this
Started wit the struggle never had advantage
Opportunities that come I never take 4 granted
Starting making guala quickly had 2 raise the standard
Had my hoodie on security wanna call me bandit
Racist ass I already knew that shit was gonna happen
Just because I'm black
They think imma bad man
I'm a real nigga straight out the motherland
Our pride done show up in our land where we grew up
How can they know us when they throw hate to us
