Brooklyns Daughter

This is my story, it’s how I grew up Ready to listen, here we go I’m a beautiful dreamer with a lovely demeanor A smile I can easily relate Sincere how I feel, my passion is real Eyes so hard they won’t negotiate From the little girl with bouncing curls Making my way through the world Righteous pride for all to see, I’ll make it my reality Inside I cried a thousand times Living is hard I need to survive Concrete jungle, one step at a time I am Brooklyn’s Daughter It’s where my story begins I am Brooklyn’s Daughter Imbedded under my skin In the County of Kings I know what it means to have my back against the wall I had to fight, I quickly learned Sometimes we win, sometimes we fall With pride I rise, my head held high Can’t hold me down, I gotta be strong I know to whom I belong I am Brooklyn’s Daughter It’s where my story begins I am Brooklyn’s Daughter Imbedded under my skin I am Brooklyn’s Daughter It’s where my story begins, It’s where my story begins I am Brooklyn’s Daughter Imbedded under my skin My mother she made me, Brooklyn she raised me You can’t know where you’re going, till you know where you’ve been The hustle, the lies, my struggle, my stride My story to the world, something harder to admit Wa oh oh oh oh, Wa oh oh oh oh Wa oh oh oh oh, Wa oh oh oh oh Wa oh oh oh oh, Wa oh oh oh oh Wa oh oh oh oh, waaaooooo I am Brooklyn’s Daughter, I am Brooklyn’s Daughter It’s where my story begins, It’s where my story begins I am Brooklyn’s Daughter Imbedded under my skin Wa oh oh oh oh, Wa oh oh oh oh Wa oh oh oh oh, Wa oh oh oh oh Wa oh oh oh oh, Wa oh oh oh oh Wa oh oh oh oh, Wa oh oh oh oh Fulton, Downtown, Bensonhurts, Eastside, Red Hook, Sunset Park, Cobble Hill, Brooklyn Bridge, DUMBO
