Born Rich

Lot of us never born rich Scavenging and Piecing The puzzle to make something Come and just make a switch Live in poverty Working eight to five Be able grow past to what I'll miss 50 to 50 Good and bad Times we never had great stuff in the fridge Digging through cabinets Just find scraps in the home dug inside a ditch Cause in life You won't find Equality and equity Since lately The world isn't on stability Vaguely remembered what we had to keep us going Keep growing Not homeless Almost came to once but glad we just kept passing Stuck in the middle Where I'm at isn't exactly what you call accidental I worked hard where I'm at in the middle Something that you leave or tend to fiddle We had what worked and cooked on the griddle Figure stuff out as a damn stupid riddle Checked around the house just find some dimes or if we could, even find a lucky nickel Once I never wanted to make change Or even never wanted to ever just pick a different lane Came close to being called another type of name Walker was it, doesn't fit for the kind of person that had soon came A lot of me just isn't the same The friends that I made That I call family Don't care much for the amount of money I have financially More so focused on what I got going for me My own family didn't start being born rich Took time for income, but we make up for what we missed Divorce came, hit us hard, some money gone to some broke man bitch Mother in debt, going strong, but free in short time, use it for her own shit Moving To new lands Just to make a different stand New way of life Just in time Lost so much pride to stay alive But new surroundings made me strike Against my thoughts, make them align With new purpose to stay in the fight Now I am in new delight Where I have become so kind Making moves to make sure I don't fall behind Didn't mind people paying for me but still I didn't like Now I live on my own where I make up my own mind Many thanks to the ones who helped me keep in sight Of my own goals that I want to reach in time You only live once, make every moment combine Into one, remember for life I learned more from my heart Opened up to hard parts Don't even know where to start It's fine, now in my car Sharing thoughts that were so dark But those thoughts are no more I threw them out the door I'm happier than what I was Make a living with what I have done I know it's been a rough one Even so, I'm passed with what I was It's true, I was a dark one I'm bright as the gold sun Problems won't outrun Face them head on Lot of us never born rich Never born rich
