I'm 23 now, but will I live to see 24?

I'm the ghetto Martha Stewart, the black Rachel Ray.

They say I need to learn, but nobody's here to teach me. If they don't understand, how can they reach me?

But when I really look back on my life, being really honest about it and now that I've got the chance to travel the world, seeing how a lot of little kids grow up - my life wasn't so bad.

I'm 23 now, but will I live to see 24?

Seriously, if someone don't like this appetizer, you gotta grab they scruffy ass by the back of their neck and throw them out on the lawn. I can't help people like that.

I see ya waiting for the bus early in the morn', brick house with a face like Lena Horne.
