I'm hungry for knowledge. The whole thing is to learn every day, to get brighter and brighter.

I seen the worst of the worst. I deserve every blessing I receive I'm from the dirt.

Their gunnin' for me, want to see me fall, you know my story, been through it all, times I felt like dyin', but I ain't cryin', what didn't kill me, makes me strong as iron.

I like a girl who spend a little cash for her shoes.
