Never Will I Be Ashamed Of Where I Come From

I come from fast lanes to hanging out at night
Not coming home till off goes the street light
Hearing people say, Everday is not a good day 
But just ask God and everyday will be a good day

I come from the rough streets of Worthdale
To the late night shootings to
The neighbors not able to get along
Because of one who has broken in
Not to many will be your friend

I come from Raliegh North,Carolina
Home Of The brave
To the shootings that have lead one to be dead
Not thinking before we react
To simply just not giving a crap
About anyone but there selves

I come from a hard head makes a soft a**
To not listening to my parents
To if you say the wrong thing  
I will wash your mouth out with soap
you cuss again

I come from a Father who is oh so strict
To if you have a man i will do a background check
You may take me as a joke
But i promise you one thing I'll never forget my Brick

I come from a Mother who is the type of person
If you disrespect me
I will help you pack your bags
And send you on your way
I do not raise disrespectful kids

I come from the Sarah Kayed and Charles Perry
Who are My parents
To nowadays They barely get along
Why i don't understand (ma Why it always got to be the man)

I come from Not having a pot to piss in
To being a woman of my own
Never will i stand alone

I come From I will not tolerate this s***
To you will do as i tell you to
Or else you will suffer

I come from telling the truth
To doing what is told of me
To respecting my elders
Or their will be no fun

I come from a child to
Being a grown Woman
To moving on My own

I come from reading Zhane Books
To the story what's done in the dark will come to the light
To eating whatever was put on my plate
Making sure i was in bed by Eight

I come from i'm not
Ashamed of where i come from
