From dust to dawn I'm still the same  girl who never joined the game.
Who didn't smoke weed to fit in but stuck with my theory to the end even if they thought I was lame.
Made the grades and then got laid.  It was all good until the person I love tried to persuade me to let the heartbeat die. Not today, not this life that dwells inside. Then all of the doubt came from the people that I loved. "Drop out of school, you have a baby give it up." Adament and Unwaivering, not rich with money like I thought, but rich with wisdom and a spirit that won't let me fold. 12 years ago if you told me this is where I would be I would call you a fool. 

Adamant about the way that I speak, I'm calm and try to hold my peace. I was that sweet, shy, and always kind but look at me now. Bold, beautiful and wearing mother hood like a crown. From the clock ins to clock outs, I never thought I'd finish school and become an entrepreneur. Now success screams my name I had to do it for the heartbeat that was growing inside of me. Not having a father to lean but always having a mother to depend on was big for me. I possess the only voice that I need to validate me. Screaming "you're not the woman I thought you'd be, but regardless, I'm proud of me."
