My hand shakes as I knock on my mothers door
I’d been a believer since I was born.

Only to be brought down by foolishness
Foolishness from classmates
That don’t understand whats at stake
And education
The key to reviving a nation
trying to do the right thing
trying to change your ways
trying to stick to God but Satan just won't stay away
stay away from drugs

Digging in the dust and in ourselves,
