I wasn't born in the street
but into the street mentality
a reality no child should know
but it was there among strangers
my character was built
a place I called home, where I'd grow
growing wild like a weed
seeded haphazardly
no one thought I'd succeed
but I stand today...tattoo memories all over me
and it's the blood of Jesus I plead...and pray
