Yes I Know

Yes I know people are talking But as for me I'm just going to keep on walking Girl gotta do what she needs to do To survive these streets Heck and nightmares Exactly what this lady is living through Have two Carrying one She a pregnant mommy left on her own All alone Now what is she gonna do? Working two jobs But a few others on the side A Latina girl with high expectations for her money and herself When in her small apartment There's no room for a shelf To place her achievements Yeah you better believe it A wealthy woman with a nice house And a fresh ride But she husslin' to make that extra money on the side Over 100 grand is how much debt she is in On top of it all Her husband just died He commited suicide Now what is she gonna do? Now what would you do? If the federals were coming after you..
