My Root
*MY ROOT*
*I know my root*
*I know where I started*
*My tears weren't just from pain or sadness*
*Many at times from my efforts*
*My sweats weren't all from heat*
*Some from the struggles I made*
*Many times I fell to my knees*
*Not because of my loss*
*Many times I was praying*
*That my labour shall never be in vain*
*If tomorrow comes and you see me smile*
*Not because I've made it*
*But because I have hope for better tomorrow*
*And if you see me balling in the club*
*I'm not a wasteful spender, I've paid my dues*
*But no matter how great I make it on life*
*I shall always remember my beginning*
*And I shall always thank God for my root*
