Breaking Out


So what's up? You tryna say I ain't good enough? You tryna take what was mine? Well I got news for you I'm too intelligent to let you scold me. I'm too strong to let you deprive me of what's mine. I've worked as hard to dig my way through I'm no different form you I have a passion for this I won't gl slit my wrist Shake it in my face and call me names Tell me I'm stupid and put me to shame Well your wrong Mama aint raise no fool You can't just use me like some tool. I'll make a name for myself Without your help I refuse to be your puppet I refuse to walk behind you You tortured me long enough now I'm through I'm walking strong and tall on my own I'm making a name that will be known And when I get to the top I'll look down on you And laugh in your face while you witness what I can do I know I'll make it and you can't stop me And all you fake, playa hating wannabees Won't be able to top me Because I'm the greatest, that can't be beat I'm gonna start flying so everyone can see I'm breaking out.

This was a result of a situation that hurt me....just a little bit.
