Im young but not dumb


 

I may be young but i aint dumb.
I’m from a place where making it out is far from my reach.
I Been through all the ups and downs
But I still over come.
People slam doors doors in my face so
I built intentions, dreamed of white picket fences and dreamed of just making it.
I'm a fighter and I came to win every obstacle  that comes before.
I’m a animal, defeating every obstacle
Everything is changeable, 
well nothing is impossible. 
you try to get the best of me
by throwing in that fact that i aint making it. 
I Don’t act aggressively
Instead i kill them with success successfully
Even though you telling me I  can’t do it
Cause you think its too farfetched for me to handle.
The Shortcomings that I had in my life led them to think that making it is impossible.
But When the odds are against me i just don't  give it up
I Pick an occasion, and go after it
Cause  Imma rise to it
And imma pay intentions
On making it.
