prove them wrong


Told no as a child That is TOO much That goal TOO high Who does she think she is? I have heard it all But all i wanted was to prove them wrong When they'd say no I'd say yes My goals are simple and achievable Save the world Get my own show So Little black girls can watch me and see My self respect on tv I wouldn't care about the pay AT ALL
