Thank God for the music that raised me 
I could never stay motivated
I was forever aggravated, always stressed thoughts crowding me I swear my mind felt like it was litigated 
My hope forever lacking ,my soul torn , heart weeping ,faith was no where to be seen and never elevated
My self image constantly dropping like Mzansi's currency , could never even trust my own reflection cause damn I grew always belittled by friends and family not to mention discriminated against .
People around me were always pretentious , the hate was too loud, some loved me from afar and at a distance/in the shadows .
I could have easily replaced my heart with a spade and went cold 
But how could I ever let that even be an option I refuse to lett anyone or anything phase me 
Could never let anybody have that much power over me 
To the point where they influence my change from drastic to little
That's why I grind so hard could never let a man get the chance to scream that he made me
Dayeeeeeeem the goal is to be miss independent before I am a Mrs 
But to be honest being a wife has never been on my wish list 
Because when we counting achievements marriage ain't none of them 
For me marriage is just a disaster waiting to happen 
Because it could either be the beginning of a nightmare or your doom
But either way you are still screwed
So I don't want anybody sweeping me off my feet because for a second or two I would love to be the broom
