Like life’s a miracle and a blessing Every trial and test is a lesson Gotta seek the truth and stop guessing Ain’t got no room for doubts so ask questions Knowledge is the most powerful weapon Gotta forward march, no half stepping I’ve learned, learned, learned Ooh ohh, ooh ohhh My Momma really tried to keep me out the terrors there of the hood (yeah) Did everything that they told me that I can’t To show ‘em that I could, Ooh yeah People always told me that I was bad I was misunderstood! But, I admit that I was lost Click, click, do ya, do ya, yeah (ohh, ohh) Had to learn the hard way, it's smoke won’t burn along as you go It’s a miracle I’m still standing! (Still standing) Woke up with the crosstown beefin’ in my own town only in the midtown Never thought that I would make it But, on my Momma, I’m on now!
