Pity the fool, not me

I remember the lights being off for weeks

I remember sitting in the living room surviving off of kerosene heat

I remember getting dressed in the dark

I remember using cellphone light just to tell socks apart

It seemed like us & good times were a world apart

the struggle made me who I am, I know it gave me heart

I remember problems at home, I was the problem at school

I remember telling myself just get what you can use

Became book & street smart so you can't distort my views

Didn't need the gun because my brain is my tool

I use it well, so I pity the fool, that tries to knock me down
