I don't come from money but I'm making my way
Pulling my weight working every day
The light in the tunnel seems so far away
I'm working cla**, rich but underpaid
I got pride in myself, I live life for me, pride
My pride's my wealth it sets my sorrows free, pride
My pride's my wealth, rich 'aint got sh** on me
Bustin' my a** between workin' and school
I'm a social outkast, ain't got time to be cool
I ain't no victim of society's rules
I won't back down or sell out like a fool
I got pride in myself I live my life for me, pride
My pride's my wealth it sets my sorrows free, pride
My pride's my wealth, rich 'aint got sh** on me
When I got my pride I know that I'm free
Looking in that mirror, man I like what I see
Locked down in a life that puts limits on me
I know one day, one day I'll be free
