All My Life Been Po

I was just listening to Nappy Roots song and just got to thinkin' about my life.

Growing up I didn't have the newest gadgets or name brand clothes or the nicest car.

I remember going through so many ghetto cars. A red car that caught on fire. A jeep that broke down in the middle of no where. A truck that we had to stop every now and then to cool it down 'cause it would overheat. Who knows how many big vans
We named one clifford the big red van. lol

Shopping for new clothes we would go twice a year, before school and on our birthday. Goin' to the D.I. for the things we needed or whatever. I remember the Bishops Store House trips. How long it would take to put all the food away. The many times my mom would make an AWESOME meal from scraps of whatever we had in our cuboards.

Looking back at it I wouldn't trade it for a brand new home, the best newest car or a treat out to a fancy restraunt. It just makes me more greatful for what I do got and for a strong happy family.

I KEEP IT GHETTO! LOL that's how I like it
