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 class, 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 shit on me Bustin' my ass 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 shit 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
