Lyrics

First thing's first- I'm grateful
Food and drink on the table
Good sabzi and Bodo's Bagels
Latter is overrated, just dont say it to Virginia natives
Like aye... aye... y'all know I'm playin'
I walk to class in the morning
The world opens before me
Right hand on the Quran, you still wouldn't believe my story
The passion, pain and glory
Clear days, the stormy
Peaceful moments and gory
Like a episode of Maury
The county judge implored me to stop workin' the quarry
White and brown rocks paved the road to purgatory
Incarceration just bored me
Coped with Hindi and stories
Now they ask if I'm alright and I reply just hunky dory
Wait... ignore me
I'm bein' extra today
Catch me trudgin' the path thats straight
Tryin' not to get led astray
I been shinin' out from within
Diamond do the same on my face
All the time in the world to take
Life aint a race
Aye look Ma, we made it
Now every day I'm elated
Came a ways from vacants and slangin' work out the basement
8 AM, I'm wakin
The angels collect my praises
SubhanAllah, yeah
Aye look Ma, we made it
We really made it
Breeze driftin' on, sun illuminate the pavement
They say life's a game I can't believe I get to play it
Daily micropayments, upgradin' and crazy it's all nascent
Aye look Ma we made it
Happy joyous and free
Condemnation to redemption
As I grind out this degree
I walk the streets and those I see
Know they or he or she is me
Feel like I'm at the apogee
But goin' higher's guaranteed, wait
Maybe not, this life is ashes to ashes
Returnin' from whence we came
Kolkata to Calabasas
I been grindin up karma
Same raasta, spiritual trappin'
If I die today I pray that god have mercy on our asses
Plus my soul to take
Never fold or break
'til I know my fate
Ain't doin' cardio but mentally I'm so in shape
Trials and tribulation to triumph, it's no debate
So lemme go on and say
Aye look Ma, we made it
