Ode to Myself, A Bronx Girl

written September 21, 2016 at 4:05 AM

I'm a Bronx Girl 

From a small town girl 

I just realized I gotta make it work 

Cause society don't work 

That's why I need to get away 

Make my own way 

Golden brick roads

No scarecrow 

My heart open no fear 

3:54 a.m.

Paving the way 

It's dirty but it's my dirt 

I came from the clay 

Creator's Spirit 

My life I feel it I hear it
