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
