I came directly from through the ranks All my dues paid, my homage to life To my God alone all my humble thanks For bread I slice with prayer knife . I came strictly from my very own hood All of my dues I paid through my strife To mama dear for prayers and our food For all she sacrificed to save my life . I came humbly from a very blessed home All my dues are paid through my chores To charity, that says take and share some For all I learned , I am beyond my shores . I came strongly ready to join the hustle My dues paid with my years of readiness To poverty, a real caveat for my struggle For I've persevered through steadfastness . #Vanguard-poetry

My Dues Are Paid
I came directly from through the ranks All my dues paid, my homage to life To my God alone all my humble thanks For bread I slice with prayer knife . I came strictly from my very own hood All of my dues I paid through my strife To mama dear for prayers and our food For all she sacrificed to save my life . I came humbly from a very blessed home All my dues are paid through my chores To charity, that says take and share some For all I learned , I am beyond my shores . I came strongly ready to join the hustle My dues paid with my years of readiness To poverty, a real caveat for my struggle For I've persevered through steadfastness . #Vanguard-poetry
