Walky Wah - Do It Yourself Lyrics

True queens raise kings
Momma did it on her own
Poppa never gave a dime
Couldn't really find his spine
The backbone
Raised a daughter and a black boy
Hustle like a dog
Momma had the gall
The vision The dream and ambition
Always bout her business exude determination
First in the fam with a college education
Cook clean instilled values that lead to goodwill
Momma had the skills to pay the bills
Lugging laundry on a third floor walk up
Never ask for help momma always kept it boss up
Foolish pride or a case of self-dignified
Held her head high she use to say i don't need a guy
Im serving god her soul on fire
She's Certified super fly
Leave up to her she's the master of the DIY

Do it yourself boy Nobody do it the way do it for self boy
Get it yourself boy the way I'm moving I'm only moving For self boy
I can't help you if I ain't helping my self boy
I play my hand and the only cards that I'm Dealt boy
Do it yourself boy nobody do it the way you do it for self

It ain't Kwanzaa got Kujichagulia
Modern day Haitian man moving Like Madiba
Learn to be a leader same letters that made leader
Also made me a dealer
The streets made me smart
God blessing the Medina
I do this for the love serve these cowards like Serena
Just tryna be model for the youth No Wilhelmina
I've come a long a way
From cutting classes in the hallway
Met the nigga Jeff twenty years Now we Self-Made
Now greater feeling than when you do it for self
Women like power they don't f*ck with the help
Don't need you to squeeze one out
Cuz I f*ck with my self
Mental preservation
Cuz ya health is ya wealth
Squeezing every penny to acquire the wealth
I had to hustle to make a couple
The Cops will cuff you
The constant struggle
In concrete jungle but Still I

Do it yourself boy Nobody do it the way do it for self boy
Get it yourself boy the way I'm moving I'm only moving For self boy
I can't help you if I ain't helping my self boy
I play my hand and the only cards that I'm Dealt boy
Do it yourself boy nobody do it the way do it for self boy

My own fam don't even come to my shows
Peeps I call my crew got places to go
Nigga we been to yo show
One and done Don't they know I'm the one Of one
Illuminate so bright there's Been times I replace the sun
Self defiant don't even try it
I'm on a diet from people who claim they Riding
But only jiving
It ain't surprising
I claim the throne
Born alone die alone Independence in Chromosomes
My biggest fan is M O I
Please excuse my French can't f*ck with I
Trust your dopeness
Have Humble Pie
Hamdullah Raaaaaa
Ya turnt a monster from humble guy
Note to self I pride myself
To get the job done cuz i don't need no help

Do it yourself boy Nobody do it the way do it for self boy
Get it yourself boy the way I'm moving I'm only moving For self boy
I can't help you if I ain't helping my self boy
I play my hand and the only cards that I'm dealt boy
Do it yourself boy nobody do it the way do it for self boy
