I’m from a place where there are no dreamers
People are afraid to dream so they become scammers
And innocent people’s worst nightmare

I’m from a place where being a smart girl is forbidden
When you have brain best keep it hidden
Or men will be intimidated

I’m from a place where dropping out of school is a norm
Peer pressure leads the youth to conform
To this norm because they are misinformed

I’m from a place where if you make it out of it
You must forget about it
Never look back at it
Or it will lure you back to it
