Today I finally got what the old man meant
You'll have your own and understand the worth
Full of advice, but damn, he was right
Every night, we took on the mission

We were born poor but rich inside
'Cause a hug from my mom means a lot
Four siblings, two small rooms
Nothing's impossible for my two brothers

Working hard and taking it slow
Maybe I'm moving at a crawl, but I'm steady
I’m not worried about keeping up appearances
The one with the least is the one who gives the most

I'm enjoying my journey
We don’t complain or question the heavens
Gratitude comes first
And we have faith that good things are coming

The simple things make me feel complete
Being a good person has always been my offer
Well aware that not everything's about cash
Or tell me where I can buy a hug from the old man

When the bag gets heavy, the fakes show up
I'm here for those who deserve it
Those who trusted me are always in my heart
A few turned away, but that's 'cause they're fake

I navigate life pretty simply
Not much drama, just want the real ones
Like when I had nothing
I can count them on one hand and still have fingers left

To move forward, I don’t rely on anyone
I don’t focus on what’s not mine or get hooked
We always show up for what matters
'Cause here we add up, we don’t know subtraction.
