Why is it so hard
To make it in 
America 2x
I try so hard
To make it in 
AmericaA land with milk and honey,
A land supposed to be built with love
It take love and understanding
To live and let live
I was born in 
Gainesville florida
I traveled for and widethen i moved to brooklyn, 
New YorkHad hard times...
