Mud

(album: Queen Of The South - 2021)

Don't cross, don't cross
I'm from the mud
Out here, there's no loyalty or trust
Prove to me that you are one of us
I'm from the mud
Out here, there's no loyalty or trust
Prove to me that you are one of us
Stop following the crowds because they're lost

I'm from the mud
Out here, there's no loyalty or trust
Prove to me that you are one of us
Stop following the crowds because they're lost
So lost, so lost
If I can learn, there's nothing to discuss
I am not the person that I was
I cannot afford to lose focus, focus

I don't care how rich I be, I still take DLR
Do for community, I'll always play my part
Look, there's no fixing me, I got a broken heart
'Cause the people before you, they took it way too far
No one was plugging me, I'm always taking charge
I got no time to live, I'm working way too hard
Building a dynasty, I gotta make it large
There's no day in this life that I don't pray to God

I'm from the mud
Out here, there's no loyalty or trust
Prove to me that you are one of us
Stop following the crowds because they're lost
So lost, so lost
If I can learn, there's nothing to discuss
I am not the person that I was
I cannot afford to lose focus, focus

I don't care how rich I be, it still won't be enough
They all rely on me, I'll do anything for us
Show me some loyalty, don't ever break my trust
Don't be out in these streets, baby, it's dangerous
I just pray the snakes will break away from me
They just take and take and take my energy
But I don't complain, the way they're draining me
I hope one day, they'll do the same as me

I'm from the mud
Out here, there's no loyalty or trust
Prove to me that you are one of us
Stop following the crowds because they're lost
So lost, so lost
If I can learn, there's nothing to discuss
I am not the person that I was
I cannot afford to lose focus, focus

I don't care how rich I be
