Andre Brown (4/15/1986 / Jamaica)
The Root
Even though money does not grow on trees
It is still a bi-product of it
Sweet irony you've got to love it
believe it or not; only thing that matters is profit
cherish every moment and make something of it
the best things happen when you least expect it
and when you want it the most it seems you always get rejected
be patient and allow nature to take its course
in a second your life can change for the better or worse
a man is just a man but together we are an unstoppable force
have faith in what you believe in and confidently go forth
always act now but think ahead
always remember to never forget
never look back, what is done is done forever
never hesitate, never say never
