NOLA

(Chorus) From the streets of NOLA, found a mentor’s hand, Helped him rise up, made him understand, Gonna break the cycle, leave the past behind, With the guidance and love, he’s gonna shine. (Verse 1) Caught in the hustle, but lookin' for hope, Found a mentor, taught him how to cope, From the 9th Ward blues to brighter days, This boy’s got dreams, he’s findin' new ways. (Verse 2) Learnin' life lessons, from a wise old soul, Showed him the path, to reach his goal, From the projects to a future so bright, He’s climbin' out the darkness, into the light. (Bridge) With every word of wisdom, he’s growin' strong, Learnin' to do right, avoidin' the wrong, In the heart of NOLA, he found his way, Gonna rise above, come what may. (Chorus) From the streets of NOLA, found a mentor’s hand, Helped him rise up, made him understand, Gonna break the cycle, leave the past behind, With the guidance and love, he’s gonna shine.
