I come from nothing They say Hailed from a world Without silver spoon Diamonds or pearls Just humble beginnings In a small Council house But please Don't confuse what I'm Talking about Our community is Worth more than gold Without a doubt Supporting one another Taking care of each Other My friends' mother; Was my mother And I loved that That's the thing Nobody sees the way The strings attach They just want to Blame and attack Branding us all with The same filthy brush Without any prior fact Apparently We're all lazy criminals Our grace is minimal Their opinions are Cynical Without any Knowledge or fair Representation Some of the hardest Working people I know Have come from that Estate That coupled with Strength and morality Is a hell of a Combination We fight off stereotypes Daily They refer to us With condemnation Just to add to our Frustrations but We are higher Than their estimations Because How many people can Say they know their Neighbours On a first name basis? Or Walk into homes with Open doors to be Greeted As one of the Family? Chit chat at bus stops With friendly faces Always willing to Engage It's These moments That I'm grateful for Gentlemen opening Doors to shop floors And best believe we will Congregate in back Yards to party Laughter and jokes Nobody knows how to Have fun Like us Folk If there's a death We rally around The impact is felt by all Of us If Mrs. Roberts needs Help with her shopping One of our youth will Not think twice about Stopping They aren't thugs they Aren't taking drugs Just merely being young The newsagent Knows everyone Individually And best believe She still sells ten penny Sweeties Mike the Milkman Lends you a hand Lets you have milk on Tick To pay when you can We have some of the Most intellectual people Hailing from our sands Our streets are littered With gratitude for the Things that we have Not burnt out cars and Stumped out fags We have pride in our Homes Mr. Davies and his Large Gnomes Hedge hopping Snow globes Youth clubs and snow Days A multitude of parks Where children play And some say That our communities Are dumb plagued Well Let me tell you The truth We are proud people We are strong And undivided Hard working Intelligent Undeterred Focused Driven We don't forget our Roots Course hands And worker boots So Keep spreading your Lies Your myths Coming from a Council Estate Doesn't make me poor It makes Me Rich Wrecsam is the name That shaped and raised this Caia Kid
