Winonas Song by Ruslan Lyrics
(Verse 1: Ruslan)
This is for my sister
She fresh off of the bus
Can't lie I really missed her
I'm glad she came back to us
Left home with a early mind state
Family life turned sideways
90's had a higher crime rate
There's a whole lot to discuss
Broken families caused casualties
So the offspring formed their own thing
It's a gangster party now west side of town
In the rider now what you think
Putting in work, piece in her purse
And she got hands make her feel her hurt
But lighten up the mood
Respected by the dudes
Living in the dark but lightens up the room
(Hook: MannyWellz)
In and out
Straight from the bottom now to the top
Do you believe that I'm here to stay
I will not turn no I'm here to stay
I'm here to stay
(Verse 2: Ruslan)
Now my sister went from
Trapping and robbing too
Who wanna problem, you?
We can resolve it
She can recall
The day she had her first born
For a moment felt so transformed
Single mother with her heart torn
Not sure what she should do
Why call it crime, they became the hustle tho
Hard to be living all kinds of broke
Check fraud was the best job
For somebody who ain't had they diploma
That came along with prison time
Hard drugs missing line
Her mind before she could realise
A decade went by of missing time
(Hook: MannyWellz)
In and out
Straight from the bottom now to the top
Do you believe that I'm here to stay
I will not turn no I'm here to stay
I'm here to stay
(Verse 3: Ruslan)
Now I done seen her come in and out
Several times been to prison now
This time, claims it's different now
Coz she's chosen to go a different route
Well aight, we gone see
I be sceptical man that's me
What unfolded right before my eyes
These past eighteen months could only be described
As a move of God
She's finally free
Been sober for like two years now
Ain't even tempted to smoke weed
And the scales finally fell from her eyes
She did the work coz she recognised
Everything she lost she get it back
Reconciled with every one of her kids in fact
They love her as a mom
Happy to meet the siblings
They never knew existed
She continues building this life for herself
While I just wanna spoil my niece with attention, joy in my world
Happy her and Levi would grow up together
Holidays and road trips can't get any better
Tryna think how I can get my sister involved
Coz she's way more than just my sister in law
She reminds me why I've been doing this all
Impressing to the Lord even though it's been hard
And who would have thought such inspiration
Would come from a life that's been so tainted
It's been hard yeah we know it's true
But God takes our crooked sticks and makes em adjacent
Puts people in our lives for motivation
From unlikely places
This Is my thank you
(Hook: MannyWellz)
