They say you can’t appreciate the sunshine without the pain

Well this shit is driving me insane

‘Cause why you gotta hurt like this?

Why all of the good motherfuckers gotta go through shit?

But I get it though

It’s just a test

Taking all that I have and trying me for my best

And tryna get me to neglect

The fact that God has his hand on me

Tryna get me in disbelief

Tryna stand on me

But if he did it before, he’ll do it

I believe in his word, cause it’s true and

Nothing can move me

My faith is heavyweight

I’m moving at a steady pace

I already ate

Man I’ve been there and done that

But here I am

Lightly afflicted, but I’m still going in

The clock is ticking

The devil think he got me, but that nigga, he’ll never win

Nah

On to the next

My complexion got me feeling like I wasn’t for the best

The progression of success is an understatement

I bust my ass on the grind just to make a statement

But

What am I saying?

Nothing is free

It’s always a price to pay

So I’ma do me

As the song cry and my soul weep

Understand God ain’t put me here to be weak

I know He got me but this shit a challenge

Battle after battle man I’m running out of mileage

Niggas still hating?

Stop it man that shit is childish

I got my own set of shit I’m tryna get up out of

I disobeyed god now I’m tryna figure out if

The trust is the same

I’m the blame

Let my ego take the reigns

Now I’m sitting wallowed deep in my shame

What can I say?

Trail and error, right?

I lost sight

It hit different when yo feelings flight

I just might

Go numb to the world

Nothing matters but my kids and my girl...

I’m just tryna make a win before I curl

Manipulate the system and make a win for this world

But the ending never ends fair

I blow the smoke in the air

As the glory resonates in my ear

Believe me when I spit

This shit is sincere

Now let me say my farewells before I disappear
