Why’s there so much pain existing

Why’s there so much pain existing In my life I'm staring at the world through these tinted shades Feeling all this pain, got me feeling betrayed Why's there so much hurt, why's there so much pain? Everywhere I turn, it's like I'm going insane People dying every day, it's hard to understand Why's there so much suffering in this land I'm just trying to make it out alive But it's hard to survive when you're barely getting by I see the tears in my mama's eyes As she struggles just to get by I gotta make it out, gotta make it big Gotta rise above all this pain, gotta find my gig I'm tired of seeing my people in chains Why's there so much pain existing, it's driving me insane But I won't let it break me, I'll rise above I'll keep pushing forward, I'll show them love I'll be the voice for the voiceless, the strength for the weak I'll be the light in the darkness, the hope they seek I won't let this pain consume me, I'll fight till the end I'll be the one to make a change, I'll be the one to transcend I'm just a young cat tryna make a living But it seems like the world just keeps on giving Me nothing but pain, it's hard to explain Why every single day feels like a strain I'm tired of the struggle, tired of the fight Trying to stay afloat in this sea of plight But no matter how hard I try to resist The pain just keeps on persisting, it's like a twist In my gut, in my soul, in my mind I'm constantly searching for a way to unwind But it's like I'm trapped in a cycle of despair And all I can do is sit back and stare At the world that's crumbling around me Wondering why there's so much pain existing, you see I'm just a small fish in a big pond But the pain I feel is just as strong
