The Struggle

Life is hard, Hope I make it, It’s a risk, But I’ll take it, Feeling like I’m living Stuck in the basement, I’m just trying To get a higher placement, Life is hard, But I’ll make it, I can’t wait a long time I’m anxious, I’ve just gotta get off The pavement, So they hear me across The nation, Life is hard. Life’s a gamble, every step’s a roll of the dice, Chasing dreams in the night, pay the price, no advice, Streets cold, but my heart stay warm, I ignite, Hustle hard, every scar’s a badge, I fight the fight. Pockets empty, but my spirit rich, never fold, Lost some brothers to the game, stories untold, Survival mode, I’m grinding, making moves so bold, In a world where the strong survive, the weak get sold. Late nights, city lights, shadows creep and crawl, while I try not to fall. Every corner got a story, hear the sirens call, Trust is rare, even family can let you fall, But I rise like the sun, breaking through it all. Dreams of better days, I’m painting visions clear, Through the struggle, I found strength, I persevere, Life’s a puzzle, every piece brings me near, To the throne that I built, now the crown’s in my sphere.
