REAL STRUGGLE

Life's a struggle, shadows lurk, I fight the night, Sacrifice my peace, just to give my kids a light, Paper chasing hard, every dollar's like a lifeline, Buried bodies near the river, memories entwined. Heart heavy, mind steady, demons whisper in the dark, Call 'em beats when I spit, feel the pain leave a mark, Playing cards I'm dealt, but I shuffle through the strife, In this game of life, I hustle, keep my family tight. Echoes of the past, haunt me like a ghost, But I rise from the ashes, yeah, I’m doing the most, Melancholy vibes, but I’m searching for the sun, Every move I make, it’s for my daughters, for my son. Grinding through the struggle, I won’t let 'em down, With each step I take, I’m reclaiming my crown, In the depths of despair, I find strength to survive, Making moves just for them, I’m alive, I’m alive.
