Persevere

Chasing my dream so fast thought I was flying
My wife inspired this line while I was dying
Kids outside playing swore one was a giant
I'm inside fighting trying to find my Zion
Life just isn't complying tired lye in my room trying to find why I am
Left me between this rock and this hard place
Can't afford to be soft feel lost feeling my heart break
Got lost in a moment
But once it unfolds man it's hard to control it
Step in my shoes and walk for a second
Take in all my stress try not to pause for aggression
Have a baby mom still mad cause I cheated on her
Not while she was pregnant but still begging her to see my daughter
Hardest times in my life
Are seeing things could be peaceful but there's no God in your life
For that second though
Could you take the bullshit and let it go
Keep a prayer to myself only heaven knows
If I'll remain unforgiven
Forgiveness not on your mind so I'm truly unforgettable
Nightmares and bad dreams
My family members can't remember when I'm last seen
It's a tragedy if happiness ain't lasting
Get a grip and won't let the future pass

I rise
I fall
I drive I hit that wall
I walk
I trip
But in my heart that beat won't skip
I cry
I tear
And still will show no fear
I pray
To my God
With him defeat all odds
I'm just saying I'll try
I'm just saying I'll try
I'm just saying I'll try
I'm just saying I'll try

This ain't a song this is my healing process
Seeking God in a scene in which I'm feeling nauseous
My unborn might not make it here
Not for it but the Devil's here to make us fear
Make it clear
Live life lost opportunity
Make the wrong decision that instant brought on the eulogy
A part of me dies darken the sky I live for
The sun will soon set dig deep so I can give more
My mom lost her job I pay to keep her lights on
Never giving up since I was raised to live and fight strong
As my wife carries my baby
Abortion maybe
If another job can't afford to pay me
Shit is crazy
Faith strength I need them to joining hands
No need for separation see the patience in a growing man
Weight on shoulders is feeling like a warm up
I know there's more ahead so instead of feeling torn up
I push
Back against wall
Manic in this brawl
Staggered but I'll stand up if I fall
Shoot I'm even man enough to crawl if you think you're tough
I carry my cross scars ain't deep enough

I rise
I fall
I drive I hit that wall
I walk
I trip
But in my heart that beat won't skip
I cry
I tear
And still will show no fear
I pray
To my God
With him defeat all odds
I'm just saying I'll try
I'm just saying I'll try
I'm just saying I'll try
I'm just saying I'll try

I'm giving you naked truth
I say save the youth and I'm praying that you make it too
Make it through without umbrellas when you're caught in showers
Not a coward if you stand up in your darkest hour
This is for the hand without a hand to hold
I could be the man that helps you stand up when you're lacking soul
That's the role my brother played that gave us power
Towered over moments of silence that may get louder
Deafening
Let my kingdom be heavenly
We all made wrong moves now my queens on the left of me
She loves and honors her king
Always keeps it real so I made her part of my dream
Stay realistic in a world that's been real twisted
I'm the butterfly that flutters by and feels gifted
Landing on a palm feel the calming breeze
Got a song to sing and sing it loud until we all believe
If you're caught by life's sucker punch
Duck another uppercut but feeling like your numbers up
Suck it up thinking that this life is tough
I'm saying you ain't tough enough

I rise
I fall
I drive I hit that wall
I walk
I trip
But in my heart that beat won't skip
I cry
I tear
And still will show no fear
I pray
To my God
With him defeat all odds
I'm just saying I'll try
I'm just saying I'll try
I'm just saying I'll try
I'm just saying I'll try
