Purgatory

Yo, I woke up today, checked my phone fast
Hard to tell if we're living in the present or in the past
Searching for words to express, nevertheless
Arms crossed, considering whether to invest in a vest
Acceptance ain't easy
But neither is humility
My abilities more valuable than ever
We need convalescence, cover the expenses
But mine a snail's pace
Quality takes time
All over their face, double down, your frown face mine
But found strength beyond what I know
Used to have it in my biceps, now it's in my flow
Push it everyday, even when I don't got it
40% done, mind says stop, but it's dishonest
Can't board a train and leave the station
Trapped like a convict out on probation
Elephants all across the nation
Let's have the conversation

Purgatory
Stress, then push
(Where trying is the story)
Purgatory
Stress, then push
(Where trying is the story)
Purgatory
Stress, then push
(Where trying is the story)
Purgatory
Stress, then push
(Where trying is the story)

This too shall pass
No idea how long it'll last
Things gotta get worse before they get better
And I know it hurts, I feel you
Sometimes seem like everybody gotta vendetta
What never was more important than what really is
Miss Mr. Mcfeely, wish we all one of his kids
Instead claim the high road when we hate the most ignorant
Does that sound fair and effective? Consider this
How we treat those that are stuck makes a difference
Shame motivates few, for the rest it's fuel
When the world's on fire, we must elevate the game
Respect may not be deserved, but it can be gained
So I feast like I'm starving even when I'm full
Responsible for my actions, let's pay the bill
Learning is like any skill
It requires environment, practice, patience, and will

Purgatory
Stress, then push
(Where trying is the story)
Purgatory
Stress, then push
(Where trying is the story)
Purgatory
Stress, then push
(Where trying is the story)
Purgatory
Stress, then push
(Where trying is the story)

Power hour, gotta stay focused
Love a super power, success only a bonus
Driven whether it works or not
Given more than most, but I know it might stop
Times are changing, methods new like the man I'm creating
Setbacks, remember them
Dig deep into my embarrassments
Lessons I cherish them
Internalized and wearing them
But I miss you like playing outside in July
We got things to discuss, let's go for a ride
Beefin outside, sometimes it can't wait
But I don't hate, how bout you give it a try
