Trouble Won't Last Always

Hi Cameron
This is just a reminder
That trouble won't last always

Trouble won't last
Trouble won't last always
Trouble won't last
Trouble won't last always

This is the
Part of my life I had to surrender
Took the advice
No longer feeling like a pretender
I worked hard and prayed for everything that's coming up
Whole lotta skill mixed with blessings and a little luck
But I'm stuck like this number tatted on my shoulder
That dog in me getting vicious as I'm getting older
I'm stone cold even stoic at times
Coulda lived a life of crime, instead, I shouldered the rhymes
I'm over the grind
Told Tony that I'm taking the hawk
Cause if you step into my shoes it ain't a mile you could walk
I'm done talking
Death to my fears, I'm done chalking
Telling every secret I have, no point in stalking me
I'm investing stock in me
I'm sacrificing social media for privacy
They told me play the game and I'll succeed
Between my work and God's favor I got all I'll ever need

Trouble won't last
Trouble won't last always
Trouble won't last
Trouble won't last always

I be talking to my mom about my fears
She the only person I know I don't have to wipe my tears round
Got souvenirs
But most are memories that passed down
Through all my years I ain't had too many peers round
People come around when they need you
Some genuine, the others wanna bleed you
Funny how the best leaders don't want to lead you
When you a open book people gonna want to read you
I never planned for this
By twenty-one I really started understanding this
That's around the time I finally started branding this
Lost a lot so mentally I had to start expanding with my purpose
Giving up on anything that's worthless
Fan of uncertainty but it still make me nervous
The Son shines on the darkest of days
I know trouble won't last always

I just remember my mom used to tell me that
She said, baby trouble don't last always

Trouble won't last
I know it won't
It won't last always
So keep your head
Keep your faith up
It won't last always

Trouble won't last
Trouble won't last always
Trouble won't last
Trouble won't last always

You know things change but sometimes
When things don't change
It doesn't mean that it's not a good reason why they don't change
I've even learned that
Sometimes trouble comes to test us
Sometimes trouble comes to see if we can stand it
Sometimes trouble comes
To see if we're gonna waver every time something comes our way
But I am here to tell you that trouble won't last always
Because God is able
He is faithful
And he is merciful
And I do know that if you just believe
And you hold on
And you believe and you keep the faith
Trouble won't last always
And if you look back and you see how far
You just take a look sometimes and see how far God has brought you
See how he's blessed you
See how he kept you
See how he has made you strong even when you didn't realize how strong you were
You can look back sometimes and say wow
I can't believe I made it over that
I can't believe I made it through that
But if you hold onto God's hands
And if you just continue to put him first
Let him lead you
Let him guide you
Let him direct your footsteps
Cause I do know that trouble won't last always
