Cam O'bi - The Struggle lyrics

[Verse 1: D. Ciano] I get so caught in these thoughts, it's taught to prolong As true as it gets, I'm losing my grip tryna hold on But it's tough, going through hell when you're no Spawn Sallie Mae blowing up your cell like Gohan Left my city once I saw how bad the envying gets They hang like gangs, ya own Blood'll treat you like Crip How lethal I spit… tho this is GOOD music I'm embodying This type of flow ain't common, I'm far from Lonnie Lynn In all these righteous songs, I write the wrongs to right the wrongs Rehearsing conversing intricate verses with a microphone After their hype is gone, the dark'll show my light is strong So blinding that I'm finding that's why I'm spending some nights alone Don't wrestle or question the message… the lesson'll come, Brock Or what not, the people fear you being Big as 1 Pac Saw success through my pupils once this proctor was given one shot But It's awkward, this author still has Chakras he needs to unblock [Chorus: Tracy Nicolette] 1+2 never equals 4, silver spoons never feed the poor Everything isn't what it seems What does the struggle really mean? All I have ain't all I got, Sun still sets, if the clock stops Everything isn't what it seems What does the struggle really mean? [Verse 2: D. Ciano] What I showed you was unconditional, you know the consistency that could last But you held back on our future cause you got hurt in the past And it happened so fast, yet it left me so torn My love for you is still present, just my presence is gone Your exes made you cynical, so only my mistakes were visible How pitiful, having your teammate go against you too Being taken for granted we've both been there So why create the thickest of tension from out of thin air Raising your voice but got the details wrong I swear that choice make me wanna call her a female dog But, I'm too respectful, and yet, Did you forget? I'm here to help you Now This falls timing's Carl Thomas, I wish I never met you Cause it's hard to even bring your name up You were supposed to stay down until we came up I know the rain s**ed, but your mindset effected what was meant to be And now I get to see someone enjoying what was meant for me… the struggle… But I love you [Chorus] [Verse 3: D. Ciano] Caught myself stuffing my face, but forgot to say my grace And well, the bigger picture is I've started losing faith I know.. such a disgrace, I know I'm here for something greater But I've seem to let temptation, distract me from my maker Yea.. It's hard to be in this world, but not of it.. I discovered There's insurance for Saints but I'm not covered.. because it's This thing called lust, and I love it, I love it Plus at times those tithes not in my budget But it's never too late, to pray and ask you To detach me from these material things I'm attached to Creationism vs evolution, that there's pollution Dividing believers while non believers think we're stupid I went to service, cause as of now I can't accept my fate But are they more concerned with what quest I take or the collection plate Despite my obstacles, the Lord knows my heart I just hope I find my light on this path before it's dark.. the struggle [Chorus]
