Used to sleep and wake up like 'why ain't God take me?
Had couple brushes with death and Satan's legs got shakey
God works in mysterious ways I seen that lately
Built my character but it's me that made me
Phone was filled with haters that I'd meet with daily
'Til I noticed they're fake or just fiending ratings
Rats stay in the sewers with the turtles training
Can't blame 'em though I guess it's just in their nature
Big heart still take you to meet your maker
Struggled surviving 'coz there's more important things than paper
Same time need my drink with no chaser
Tryna climb to the top floor with no elevator
No ladder but so fly I take a plane up
Chopper or train up then I parachute down
We all struggle so what is it you're bragging about
Leeching cling-on's ain't friends they're just dragging you down
Look through my eyes
Step in my shoes you wouldn't survive
The struggles and strife
Big weights on my shoulders still stay on my grind
Put me down still I rise
Gotta get mine
Even my watch different time
I will survive
Define normal to someone who's tapped
Some hear voices and some dish out slaps
Some are realer than most and some just cap
Some been diagnosed but like to play on that fact
Undiagnosed but know the system I ain't tryna be a victim
To drug companies tryna mentally imprison
If NHS ain't pay still indebted when you stop living
Now your kids' paying for your funeral and hospital visits
Dedicated still admit that many times considered quiting
More than music and rhythm I'm talking 'bout my existence
Small circle no squares so I stay in a prism
Never been caged but been in the system
Tryna live forever like surviving after I die
No need to resurrect forever I'll be alive
Lost faith in humanity still pray you get right
God's inside of you ain't one church that he resides
Look through my eyes
Step in my shoes you wouldn't survive
The struggles and strife
Big weights on my shoulders still stay on my grind
Put me down still I rise
Gotta get mine
Even my watch different time
I will survive
