The Struggle歌詞

[00:11.61]Even though it doesn't show
[00:17.26]Sometimes my shoulders get sore
[00:20.29]From carrying what feels like the world
[00:23.07]But I thank God that I'm alright
[00:29.18]No one else can carry the load
[00:32.09]That's why I never gave into
[00:35.20]The struggle
[00:36.07]Yeah, Lord give me strength for this cross
[00:39.21]Through this forgiveness with every day that I lost
[00:41.94]Mind full of the evil that people against you be lovin'
[00:45.04]I'm filled with the corruption of sin, sick, and destruction, yeah
[00:48.34]So many skeletons my mind's become a grave site
[00:51.11]Spirit so afflicted it's been hard for me to pray at night
[00:54.11]Bring into perfection a sinner that lay with the lies
[00:56.88]Filled with the pride that cast Lucifer out of the sky
[00:59.82]My mind lust-driven
[01:01.79]Can't keep it off these women
[01:03.27]They hittin' my seven on the daily to come and get it
[01:06.15]Mailin' in every day I wake, attacked by all the bigotry
[01:09.04]Praying for the fruit of the spirit but need a bigger tree
[01:11.90]Even though it doesn't show
[01:17.17]Sometimes my shoulders get sore
[01:20.17]From carrying what feels like the world
[01:23.03]But I thank God that I'm alright
[01:29.20]No one else can carry the load
[01:31.96]That's why I never gave into
[01:34.99]The struggle
[01:36.02]At the end of the day I'm just a broken vessel
[01:39.14]Tired and stressed out looking for an escape route
[01:42.25]And for the longest there was nights filled with fornication - even wives givin' into my affirmation
[01:48.52]I tried to mask it prayin' it don't ever reach the surface
[01:51.26]I look at my choices and often question: was it worth it?
[01:54.30]The fact that I still question that's crazy to me
[01:56.87]I lowered my core values knowin' none of that garbage was funny
[02:00.39]Got me feelin' bummy
[02:01.81]They came to steal and kill
[02:03.19]And I ain't lyin' when I tell you that the struggle's real
[02:06.27]Hands together, prayin' daily for holy ambitions
[02:09.14]And the pure heart fully up to God's vision
[02:11.75]Even though it doesn't show
[02:17.19]Sometimes my shoulders get sore
[02:20.14]From carrying what feels like the world
[02:23.07]But I thank God that I'm alright
[02:29.07]No one else can carry the load
[02:32.20]That's why I never gave into
[02:35.10]The struggle
[02:43.01]
