Lyrics | [Verse 1: $AINT EMPEE] Wake up in the morning with God right by my side Thank Her I'm alive Another day, another chance to survive Stress invadin' the land that I call my mind, why? Questions after questions, my self-image is distorted but I grow inside this sonnets that I'm penning not for pennies Nah! I'm talkin' 'bout for passion not for fashion 'cause I'm cut from a different cloth, and cut by my past traumas Music's what I do to heal my mental scars, it puts me in my zone 'cause I'm a spiritual warrior, got the word not a spear I'm a poetic soul, these words cuts deeper than the spear Had to know the enemies within me - my doubts and my fears Had to know the enemies outside me - my envying peers In my soul, I feel conflicted - feel angels as well as demons When losin', I pray to God but Lucy tries to pull me deep closer into her side She sees that sometimes I second guess myself, sometimes don't realize my worth I'm mostly down but Still I Rise as Maya Angelou Risin' just like the smoke into the skies Told myself that, “one day it will be a'ight and even if I'm not right I'm gonna fight through all these changes” yeah [Chorus: Alutta Doyle] You need changes in your life Abantu bekujongela phantsi I know it's been too long, ubanemibuzo You just gotta fight, it will be alright I know it's been too long, ubanemibuzo [Bridge: Nipsey Hussle (Skit)] The only distinguishing quality from me and probably whoever else's going through this, went through this, or going through this is that I didn’t quit. I went through every emotion to pursue what I’m doing [Verse 2: $AINT EMPEE] You might also likeThey say, “Life is what you make it”. I create it, I'm a God nigga! An image of a Supreme God with higher powers. I create these thoughts and deeds with powers in my mind nigga! I know my curses and my blessings nigga! I chose to follow up my fate, I know my fight nigga! What I'm in it for, what I do it for Lucid Dreamin' through this rhythm I can see it, I can feel it 'though it far Losin' up my mind for the cheque, feelin' drownin' in my stress 'cause I sacrifice my mental health for finding success My momma told me, “mntanam Qina” when I'm losin' my strength I choose to grow through all the things that I go through in my path The things they do to me, I don't do to 'em. I bottle my wrath But then it's replayed in my mind whenever I'm all by myself I blame myself because I chose to put myself in this shit I love the music more than I love me, started to hate on this shit Started to question, “Is this really what I want or I'm tripping?” “Is it my fate? And, will I make it? Am I made for this shit?” Life is a Bitch (Beach); you either drown or learn to swim in this bitch shit! [Chorus: Alutta Doyle] You need changes in your life Abantu bekujongela phantsi I know it's been too long, ubanemibuzo You just gotta fight, it will be alright I know it's been too long, ubanemibuzo |
