Beauty In The Struggle

Have you ever had a battle with yourself? Had a battle with your wealth? Had a battle with your mental health With the mental, it's never so simple, to pick up the pieces While you walkin' on the beaches Sand in the feet don't make the cycle complete And, uh - you ain't serene with low self-esteem I just wanna dream about my goals and aspirations Damn a 9 to 5, I ain't got no more patience Calm before the storm, not warm in my house Just wanna break free and forget my whereabouts Searchin' like Roy Ayers, trying to say my prayers Talkin' to the lord, so I don't check in the ward I ain't crazy for the babies yet, cause the ladies ain't flock my way - man, I don't fret I don't sweat techniques of critiques, but I aim to sweep these heaps of the leaps Scratching and-a clawing, for the mornings I can function Trying not to break down, something like destruction I'm disgusted at what I've become, priorities I run from, no longer the Prodigal Son You give me purpose, give me meaning, kindling for fire I love the bits of the hustle. Why? There's beauty in the struggle You give me purpose, give me meaning, kindling for fire I love the bits of the hustle. Why? There's beauty in the struggle Beauty runs in everything, the air to the ground The lights to the sound and the suburb to the town I just wanna be where I get my peace, silencio, silence - whipping with the license So-and-so is talking to me, I be like (Hey!) I do not relate to your speech and what you say I don't care at all, I can't fake it today - your attitude and views with me Do not resonate Keeping up with appearances - like all the Kardashians and Jenners I thought I was a winner Something like Beck, the loser, thought I could fool ya Searchin' for my tribe like Boo-Yaa Searching for peace like the 70s, all the medallions, talkin' to the low key rapscallion Got a plan like parenthood What's not spoken on doesn't really need to be understood You give me purpose, give me meaning, kindling for fire I love the bits of the hustle.
