Trials
J.D. Feighner Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Where shooting and looting happens on every other side
Mother work three jobs to provide for me and my brothers
And the rock of the family my grandfather
Faced abandonment I wasn't strong at heart
Blamed myself for years I swear it tore me apart
Brother in and out of prison wonder when it all would end
Then my nephew was born flipped life around for his kin
Seen them struggle and fail hope it never happens to me
Will never forget when my hero was lost in addiction
Locked in a room for days in a haze causing affliction
Then my grandfather passed since then we're never the same
Addiction got even worse having excruciating pain
Decided to write some poetry to vent my frustration
Praying we make it through all these trials and tribulations
Went to NA meetings to show support
But it got worse couldn't tolerate it no more
See her become a zombie & stranger from who she once was
Told her it's that or me I'm just helping cause of my love
Quit cold turkey became herself within months
Thought everything was good then arrived to that day and grew numb
Lived in a nightmare after seeing you unresponsive
Called the medics perform CPR said I know that you got this lord
It was the longest week of my life
How I'm gonna continue going without you by my side
Praying down on my knees that you get to have your redemption
God willing you made it through I'm proud to see your progression
The devil disguises himself as an angel in the flesh
You're stronger than temptation God's handling all the rest
By the grace of God you survived forgave you for every mistake you made
Always here to save you through trials and tribulations
True story
I can't make this shit up
But there comes a time in life
You got to figure all your troubles
Figure out all your traumas
Figure out all your pain
And make a way to strive through that
And thrive through all that pressure
Thrive through all that stress
But you got to find it within you first
It's just my side of the story
I love you mama

I don’t need reassurance with my ways
I don't require validation for the way I live my life
Selfish with my days I spend them tryna get paid
I prioritize my own interests and make a living through hard work
Never wine but I got hope I get better with age Perfecting my lemonade
I don't complain, but instead focus on improving myself and my craft
Keep it sacred in my space the lavender with the sage
I keep my personal space and environment tranquil with the use of certain herbs
When ever you get this high you sleep on the top of nimbuses
When you achieve great success you feel on top of the world
Jump on your bed and rain down on all of your nemesis
Celebrate your success and let it rain down on those who doubted you
Riding in a bucket tryna soak up all this game
I am trying my best to learn and gain experience from my current situation
Competition at my sweep I just slide a little different
I handle competition differently, with ease and creativity
Painting pictures with my penmanship
I create art with my writing talent
Bleeping out the sleepers all aboard on this censorship
I am ignoring and dismissing those who are not invested in my success
This here my moment I dont feel the need to censor shit
I won't hold back or censor myself in this moment of success
Cuz they goin find a way to take away my first amendment shit
Others will try to silence my freedom of speech and expression
I can scream oh lord what do I have in this poor world
I express my feelings of questioning what I have in this world
Only thing I count on is the love of my four girls
I rely on the love and support of the important people in my life
Keep my head on a swivel just in case the pave bends
I remain attentive and alert in case my path changes unexpectedly
Knowing that I gave it all when the days end
I am satisfied knowing I put in all of my effort each day
No matter how fast I go They say time will be ahead of me im just Hopin' that I catch my ghost
Time moves forward regardless of how hard I work, but I hope to achieve my goals before it's too late
Feel I'm gettin' close But they always say that
I feel like I am getting closer to my goals, but others may still doubt me
See you at the finish line
I look forward to reaching the end of my journey
And I don’t need your reassurance on the way
I don't need anyone else to validate my journey
On the day to day I’m tryna make a living wage
On a daily basis, I am striving to make enough money to support myself
Hearing all the whining y’all sounding like crushed grapes
I hear others complaining, making them sound like sour grapes
My lemons and sugar cane In a sense these incense are in cents
I incorporate my own ingredients into my craft, which may be seen as frivolous by others
I needed a change Something to get me a bit excited
I recognized the need for change and excitement in my life
Cuz now I’m pushing the effort to let them know I’m ignited
Now, I am putting in effort to show others my excitement and motivation
The flame doesn’t flicker it gets bigger as i fuel it
My motivation only grows stronger as I put more effort into it
With every line spoken the punches I can’t pull em and so
I speak honestly and truthfully, not holding back any punches
My platform will be used for the culture
I will use my platform to represent and advocate for the culture I believe in
Big plate all kosher, the remains for the vultures
I take what is rightfully mine, leaving the scraps for those who do not deserve it
Know I’m getting closer to everything I imagined
I am making progress in achieving the things I have visualized for myself
Focus on my focus I can make it all happen
By staying focused, I can achieve all of my goals
They goin talk give them shit they can discuss
Others will talk and create drama, but it is irrelevant to my journey
When its cold I just keep my dogs closer on the mush
When times are tough, I rely on those closest to me for support
On the hush see this touch you can trust aint a crutch
I do what I need to do quietly and confidently, not depending on anyone else
Shit is lush never rush, in the dust I can leave but they always say
I take my time and enjoy the fruits of my labor, even though others may still doubt me
And they say don’t go chasing these waterfalls but what of these pavements
Others advise against taking risks, but what about the opportunities that present themselves?
It got me anxious I’m racing
It is nerve-wracking, but I am still pursuing my goals
I practice patience I pace it
Despite the anxiety, I am patient and take things one step at a time
