The Pain i feel is on steroids

Got nobody to lean on

Gotta tuck my feelings and keep going


Go hard enough you gon win

Gotta block out the distractions

Might have to separate from your friends

But it's worth it all

In the end


Verse 1


Every sense a kid

Momma told me i was special

Money low but i wanted all the best clothes

Had to get off my ass and go change it

Thank god for the hustle he gave me

I been on 10

Ima take it to 100

Where i start

Won't be where i finish

& i put that all on the family

I hope they all understand me

Its a lonely road

Where you tranna go

You just gotta see

What they cannot believe

I want you to know

The pain you felt before

you gotta let it go

So you have room to grow


Hook 2

I can't think about it no more

But it's worth it all

In the end


Verse 2


Road blocks make you

think you can't do it

That when you go harder

Gotta push through it

So many times

I was thinking bout saying screw it

Then i had to remember the reason i do it

On the other side

( YEA )

Its a better life

(Woah)

It takes sacrifice

For you to get it right

No one said it would be easy

Gotta find the strength within

Once you win

Everybody be yo friend

Remember who was with you

Only way it's gone feel pure

Hurts when they locked you out

Feels good to break the door

Gotta tuck my feelings and keep going

Go Hard enough ya gone win

Gotta block out the distractions

Might have to separate from yo friends





But it's worth it all in the end .
