STRENGTH Songtext
von Ahmir

Roll up a spliff just to finish the long day
Sunk in the seats, blow out the smoke
Long ride home from the workplace
Hop on a beat, pour out my soul
But words ain′t paying so I'm up late
Monday to Sunday, for escape
N hustling shit, ducking one time


I′m just praying I can make it out one day
Couple summers since a n felt sunshine
Lately feeling like I need some space
Tell me what's your definition of success
Want peace of mind? Or a piece of cake?
I'm tryna lead the blind off a leap of faith
This is a lifestyle, you don′t get a break
Give or take, I done gave more than I can replace
Honestly don′t know what's left to chase
Really be feeling like fuck it all
But I′m trying to get out of my selfish ways
My mama said I got a greater cause
Down on my luck been evading calls
Finna' drown in my rut if I can′t evolve
Got a pound in my lung and I'm faded dawg
We do this shit daily dawg
Monkey all on my back, trying to shake it off

I know you′ve been running you've been stressed out
Fucked up and your bread down
Feeling like your luck done dried
You can't get it right, but don′t you let them see your head down
Let them see your head down
I know you′ve been run, run, run, run
I know you've been running you′ve been stressed out
Fucked up and your bread down
Feeling like your luck done dried, you can't get it right
But don′t you let them see your head down
Let them see your head down, yea yea


I can't
Cause I′ve been getting calls every day
I got n living hard round the way
I be feeling like we all in the grey
Surrounded by the fog, trying to climb to a place
Where the rain don't come and your problems erase
Without death, is nirvana a thing?
Without stress, would a smile feel the same?
Been out less, Put my phone on a plane
Ring ring, sorry I'm missing
Sorry I′m distant, sorry I′m dealing with shit too
I ain't trying to dump all this weight on your mental
I know you′ve been running, I've been on a sprint too
Lord knows this world ain′t gentle
Find strength cause it's going to keep spinning
Don′t fold, don't quit, through the cold and the bitter
Stay strong my n, I know my n

I know you've been running, you′ve been stressed out
Fucked up and your bread down
Feeling like your luck done dried
You can′t get it right, but don't you let them see your head down
Let them see your head down
I know you′ve been run, run, run, run
I know you've been running you′ve been stressed out
Fucked up and your bread down
Feeling like your luck done dried, you can't get it right
But don′t you let them see your head down
Let them see your head down yea yea
