Only The Strong Survive Lyrics

All my life has been an uphill fight

A battle against myself inside my mind

All of my life has been an uphill fight

A battle against myself inside my mind

And all of the pain hidden behind my eyes

I know that I cant give up or lose sight

And I don't know if I'm going to be alright

There ain't no way out and even if I tried

Keep holding this weight

Life comes with a price

I'm not going to break down

Because only the strong survive

It's late night an I can't sleep

So I pick up the pen when I'm antsy

An I start to write any damn thing

But you don't really understand me

Always the black sheep of the family

And all this shit really run deep

Growing up round all these antiques

And a trash heap

In the grand scheme

And yea that's just the life I see

I'm toting the weight of the world

I got so much shit on my mind

Igniting the fumes inside

Am I going crazy or on my decline

The fire that's burning

The weight and the burdens are lurking

Emerging

God what is my purpose

I'm running in circles and barely

Scratching on the surface

It's like I'm just supposed to be working

My life away

Am I not worthy of having some space

I'm losing my faith

I'm searching for answers

But you never answer

You took the only one that love me with cancer

I stare at the pictures

They got me so triggered

I'm full of this liquor an losing my temper

I'm quoting the scriptures

I Been on a bender

It's got me off center

Yea I Remember

September October November December

The chemo the tremors

I watched you fighting for your life

While I surrender

God damnit I miss you

All of my life has been an uphill fight

A battle against myself inside my mind

And all of the pain hidden behind my eyes

I know that I cant give up or lose sight

And I don't know if I'm going to be alright

There ain't no way out and even if I tried

Keep holding this weight

Life comes with a price

I'm not going to break down

Because only the strong survive

Going to spit a little bit of venom

Turn an instrumental to a victim

Temper mental when I scribble

I'm a menace

Going to need a minute

Where the fuck a pencil

Wicked when I spin a sentence

The sickest committed

I'm going to get it

I'm going to end it

I'm going to finish Diminish

You gimmicks who just mimic

Never learn to listen

My flow liquid

This survival of the fittest

So Why I got to be the nice guy

Why it always got to be the wise die

Why it got to be the night sky

Why you sneaking in the night time

Why time always seem to fly by

Why I got to struggle keeping my eyes dry

While the punk pussy mother fuckers

Doing drive byes

Nice try maybe next we can roll the dice

Why I got to be the psycho

Feeling so suicidal

Fuck if I know

But I know sign my name to the suicide Note

But until then I won't slow

This is do or die shit

Bitch my flow

Hits like an inside blow to your jaw bone

Prince spit nitro

My drip so hydro on the microphone

When I feel provoked

Bring nothing but the smoke

Won't sugar coat nope

Got a chip on my shoulder

It's a heavy load to hold

Still won't sell my soul

Never going to quit

Never going to fold

Bitch

All of my life has been an uphill fight

A battle against myself inside my mind

And all of the pain hidden behind my eyes

I know that I cant give up or lose sight

And I don't know if I'm going to be alright

There ain't no way out and even if I tried

Keep holding this weight

Life comes with a price

I'm not going to break down

Because only the strong survive

Hope is a dangerous thing

It can drive a man insane

And cut out his heart with the pain

Toting all of the shame

Taking all of the blame

Giving up on everything

And ain't no way it going to be okay

Stay digging his grave

With one little taste then everything breaks

Cause life been to hard and so full of mistakes

So he cocks back that bottle

And blows out his brain
