Lessons in Struggles Lyrics

Lessons in Struggle

Life's the teacher and I'm taking the test

Every moment a lesson every struggle a quest

Pen in my hand writing chapters in ink

Learning every day it's the way that I think

Welcome to the school of life no syllabus

Every trial and error making sense of this

Gotta learn as I go take the highs and lows

In the school of life yeah that's how it goes

No rewind just the lessons I gain

Through the sunshine the heartbreak the rain

Every choice is a page every path I compose

In the school of life yeah that's how it goes

I've learned trust is earned not freely given

And the past is a place not a home for living

Mistakes are the bricks and growth is the glue

You don't build wisdom till you've paid your dues

Had to stumble through the dark searching for the spark

Sometimes pain is the art that refines my heart

Used to fight the tide now I surf the wave

Found strength in the lessons that the struggle gave

Every scar's a reminder every tear's a seed

Every setback was the fuel that I'd need

Looking back I see the map it designed

The school of life yeah it sharpened my mind

Welcome to the school of life no syllabus

Every trial and error making sense of this

Gotta learn as I go take the highs and lows

In the school of life yeah that's how it goes

No rewind just the lessons I gain

Through the sunshine the heartbreak the rain

Every choice is a page every path I compose

In the school of life yeah that's how it goes

Learned patience when the clock wouldn't move

Learned courage when the odds made me lose

Learned love ain't perfect but it's worth the fight

Learned growth comes slow in the dead of night

I've seen the snakes in the grass the wolves in disguise

But also the beauty in the truth of the skies

What's real lasts forever what's fake fades fast

Every lesson's a treasure every moment will pass

It's the wins and the losses that shape my soul

The cracks in the armor make me whole

It's the journey not the end that defines the climb

Every wrong turn gave me clearer signs

Welcome to the school of life no syllabus

Every trial and error making sense of this

Gotta learn as I go take the highs and lows

In the school of life yeah that's how it goes

No rewind just the lessons I gain

Through the sunshine the heartbreak the rain

Every choice is a page every path I compose

In the school of life yeah that's how it goes

So here I stand a student of the game

Not chasing the fame just embracing the flame

In the school of life I've earned my stripes

A degree in resilience I'm living the life
