Songtexte S.OU.L. - Ace Hood

Some of us lose
Heaven or Hell on Earth, you get to choose
Sometimes we must kill the fire to reignite the fumes
Often we lose sight of self to find a greater view
Silence in those darker rooms, the ego gets consumed
Yeah, some of us lose
Yeah, some of us lose
Just to win again
Knowing every butterfly must shed its own skin
That's where life begins
Through my suffering I've been born again
Born again, born again
Through my suffering I've been born again

It's just me and you
And despite your imperfections, you still pushing through
Man, look at you
Some would say it's overdue
People come, people go
Shit, that's how the story go
Win some, you lose some
Get back up and fight for more
It's 5 AM in Saudi though
I'm in here doing cardio
Ritz-Carlton tenth floor
Baccarat sent home
Diamonds set pavé
Shouts to Don, you know
Good kid, mad city
My dawgs, they like Cujo
I was in it deep, playing hide and seek
All them painful ass lessons brought out a different beast
That trauma still reside in me
Generational curses on my family tree
Like how my pops really gon' abandon me?
Angry as an adolescent, wonder why I'm so aggressive
Healing is the sole objective, channeling my ancestors
Loving on my queen vessel, nurturing my kids special
Praying to a higher presence, rising to a higher level, I mean that
You can always get some money but not your time back
My granny took her last breath, she was waiting on me in fact
I know she proud though
Where your faith at?
Damn

Some of us lose
Heaven or Hell on Earth, you get to choose
Sometimes we must kill the fire to reignite the fumes
Often we lose sight of self to find a greater view
Silence in those darker rooms, the ego gets consumed
Some of us lose
Yeah, some of us lose

Uh, God's strongest soldier
It's the final piece I need, I hope it bring me closure
I may forgive but won't forget they tried to fuck me over
In the faces of my struggles, I still rised above 'em
I'm in the season of renewal and just pure abundance
And the road I travel rough and rugged
My kind ain't no dime a dozen
So much lessons in my line of hustling
But it was made to be that way
I was meant to be this great
I've been favored by his grace
I repent for all my sins
I won't be turned from Heaven gates
I was lonely in that darkness
But my mind could not escape
Its desires in my flesh
And I surrender to my fate
When I thought it was all over
I seen the light upon my face, God
How I beat the odds

Some of us lose
Heaven or Hell on Earth, you get to choose
Sometimes we must kill the fire to reignite the fumes
Often we lose sight of self to find a greater view
Silence in those darker rooms, the ego gets consumed
Yeah, some of us lose
Yeah, some of us lose
Just to win again
Knowing every butterfly must shed its own skin
That's where life begins
Through my suffering I've been born again
