Lyrics Perseverance - Rochester

It's a hard knock life
But I still shine bright
Had to put my ten thousand hours in twice
Started from the bottom
Like a seed in the ground
If you reap what you sow
We eating all year round
Cause I'm built for it
Nonstop til we pop up on the billboard
Shoot my shot had it blocked but I still scored
With opportunities that other ppl kill for
What u think we here for
I know I'm blessed
And when I talk to em it connect
You ain't gotta pop a pill if you depressed
Life isnt about you posses
Life ain't checkers this is chess
Gotta watch every step
And face whatever comes with it
And if that dont work - then I'm good with it
My whole heart in this thing I'm in love it
Imma go hard everyday
I got Mamba DNA
But I never been a snake
This is how you change your fate
I had no cap and gown
But I still graduate
The mistakes that I made
Was my only education
Perseverance mixed with dedication

You gotta Keep going

Feels like the end of the road
It's getting harder to steer
When you losing control
Keep your hands on the wheel

Keep going
I know it's hard to get up
When they weighing you down
Anytime you feel stuck only way to get out
Is keep going

I wish my daughter could walk
And wasnt stuck in a chair
She was just 6 months
Tell me how that's fair
Wish my cousin was here
Felt like his work wasnt done
He just paid off all his bills to
Spend more time with his son
80 hours a week
Tryna live debt free
But that ain't how life works
That's why my fam come first
But this life move fast
Cant live in the past
So I make flight plans
Tryna make 5 bands
Turn 5 to 10
Turn that 10 to a 100
When I missed my son birthday it made me sick to my stomach
Cause the time moves on
You dont get that back
And tomorrow never promised boy
That's facts on facts
But I'm here for a purpose
It'll come to the surface
Im just asking for some patience
Promise itll be worth it
Perseverance is key
To accomplish your goals
Just follow your dreams
No matter what you was told

Keep going
I know it's hard to get up
When they weighing you down
When you feel stuck the only way to get out
Is keep going
