Текст песни Why I Fight - Staar Joe

All this pain that I got bottled up
Don't expect a single call, naw they ain't checking up
They say they love but they don't show, man it ain't adding up
They stick around till you down, man I had enough
Yea
Lost my pops back in nineteen
Every since then things ain't been the same
I could never unsee things that I seen
Through it all had to keep hold of my dreams
Yea
Oh I been carrying a lot of weight
Life ah punch and knock you down just like a heavyweight
Sometimes I wish I could erase it all and get away
Lords knows but I been praying for a better way and better days
Pay no mind to what these haters say
But let it elevate and lift you up every way
Stand tall keep your mind on more important things
That's what I tell myself to get through each and every day
Yea

Tell me what you see, when you look into my eyes
They don't know my pain, it's enough to make you cry
But I will not complain, nor will I comply
Because I know the pain won't last is the reason why I fight

Oh My life gotta meaning
That's why I keep pushing throughout every season
I den seen people switch up like the seasons
When I lost my dad I just ain't feel completed
No one was there for me when I was grieving
The pain hurt so bad, so I just isolated
Through all the hurt kept in mind what was needed
I'm on my way to the top and I'm leading
They still don't believe it

It ain't been easy man
I swear man every since twenty nineteen it's like
Things just been crazy man
I had my up and downs
Had a lot of trauma
But I ain't never give up

Tell me what you see, when you look into my eyes
They don't know my pain, it's enough to make you cry
But I will not complain, nor will I comply
Because I know the pain won't last is the reason why I fight
