Open up the gate
Let my prayer rise up
And I struggle every day just to get myself up
For the force of gravity that keeps sinking my ship
Time again one is bound to slip
We rip through these days
We flip through the age
Survive stay alive we won't trip in the haze
Lost in the maze
I know it's just a phase
But I dread it dread it dread it
I won't let my life go to waste
I'm a struggla
Rise and never fall cause I been through it all
So ask yourself and think twice
Would you want to live your life
Oh we pay the cost
The pain and all the loss
Sell the youth them dreams of ease and fame
Will be a breeze when you got a big name
Cash fast fast cars to escape all of the pain
Escape your brain and so it stays the same
We would not lay down
We won't live in vain
We won't be drained
And I got to maintain
I won't let my life go to waste
I'm a struggla
Rise and never fall cause I been through it all
So ask yourself and think twice
Would you want to live your life
Oh we pay the cost
The pain and all the loss
There's something wrong with the system
That leaves it's people victim
Keep on slipping can't seem to catch up
Try to rise at night but my legs they stay stuck
There's something wrong in the system
That leaves it's children victim
...
I won't let my life go to waste
I'm a struggla
Rise and never fall cause I been through it all
So ask yourself and think twice
Would you want to live your life
Oh we pay the cost
The pain and all the loss
Oh we pay the cost
The pain and all the loss
Rise and never fall cause I been through it all
So ask yourself and think twice
Would you want to live your life
Oh we pay the cost
The pain and all the loss
...
Open up the gates let my prayer rise up
Oh we pay the cost
The pain and all the loss
