k-rino - the struggle made me great lyrics

[intro]
you know it’s like everything that you went through
served a purpose: to make you into what you are
if you understand you embrace it
greatness is there for everybody, if you’re willing to chase it
let’s go

[verse 1]
i climbed a lot of mountains, i walked a lot of roads
i had a open window, that open window closed
i used to dream of blowing up, touring rocking shows
the more you starve for accolades, the more the hunger grows
i fell in love with writing raps, so i took my chance
had people trying to k!ll my dream, they said it wouldn’t last
and some were just concerned about me, told me go to school
said just in case this don’t work out, find something else to do
but i was never down with that, i practiced every day
i chose to go all out and let the chip fall where they may
i kept doing my thing and wash the doubtful seeds away
‘cos making a plan b would mean i didn’t believe in a

[hook x2]
the struggle made me great, the struggle made me great
i hurdled every obstacle and covered every base
i went from being broke to getting love in every state
depended on my strength and faith when others couldn’t wait

[verse 2]
i went the [?] circuit, i pushed and built my buzz
i was too young and underage, still getting in clubs
going to war in other hoods, trying to get a name
but when i look back on it now i had to be insane
‘cos my city was wild and i was living in the midst
but god protects the humble soul and ignorance is bliss
and plus i had my eyes on something i’d wanted for years
can’t win unless your motivation’s greater than your fears
you gotta take this serious, it’s not something you play with
plus if you want the prize then the pain becomes the payment
hateful words stated, and some came out my own mouth
got tired of doors slamming on me, so i built my own house
the fighting and the grind, is priceless in my mind
i appreciate it now, but didn’t like it at the time
scared to chase the finish line when it’s right there for you to see
but if you’re wise you let the bs push you where you need to be
confidence was big until you let the doubters shrink it
you heard you couldn’t win so many times you start to think it
that’s when you start to feel like negativity’s the norm
don’t be alarmed ‘cos motivation comes in many forms

[verse 3]
trying to break our behavior, with statements that i gave ya
and hopes that i can take your mind from satan to the savior
you gonna lose a lot of homies, right now you stressed and lonely
the more painful the road, the stronger the testimony
see i only eat the realness and regurgitate the phony
to everyone who ever spent a dollar with your homie
just know that i got love for each supporter that cares
asking me for autographs when i should be asking for theirs
see even slow progression is a lesson not to quit
and rejection can become the biggest blessing that you get
and the message that work ethic is a preface is legit
so is success predestined is the question i submit
see don’t minimize your purpose, ‘cos your dreams are yet to flourish
and it’s real easy for me to tell you not to get discouraged
my words are just a help, not to put you below myself
because i struggle with the same problems as everybody else
