Struggla Lyrics - Light - Matisyahu

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
