1
The lord knows the struggle and he knows I try
2
I wont let nothing ever stop my shine
3
I know that something better is in store for me
4
Than this ordinary life that i lead
5
and as i raise my head to the sky
6
I know sometimes I gotta swallow my pride
7
Lord I know it just wasn't meant to be
8
This ordinary life that i lead
9
Imagine living on a mountain next door to the sky
10
Overlooking the tree tops watching the birds fly
11
View of a lake that will glisten at night when the moon shine
12
Imagine what that life be like,
13
no more hardship and drama
14
Just comfort and wealth
15
no colds and flu's we all live with inifite health
16
No reason for tears blood sweat
17
and every thing else that comes with it
18
we all Living with no reason to doubt
19
back to reality back to an unsatisfied salary
20
the day to day struggle that my fam suffers badly
21
and when it seems like it gets a bit better
22
gradually a casualty will take place
23
leaving people unhappy man
24
but still i move forward hoping for better things
25
and that one day I'll live it
26
instead of imagining my neck tilted up my head
27
to the clouds my feet on the ground,
28
come and talk to me
29
[chorus]
30
The lord knows the struggle and he knows I try
31
I wont let nothing ever stop my shine
32
I know that something better is in store for me
33
Than this ordinary life that i lead
34
and as i raise my head to the sky
35
I know sometimes I gotta swallow my pride
36
Lord I know it just wasn't meant to be
37
This ordinary life that i lead
38
Back to my life
39
back to my job
40
back to the slavehouse working from 9 to 5
41
Back to reality you know it ain't music
42
back to the dramas
43
the same old bullshit
44
the same old chores
45
taking tolls on my working hand the
46
Lord knows I ain't no factory working man
47
feel like my old man trying to support a family and
48
mad at the world cause the world don't understand me
49
Cause everyday I hope
50
and I pray for the right cause and
51
Even if my life gets harder I got God
52
I'm feeling so much pressure on my shoulders,
53
I'm brushing off
54
all the hatred in my direction I'm able to carry on
55
Yeah I know I ain't perfect
56
but you know I got to try for all the blood,
57
sweat and tears my pop sacrificed
58
My necks tilted up my face to the clouds
59
my feet on the ground I'm talking to you Lord
60
[chorus]
61
The lord knows the struggle and he knows I try
62
I wont let nothing ever stop my shine
63
I know that something better is in store for me
64
Than this ordinary life that i lead
65
and as i raise my head to the sky
66
I know sometimes I gotta swallow my pride
67
Lord I know it just wasn't meant to be
68
This ordinary life that i lead
69
Everyday I wake up I'm frustrated
70
it hurts not looking forward to a morning of work
71
Its like I'm glued to my mattress
72
why I cant get out of bed
73
the 6AM alarm's doing my head in
74
I swallow my pride
75
Feel like I'm tied up in a knot
76
like I'm walking on a treadmill
77
still in the same spot
78
9 to 5 minimum wage is definitely not for me
79
Me I don't need binocs
80
to see the amount of stress on my shoulders,
81
I'm only a man
82
So I take it out at the gym
83
and press as much as I can
84
I swear if this is life for me
85
I don't wana live it,
86
I know there's more in store for me
87
than this fucked up prison
88
yeah the truth is i made a promise to my family
89
that's why i have to carry
90
the torch like Cathy Freeman man
91
My necks tilted up
92
my face to the clouds
93
my feet on the ground
94
now talk to me lord
95
[chorus]
96
The lord knows the struggle and he knows I try
97
I wont let nothing ever stop my shine
98
I know that something better is in store for me
99
Than this ordinary life that i lead
100
and as i raise my head to the sky
101
I know sometimes I gotta swallow my pride
102
Lord I know it just wasn't meant to be
103
This ordinary life that i lead
