Yes the pain may hurt
But I know it won't last a lifetime
Yes it's real, I know
Life can really sometimes blow
Don't invalidate, your feelings of pessimism
You should contemplate, ways on how
You can fix them
The struggle is real, I know
But it doesn't mean that you can't make it
You cry in your sleep, all day and night
It never is a lovely sight to see
And I may not know all the answers
You seek, but there's something I can say
The struggle is real
But so is God, your strength in you
Yes it stings so bad
To feel alone and misunderstood
People only notice the bad
And not the things you've done
That are good
Don't lose hope, my friend
Good things will come to you in the end
Think of the rising sun in the morning
That people often overlook
The struggle is real, I see
When those who hurt you
Seem to be full of glee
Don't you ever wish them bad
God will reward you soon you'll be glad
And you may not get all the things
You want, but God will give you
What you need
The struggle is real but so is God
Who's here for you
The struggle is real
But it's not the end for you
