Overcome
Andrew Restrepo
I'm flawed, I get it
I'm blemished, I get it
Picking up the pen
When I'm stressing
Trying to convince myself
Not to let it
Get to me
In my mind its embedded,
I know it's stuck, stuck, stuck
There's a war in my head,
I think that's something I forget to mention
I don't live with dementia,
I do things then I gotta fight to forget them
Yeah
I've never done well with commitment
No, and they say time will tell,
what will it mention
Got my list of regrets, I dug deep to accept 'em
Climbing and reaching success, making up the years of neglect, yeah
I'ma do what I do, live out my life with the fam and the crew
With little man trying to walk in my shoes
I gotta be careful on what I pursue
Let's go
I'm just keeping it real,
But I gotta stay focused
I know what it's like to feel hopeless
That's an emotion I don't wanna cope with
I know there's a purpose and I'm not willing to blow it
Get all these beats and I said these emotions I am unable to hold in
We will rise above
Through your precious son,
We have overcome
We will rise above
Through your precious son,
We have overcome
Yeah, I fell off
But I'm back now
Before the throne,
I'll lay down my crowns
Ice-cold world,
Ain't scared of the winner
Cause I'm a servant, yeah
Are y'all ready for dinner?
Ha-ha
Now I'ma rise homie,
Eyes to the sky homie
Ain't believing the lies
That's on me
Nah, nah, that's on me
You see this God I serve is bigger
Than these thoughts that you did trigger
Try to get me back to sinnin'
I'm aware of all these thoughts
You trying to speak into existence
You tell me I'm so unequipped
But who are you kiddin'
Then you mention that I'm sick
But I belong to the physician
He don't practice medicine
But brings the dead back into existence
I'm just keeping it real,
So I'm gonna stay focused
I know what it's like to feel hopeless
That's an emotion I don't wanna cope with
I know there's a purpose and I'm not willing to blow it
Get all these beats and I said these
emotions I am unable to hold in
We will rise above
Through your precious son,
We have overcome
We will rise above
Through your precious son,
We have overcome
We will rise above
Through your precious son,
We have overcome
We will rise above
Through your precious son,
We have overcome
