I know this life ain't easy and it's certainly not
Sometimes it feels like they purposely plot against me
But I can't stop working these blocks
I'm in a knot trying to make guap out of Hip hop
Trying to make dollars of my senses
Throw my sense in to make sentences and make cents make percentage
Senseless at times but this life is defined by
What we can create so I free on the break
On the beats when I lace em, like J's on occasion
But nowadays I'm on my grown sh**
Growing by the minute doing my own thing
I gotta be a man now
Take responsibility plan out
Stand out in the crowd like I never belonged here
They say they love you but they really just don't care
You wanna have fun baby we can both go there
I know that it's no fair
There's too much pressure in your life to succeed
But trust and just trust me and keep on thrusting
And keep on loving and keep on dreaming
Believe in yourself cuz nobody else will
I know how you feel so just Trust
Trust, (repeated 9x)
I know its hard sometimes
But you are not alone, and I know you got it in you
Just Trust
I'm just an ordinary guy trying to make it by
Trying to make a life out of writing my life out
Living for the right now cuz I'm not sure about
Tomorrow might never come today might be the one
I speak my native tongue Manila I made it from
That's why I'm always showing love, it's Manila in my blood
My grandpa was a guerilla, in the jungles huddled up
Machete ready to bust for freedom and justice
For people just like us and the fight continues
In our own life and struggles but I know you got it in you
Every day I contemplate, what if he never made it out safe?
He literally fought in the fog trust in God
That he'll make it back alive
To look at my grandma's eyes
That's something I recognize everyday that I rise
That's why I'm thankful for my life
It's the least I could do
Stay true pay my dues and make it through the fight
Fight through the pain for a slice of the cake
That's barely big enough for an appetite for a day
I write for the change in the world I wanna see
But before that has to be, I gotta start with me
I know this life ain't easy, it was never suppose to [be]
So here's a little hope to hold on to
Sometimes it's too much and I know that you're long due
But trust and just hold on I know what you're going thru
Just Trust
[spoken:]
We all have our own struggles
And it never gets easier
But we get stronger
Be thankful
Trust
