Moretime Productions - Obstacles lyrics

[Intro] You can't say no weapon formed against you shall prosper Then fold up when it get hard Let's go after it [Verse 1] Life was pretty rough for a minute there The status of your sanity was in the air Almost impossible not to consume hate When bad luck is living with you like a roommate The clouds got dark and started rumbling The rain from the outside was coming in You're trying not to panic but that's the case The water got higher, it was at your waist It's hell now but I ain't got to tell you that It's closing in on me, God where you at? You're hurting for some bread, looking at your son That lil' 9 to 5 just ain't getting it done Your partner's make your weeks pay in half a day Promise your baby mama not to get it that way Life's circumstances make it kinda hard to trust We always remember God is a part of us [Hook] x2 We overcoming obstacles and letting blessings in I heard somebody say success is the best revenge If you utilise the talent that was put in you You can master everything they said you couldn't do [Verse 2] See, all you wanna do is make the drama die Your daddy never claimed you and your mama's high It's hard to trust people, you afraid of help With no parents around so you raised yourself All your life people shooting slugs at you Every time you take a step they knock you back two Your house was like hell; years, days and months Next door neighbours' living like the Brady Bunch Wish you could've went to school and do something great But sometimes you barely ate and couldn't concentrate "You ain't nothing but a loser" that's what people said You ain't evil but you hustling for illegal bread You resorted to the streets and started getting love 'Cus the thugs was the only folks who didn't judge And even though you might have one or two stripes Deep in your heart you know there's greater purpose for your life [Hook] x2 [Verse 3] You can't let your dreams shrivel up, or burst and die Just because it didn't happen on the first try Or the second, or the third, or the fourth time Diamonds don't define greatness, let your heart shine You keep running up on these locked doors Accept God's version of a blessing not yours We don't always know what's best so trust in him because You don't even know yourself better than he does Satan's cup is full of hate so let the evil drink You too grown to worry about what other people think Spiritual war try to make your higher conscious win Even if the Devil do get a few punches in And we can heal to the fullest soon If we stop putting band-aids on bullet wounds Addressing problems from the root'll make you sober quick And watch how strong you get once it's over with [Hook] x2 [Outro]
