Living Through
Surviving the Struggle: Paul P Music's Journey Through Life
Lyrics
You don't know all the shit that I been through
The listener doesn't know about the difficult experiences the singer has faced.
All the pain and the struggle that I live through
Expressing the pain and hardships endured in life.
Now I'm rolling up these papers that I smoke through
Rolling and smoking papers, possibly indicating using substances to cope or reflect.
Thinking bout all the shit that I been through
Reflecting on past challenges and experiences.
You don't know all the shit that I been through
Reiteration of the listener's unawareness of the singer's struggles.
All the pain and the struggle that I live through
Reiterating the endurance of pain and struggle.
Now I'm rolling up these papers that I smoke through
Continuing to use substances while contemplating difficult times.
Thinking bout all the shit that I been through
Continuing reflection on past hardships.
Now I'm sipping on this whiskey
Drinking whiskey, possibly as a means of coping with difficulties.
Got one chance and it's risky
Recognizing a risky situation, emphasizing the seriousness of the circumstance.
So you can't play around
Emphasizing the need to take the situation seriously.
And I got my team behind me like a background
Having a supportive team backing the singer.
I don't ever back down picking up the slack now
Commitment to not giving up despite challenges.
Now I'm focused keep on grinding for my stacks now
Staying focused on work and earning money.
I'm feeling lost in this ocean where's the lighthouse
Feeling lost or overwhelmed in life's vastness, seeking direction.
I keep on swinging for the fence and I ain't strike out
Continuing to strive for success without giving up.
Yeah that's how I'm feeling yeah that's how I'm feeling now
Confirming the emotional state of the singer.
We're not here for a long time yeah
Awareness of life's brevity, urging to make the most of it.
This nine to five is a long grind yeah
Acknowledging the lengthy and challenging nature of a typical job.
Ladder to success it's a long climb yeah
Comparing success to a difficult, gradual climb up a ladder.
Now I'm sitting here making up for time yeah
Currently trying to compensate for lost time.
Man I took so many losses that I lost count
Experienced numerous setbacks, possibly too many to count.
I didn't know what I was made of but I found out
Discovered personal resilience despite challenges.
And this life will blindside you better look out
Life's unpredictability can catch one off guard.
These haters want to see you fall and get you took out
Awareness of detractors aiming for the singer's downfall.
Yeah, cause I fell on my face
Past failures or challenges are acknowledged.
This life is a race I keep on checking my place
Continuously checking one's position in life's journey.
Now I'm riding for my team you can tell by my plates
Supporting and working for the team's success.
And this life just threw a hook it caught me right in the face
An unexpected blow or challenge in life.
But I'm getting back up I'll do whatever it takes
Determined to rise again, willing to do whatever is necessary.
I'll climb a couple of mountains I'll swim a couple of lakes
Metaphorical references to overcoming obstacles - climbing mountains and swimming lakes.
Don't got time for the bitching don't got time for complaints
No time for negativity or complaining.
Now your going through some shit now tell me how does it taste
Challenging someone else to endure difficulties.
You don't know all the shit that I been through
Reiteration of the struggles faced.
All the pain and the struggle that I live through
-Now I'm rolling up these papers that I smoke through
-Thinking bout all the shit that I been through
-You don't know all the shit that I been through
-All the pain and the struggle that I live through
-Now I'm rolling up these papers that I smoke through
-Thinking bout all the shit that I been through
-Now I'm living with my choices, I just own my mistakes
Owning up to personal decisions and learning from mistakes.
Cause I'm Screaming fuck a handout I ain't searching for breaks
Rejecting the idea of receiving favors, preferring to earn success.
But I'm barely treading water and this life is the lake
Struggling in life, feeling overwhelmed.
Now the pressure keeps on building as I'm raising the stakes
Increasing pressure while taking greater risks.
I ain't looking for advice now I'm looking for space
No longer seeking advice but personal space to deal with issues.
Now I'm dealing with these losses but I know I hate the taste
Dealing with losses, dislike for the taste of failure.
Now I'm sitting back Im thinking as I smoke it to the face
Reflecting on life while taking a moment alone.
Now it's time for these apologies the timings to late
Realizing it's too late for apologies.
So bygones be bygones
Letting go of the past.
I'm all business with a tie on
Emphasizing a professional, determined attitude.
So fuck a shoulder to cry on
-I'mma get it hopping like Zion
-Let's raise a glass I'll toast that
Reflecting on past actions or writings.
Reminisce as we roast that
-How I wrote them and they ain't wrote back
-I'm never flimsy the goats back
Confidence in oneself and one's abilities.
I don't feel bad no not at all
Not feeling regretful despite past loneliness and lack of support.
went a lot of years without a lot of calls
-A lot of birthdays without a card
-I ain't got time for that so fuck a fraud
-You ain't there for me
Emphasizing mutual absence in times of need.
I ain't there for you
-You won't bleed for me
-I won't bleed for you
-All the hard times I live through
Resilience and determination to move forward despite hardships.
Keep moving gotta get through
-I got goals and cash I got to get to
-All these memories that I flip through
-If you can't relate than don't judge
Standing firm, disregarding judgments, finding solace in solitude and reflection.
I'll stand my ground I won't budge
-I'm sitting back as I burn buds
-I swear to god this life's good
-You don't know all the shit that I been through
Reiteration of the struggles faced and reflecting on them.
All the pain and the struggle that I live through
-Now I'm rolling up these papers that I smoke through
-Thinking bout all the shit that I been through
-You don't know all the shit that I been through
-All the pain and the struggle that I live through
-Now I'm rolling up these papers that I smoke through
-Thinking bout all the shit that I been through
