[Hook]
Everybody’s fightin’ their own battles
Why we always gotta go and hassle?
Tear down everybody else’s castle
Everybody’s fightin’ their own battles

[Verse]
This for those hated in the name of Yeshua
For those strugglin’ to understand what God’s doin’
For all of those who wanna make it big
And won’t quit ‘til the day you see LA like a bruin
Take no shortcuts, don’t cut corners
The easy route only cuts life shorter
If it feels like you’re at the end of your purpose
You only get ahead on the flip side of the quarter
So flip the coin, go and get it crackin’
Things only change if you work to make it happen
You gotta work with passion
We fight to live a life that is everlastin’
Even if you sittin’ in prison with a death sentence
For ten murders you committed
You can still be given forgiveness
Through honest repentance
I’m no better than the rest of you
I’m not even the worst of the best of you
I guarantee we all fail again
Yet God still invests in you
He accepted you for everything you are
Every shortcomin’, every flaw
We’re supposed to be men of God
So I reversed limbo and I raised the bar
I painted a perfect picture in my mind frame
But Satan came around, playin’ mind games
My thoughts started swervin’ outta my lane
Only wanted to promote my own name
Stop, get your mind train back on the track
Snap back to reality and actual facts
He put my rhyme game back on the track
But I still feel like I’m all out of whack
I try to leave my mistakes in the past tense
But the guilt remains in the attic
I’m weaker than you could imagine
That’s why when I rap, I do it with passion
You ever see the chains in your eyes
And realize maybe you’re not as free as you thought?
Does your heart ever fight with your mind
Cause the world tries to tell you to be what you’re not?
Do you ever stop and wonder sometimes
Why you still believe in God?
In the end it will all make sense
I promise, believe it or not
TobyMac said it’s like the clouds of Seattle
Rainin’ on ya swag, fallin’ deeper in ya saddle
Satan’s comin’ for me, I can hear the rattle
But in the end I’mma win each and every battle

[Hook]
Everybody’s fightin’ their own battles
We all gotta go and beat the hassle
Struggles build the walls of our castles
Everybody’s fightin’ their own battles
