Seasons
This life can be so hard
So many days only months apart
Got summer ways and winter hearts
Yeah we fall but we spring right up
I was lost so long now I found the Haqq
The path I walk is from above
Cause all we need is his love
And now I know

The darkest moment is when the brightest lights are shining
The hardest part of growth is when your friends will fade
The ones you thought was your day 1’s
They gon’ switch up like seasons
You could always plan but
Will never know the end

I used to think my time it all went to waste
Had I not made mistakes today I wouldn’t change
But now it makes sense
Though I’m not perfect
No more wandering a path that is stray

I used to be the type to not care much
Kicked up dust
Kicked it with the wrong crew
Felt not much to lose
Kept my feelings bottled in
In my mind I was wandering
Wondering
When the pain will end
Late night to the am
No sleep I was playing
My mom was always stressing
Up all night and she was praying
Bearing my weight on her chest
Will just make me regret
Every decision I made
That's when I started to change
Rearranging
The people I would hang with
I started turning to the deen
And many friends were fading
My heart was always swaying
Every day I did the same things
My akhs tried to remind me
But you know I didn't listen
Like homie why you tripping
Let me go about my mission
Product of the system
But everything is written
Life lessons
I used to always question
In salat id find my answers
Connecting
Spiritually investing
The best thing I did
Faith gonna rise and fall
But feelings always change
Just like the summer turns to fall
Friends will leave
Just like the leaves and now they gone
They was never day ones all along
This life can be so hard
So many days only months apart
Got summer ways and winter hearts
Yeah we fall but we spring right up
I was lost so long now I found the Haqq
The path I walk is from above
Cause all we need is his love
And now I know

I used to think my time it all went to waste
Had I not made mistakes today I wouldn’t change
But now it makes sense
Though I’m not perfect
No more wandering a path that is stray
