Lyrics See the Light - Smif-N-Wessun

See the Light

Love is pain, my momma showed me the way
The day she pushed me out her womb and told me nigga get paid
Stay focused when them obstacles, get in your way
Can’t let these opportunities keep gettin' away
It gets hard tryin' to juggle these responsibilities
But it’s a beautiful struggle, you can ask Kweli
After the rain falls, see the rainbow in the sky
Auntie passed, see the pain go away when she died
Youngin' looked me in the eyes, said he can’t even cry
Asked him why?
She in a better place now' he replied
Can’t be walking with my face down
Face frown fed up, Bob Marley told me get up
Pac said keep ya head up
Try or fail or fail or try, this ain’t about never falling
It’s about how ya rise
Can’t judge by the surface, it’s about what’s inside
You only reach a destination if you willing to ride
This ain’t no sad song rap or a track you relax on
This to help you stand strong while you getting your cash on
Ain’t no looking back now son, word we came mad far
Whoever said it’s easy living life as a rap star
You get knocked down, you get back up
You wanna live this lifestyle, you gotta be tough
The chips fall where they may so the bricks stack up
The number one rule of making it is never give up
Keep on
