Story behind the song
Troubles. title of the beat, i ran with it
Lyrics
With open eyes I promise to find the light,
Keep on going, whether in the dark of night,
Or in the morning bright, no more mouring plights,
I must keep up the fight, no one can fight for me,
Constantly push against the moral majority,
Who embrace conformity, and never step outside the box,
They just struggle through the troubles, until their hearts stop,
And their clocks stop before the last tocks,
Tickin', they've stopped wishing, lost that a while ago,
They were blinded, side lined by the driving snow,
All dyin' slow, no one's trying to save em,
They've all met death, and they gladly paid 'em,
But he can't save em, only takes them away,
Hides them away in the darkness where evil plays,
And every day, I try and make the best of bad situations,
But this world ain't listenin, just givin in to temptation....
These troubles are what fuel me, to keep on going,
Be that beam of light in this constant snowing,
Ever glowing, Ever showing, the path ahead,
Being the leader for those who need led...
Never settle for less, than showin them success,
Until my last breath is spent and I cannot test,
I will not rest knowing I haven't given the best,
Of myself to these kids who have been blessed with so much less....
If I had the chance, I would show the world the truth,
I would step outside the box, walk outside this booth,
And just shoot for the moon, like a Rocket man,
But this world's got me grounded, because of my pockets... damn,
How can a man have a plan when he's got no plan at hand,
This planet's got him scramblin, and aint a damn thing he can do,
He wants a family, but he can't afford the food,
And if he gets the food, then there's no heat in the room,
And if he gets the heat, he's gonna be out in the streets,
Playin' matchmaker, tryin to make these two ends meet,
