That Was Life

It’s difficult with all the hardships I’m fed up
I say I can’t but still get up
Turn my head and I feel passed up
How all this stuff did I get in?
What makes it harder
Is everyone has an opinion

Can only go so far on advice
Then U have to look to ur self
U got to look inside
It’s a test of ur patients and sanity
It’s a test of ur pride

So if it wears on U and U still have something left inside
U know ur gonna make it
Cuz U were true, U tried
U succeeded through ur strife
Ure gonna make cuz of this experience
Cuz that was life
