artist : matisyahu
song : struggla
album : light

intro : Am Em x4

Am
open up the gate let my prayer rise up
Em
and i struggle every day just to get myself up
Am
for the force of gravity that keeps sinking my ship
Em
time again one is bound to slip
Am
we rip through these days we flip through the age
Em
survive stay alive we won’t trip in the haze
Am
lost in the maze i know it’s just a phase
Em
but i dread it dread it dread it

chorys :
Am
but i won’t let my life go to waste
Em
i’m a struggla
Am
rise and never fall cause i been through it all
Em
i’m a struggla
Am
so ask yourself and think twice would you want to live your life
Em
i’m a struggla

oh we pay the cost the pain and all the loss
Em
of a struggla

Am
sell the youth them dreams of ease and fame
Em
life will be a breeze when you got a big name
Am
cash fast fast cars to escape all of the pain
Em
escape your brain and so it stays the same
Am
we would not lay down
Em
we won’t live in vain
Am
we won’t be drained
Em
and i got to maintain

chorus

Dm
there’s something wrong with the system
Am
that leaves it’s people victim
Dm
keep on slipping can’t seem to catch up
Am
try to rise at night but my legs they stay stuck
Dm
there’s something wrong in the system
Am
that leaves it’s children victim
