lyrics

This too shall pass
By Meryem Saci

Verse1:

Some days my legs feel weird
Some days my heart is tired
& my mind can get no rest
I
Lived a few lives in my years
Still young and full of fire
But I died a hundred times to resurrect


Pre-chorus

Escaped the war to avoid death
To end up locked up in debt
Slaving to give mama some rest
So she don’t worry about a thing. No!
Working from sunrise to sunset
Buckets filled up with more sweat
Praying to make it to next check
So I keep on telling myself


Chorus:
This too shall pass
This pain won’t last
Oh God this can’t be life
Something’s gotta give
This too shall pass
This struggle won’t last
Oh God this can’t be life
Something’s gotta give

Verse 2

Some of us were born with silver spoons
Some of us were born with sling shots
Survival made us bend some rules
Ghetto kids know how to sacrifice
Even tho all these wrongs can’t make it right
Can’t forget where we’re from as we try to rise

Pre-chorus
Still grateful to break bread
For this roof over my head
My mental and physical health
I dont take any for granted
We made it this far we’re so blessed
Give thanks and pray for more strenght
And that mama lives to see my succes
So i keep on telling my self

Chorus

Bridge Are we gonna be alright, alright alright Tali verse Bridge - outro Are we gonna be alright, alright alright

Outro: Are we gonna be alright
