[male
vocals] (
Soft
Eastern
Nigeria
flute
melody) (
Deep,
steady
bassline
kicks
in)
Yeah
Life
hits,
but
we
stand
tall
Listen
I
woke
up
this
morning
with
the
weight
of
the
world
on
my
chest
Another
bill
to
pay,
another
day
put
to
the
test
The
streets
are
cold
and
the
wind
is
blowing
hard
against
my
face
I’
m
running
on
a
track
but
I’
m
losing
in
the
race
They
say
keep
pushing,
keep
climbing,
don’
t
you
ever
stop
But
the
mountain
is
steep
and
the
shadows
hide
the
top
I’
m
searching
for
a
sign,
a
glimmer
in
the
dark
of
night
Just
trying
to
survive,
just
trying
to
keep
my
spirit
light
Learning
is
like
sailing
upstream,
you
know
the
drill
Pause
for
a
second
and
you’
re
losing
all
your
will
You’
re
pushed
back,
drifting
far
from
the
shore
But
you
gotta
fight
harder,
you
gotta
want
it
more
Yes,
learning
is
like
sailing
upstream,
keep
your
head
high
Don’
t
let
the
current
leave
you
stranded
under
the
sky
Keep
your
hands
on
the
oar,
keep
your
eyes
on
the
goal
Let
the
fire
in
your
heart
strengthen
your
soul
I
remember
the
hunger,
I
remember
the
nights
I
had
to
pray
When
the
silence
was
loud
and
I
couldn’
t
find
the
words
to
say
But
the
beat
keeps
playing,
the
rhythm
is
my
remedy
A
steady
Naija
vibe,
that’
s
the
pulse
inside
of
me
Smooth
rap
flow,
like
water
cutting
through
the
stone
Even
in
the
valley,
I
know
I’
m
never
alone
I
pull
on
the
rope,
my
muscles
ache
with
every
strain
But
there’
s
no
growth
without
a
little
bit
of
pain
Learning
is
like
sailing
upstream,
you
know
the
drill
Pause
for
a
second
and
you’
re
losing
all
your
will
You’
re
pushed
back,
drifting
far
from
the
shore
But
you
gotta
fight
harder,
you
gotta
want
it
more
Yes,
learning
is
like
sailing
upstream,
keep
your
head
high
Don’
t
let
the
current
leave
you
stranded
under
the
sky
Keep
your
hands
on
the
oar,
keep
your
eyes
on
the
goal
Let
the
fire
in
your
heart
strengthen
your
soul (
Violin
swells,
synthesizers
build
tension)
It’
s
not
about
how
fast
you
move,
it’
s
that
you
never
turn
around
Even
when
the
river
tries
to
drag
you
to
the
ground
Keep
the
faith,
keep
the
pace,
keep
the
vision
clear
Victory
is
waiting
for
the
ones
who
conquer
fear (
Talking
drum
rhythm
intensifies)
So
let
the
flute
sing,
let
the
guitar
weep
a
melody
of
grace
I’
m
finding
my
footing,
I’
m
finding
my
space
It’
s
a
long
journey,
but
the
view
is
worth
the
climb
I’
m
rewriting
my
story,
one
heartbeat
at
a
time
The
struggle
is
the
teacher,
the
river
is
the
school
The
struggle
is
the
teacher,
the
river
is
the
school
And
I’
m
sailing
through
the
storm,
I
refuse
to
be
a
fool
Whatever
life
throws,
I’
m
standing
in
the
gale
With
the
wind
at
my
back,
I
know
I
will
prevail
Learning
is
like
sailing
upstream,
you
know
the
drill
Pause
for
a
second
and
you’
re
losing
all
your
will
You’
re
pushed
back,
drifting
far
from
the
shore
But
you
gotta
fight
harder,
you
gotta
want
it
more
Yes,
learning
is
like
sailing
upstream,
keep
your
head
high
Don’
t
let
the
current
leave
you
stranded
under
the
sky
Keep
your
hands
on
the
oar,
keep
your
eyes
on
the
goal
Let
the
fire
in
your
heart
strengthen
your
soul
Keep
sailing
Don’
t
you
ever
stop (
Eastern
Nigeria
flute
fades)
Stay
strong
Just
keep
moving
forward (
Fade
out
with
soft
keyboard
chords)
