Difícil

The world gets tough for me when I can't stop thinking
Planning for a better future and things I want to achieve
I get discouraged when I think maybe I won't make it
My mind throws a thousand questions at me and I start to lose it

I start scrolling through statuses or suddenly see a TikTok
People who’ve struggled and have no other choice
But to keep pushing with the attitude I want
Always chasing after the hustle, no time for depression

And I realize it’s true, I lament everything
And when do I thank my God for the blessings?
I’ve never gone hungry, but there are folks who aren’t doing well
It’s hard to sleep hungry or outside a hospital

It’s tough not having a job and a family to feed
It’s hard not being able to walk
Being blind and still going to work
And while life is easy for some, it’s not the same for all

I’ve always thought about the future, and I’m not saying it’s bad
But you gotta focus on yourself and what you can control
What’s ahead is uncertain, only God knows
Your past is nothing now, better leave that behind

Get up already from the bed, there’s a ton to do
Get yourself a hard job and stop being so lazy
If you have no limitations, it’s time to take action
And watch what you say and what you ask of God

Change starts in your mind, saying I can’t is a mistake
Better say I’m going to try, since I already have the no
If I lose, at least I tried
But you never lose when there’s faith

Get motivated and look around, there’s always room for better
Be thankful for what you’ve achieved or for what you didn’t get
God has many ways to act
And He takes away when He’s about to multiply
Help yourself and I’ll help you, that’s what my dad says
