Lyrics

For many years I've learnt to play the game 
Learnt to play it well
Getting something out of nothing never worked 
You got to give to get 
Never settling for lesser of, 
Than I felt within
I Deserve the lot
Made my whole career
Sticking to my principals and what I want
All I see, greater need
I will always fight the struggle 
As I live and I breathe
I will always make a hustle
Every step that I do take
Leads me onto better days, 
This thing called life, 
This thing called life
There were some times I questioned it
And was I enough?
I had to reveal my true self to love
And Prove that I was
I guess it only means that these tides have turned 
Chasing all those dreams that I knew were destined 
A fate only for me to believe 
The path that I see and show 
Guided by those unknown 
All I see, greater need
I will always fight the struggle 
As I live and I breathe
I will always make a hustle
Every step that I do take
Leads me onto better days, 
This thing called life, 
This thing called life
And it's all I see
How It's meant to be 
It's my destiny
All I see, greater need
I will always fight the struggle 
As I live and I breathe
I will always make a hustle
Every step that I do take
Leads me onto better days, 
This thing called life, 
This thing called life 
Whenever we say what we want 
It will manifest itself you gotta dip deep 
I just know I know I'm not going nowhere 
I got the fire burning deep inside 
And it's on to better days 
This thing called life, 
This thing called life
