Struggle Made Me Stronger (feat. Alpha)

Imagine if you got what you want, every time No struggle, no hard work, no challenges No hard work required Some of you are saying, that would be great You would be weak Because you have never gone through anything that strengthens you I remember, cold nights, I cried, many tears Most nights, I tried to beat my fears Hard times, I struggled for many years I tried and tried but so many fails Sometimes I asked, why am I even here Sometimes I even thought, if I should end it here I felt like giving up, but I wasn't aware That some things in life aren't always as they seem to appear You see the struggle made me stronger (stronger) All the pain and failure built a conqueror What doesn't kill you makes you stronger (makes you stronger) And clinging on to life just built my hunger And I needed the time to understand It was the struggle that made me expand (expand) The struggle was a part of the plan The struggle made me who I am, ah Being backed into a corner forced me to stand taller Made me a shot-caller, the struggle made me stronger Now I'm a problem solver, I am a top performer I can do what I wanna, the struggler made me stronger I had to work harder, I had to work smarter I had to be faster, the struggle made me stronger Stronger than I remember, in every way I'm better Now I'm a one-percenter, the struggle made me stronger You're stronger than you think you are Don't forget that when the times are hard You might be drowning in pain, but you ain't out of the game Because you're stronger than you think you are The bad times aren't here to stay, they're here to pass Life is the school of hard knocks, the struggle's just a class Which you graduated walking on the right path You might not realize it, but you're stronger than your past Think back to where your story begun It's not what you get, it's who you become After the struggle, you realize you needed that lesson And when you look back, you'll realize it was a blessing And now you're stronger, you're faster, you're smarter, you're wiser You're a true survivor You needed the pain to change Because you can't see the bigger picture When you're standing in the frame Being backed into a corner forced me to stand taller Made me a shot-caller, the struggle made me stronger Now I'm a problem solver, I am a top performer I can do what I wanna, the struggle made me stronger I had to work harder, I had to work smarter I had to be faster, the struggle made me stronger Stronger than I remember, in every way I'm better Now I'm a one-percenter, the struggle made me stronger You are stronger than you think You've survived all your challenges to this point And you will survive whatever is coming But next time a struggle comes, I don't want you to curse the skies Know that it was sent for a reason and a lesson It might be to make you stronger, it might be to teach you patience It might be for you to show others your spirit, there is a reason So don't you give up, you have a purpose in this world And you will only find it if you keep going and keep growing
