E Jay Chandler - Weary In Well Doing

I been putting in work inside of my city for year at a time
At the same I wanna call quits, I cannot lie
All of these issues inside of my city, I think why do I try
Not mention bruh the country
But I gotta do something
Tryna put up a fight am I losing my mind
I'm losing hope tryna do what's right
I know it ain't easy but that would be nice
Some people don't get it they don't even try
I'm tired of going back and forth explaining myself to people who don't really get it
I really don't see the point especially if you ain't doing no work in your city (Feel me)
Feel like it's hard to believe the things that I'm doing is making a difference
They say it's a marathon not a sprint Lord give me strength to help me go the distance
Cause we all broken, our world is all broken
Somebody else died another drive by look that's hard to cope with
I tell them to rise and beat all the odds but do they believe it
And things might get better I hate I probably won't be here to see it
I be telling myself not to get weary in my well doing yea
Lately I been tryna figure out what am I doing here (what am I doing)
The fight that's inside me I'm trying not to lose it yea
But I gotta keep moving yea (I gotta keep moving)
I gotta keep moving yea
Lately I been trying to figure out what am I doing here
The fight that's inside me I'm trying not to lose it yea
But I gotta keep moving yea
Can't please everybody they always got something to say
When you following Jesus look that ain't no playing it safe
Speaking the truth got him killed at the end of the day
The biggest revolutionary defeated the grave
That's where I found my hope and my inspirations yea
That's what keep my fighting for the hood even thing going crazy yea
That's what keep me inside of these school building with the kids they do away with yea
Even when I feel deflated, I see the fruits of my labor yea
So we gotta thrive cause I really refuse to accept that this is just going to be life
We organize, but is it all worth it yea
Gotta stand for what's right though I'm feeling discourage yea
I be telling myself not to get weary in my well doing yea
Lately I been tryna figure out what am I doing here
The fight that's inside me I'm trying not to lose it yea
But I gotta keep moving yea, I gotta keep moving
I gotta keep moving yea
Lately I been trying to figure out what am I doing here
The fight that's inside me I'm trying not to lose it yea
But I gotta keep moving yea
