Gary Soulz - The Process

You see the jewels, You see the lights
You see the views, you see the hype
What you didn't see was a time when brother was nothing
That when it came to hundreds, there was a lack of a abundance
Didn't see when he was working doubleshifts
Never mind a 9 to 5
Talking more a 1 to 6
When he'd ball up at the park, ain't talking 106
Blowing trees down was the only time he had a hit For real
Didn't see him in those light nights
Up putting those long hours in until the daylight
Didn't see him arguing with his parents
Bout how dropping out of School would be detrimental to his future and his appearance
Did you. nor did you see him when he was with that crazy bitch huh
Almost threw his life away for her
A place in time when he was getting his life out of order
A place that couldn't shine if you'd light a minorah
I bet you see him getting overbooked
But didn't see when he was overlooked
By the people in his own fucking cities dawg
Never mind the XXL's feeling like Tom when he got drafted in the NFL
Man what's the word, yes underestimated
See what most fail to notice is
Those we idolize behind the dimes and rolexes
Is someone that went through years of struggle
Before they even started revealing the puzzle
I'm telling you
Nothing comes easy
And with that I'ma firm believer
Without failure and pain there ain't no way word to Aretha
Yeah you gotta go with the motions
Gotta go with the calls
Gotta go through the bullshit
Gotta have hope cuz believe me you're gonna go through it
Before you even have a chance in whatever your doing
Blinded to think it happens overnight
Sacrificing for the life
But you can afford the price?
The process

I want to show you
That you know me
Take a look at my heart to see you're not different from me
We all go through
Through the same things
Have hope inside that you'll end up where you're destined to be
