Cj TruHeart - Pain into Purpose

Yo, born into the struggle, mama gone, daddy was a ghost
Neglected as a child, left to starve, wonderin' what we need the most
Sistas split apart, we bounced around them foster homes
Angry, trust no one, just me against the world, all alone
But deep inside a warrior spirit was growin' a seed
Plantin' roots to break the cycle of the life I didn't need

Lord give me a sign, to find my path and see the light
Break these chains, let me re-write my life
Lord give me a sign, though I'm surrounded by the night
Your guidance I'm seekin', let me rise up and fight

Yo, Found my way to the mats, Jiu-Jitsu became my church
Confrontin' demons, learnin' patience, humility and worth
Self-mastery was the journey, had to look within
Wrestle my own struggles, the real battle there to win
Overcame the odds, earned degrees, trained up world champs
Rebuilt my life from the wreckage, I regained command

Lord give me a sign, to find my path and see the light
Break these chains, let me re-write my life
Lord give me a sign, though I'm surrounded

Most couldn't make it, but I survived by Your grace
Time to pay it forward, help others outta that place
My Vision is a safe haven, a beacon in the night
Gyms, community centers, guidance in their fight
To any warrior strugglin', listen to my rhyme
Never abandon faith, your breakthrough gonna come in time

Lord give me a sign, to find my path and see the light
Break these chains, let me re-write my life
Lord give me a sign, though I'm surrounded
Your guidance I'm seekin, let me rise up and fight
To any weapon fired
Lord give me a sign, to find my path and see the light

So to anyone out there, facing their fight
Remember you're a warrior, keep your dreams in sight
Embrace the challenges, trust the journey too
Cause with faith and love, you'll make it through
So Keep fightin' the good fight, never quit, never cower
Your pain will be your power, if you embrace the warrior
Through love and belief, any battle you can beat
Written in my story, undeniable, straight up, concrete
