The Struggle

Elli Hekima - The Struggle

Lyrics

Intro
Yuh
Kronik
We out here
Making music
Welcome 
Let me tell you a lil story
About my life
(Triheart go hard)

First Verse
Been almost 2 years, since the ket and the knife 
Never knew selling a line could cause me so much strife 
Shit fucked me up, I can’t really lie
Love turned to hate, old friends fiending on my supply
I was alone with Addiction, depression, I wanted to die
So I spent a whole year straight getting motherfuckin high (Fried)
I got sober in September, things finally looking up
Hooked on journalism shit, felt like it might turn my luck 
Then I lost my job, nah what the fuck? (Nah)
Relapsed on the dope, but I’m broke now not a single buck
Times like that, yeah it really felt like I was stuck
And so my struggle continued, yeah, I might as well get drunk

Hook
This is my struggle 
Too much on my mind, yeah this shit too much to juggle
Sometimes it feels like my life gon turn to some rubble
Pour that drink in my cup, yeah make that shit a double
And I ain’t tryna be subtle, might just look for some trouble 
Just need me some love yeah just need me a girl to cuddle
I just hope I get out of this tunnel
Looking for a light, baby please end my struggle, please end this struggle

Second Verse
Gotta meet new people but I lowkey be shy,
So I pop these drugs and I go to the sky (Mhm)
Smoked some dope yeah that shit kinda nice
Tried some shrooms, bad tripped my first time (Yuh)
Tried it again, man that shit was sublime
Acid now, wowwwwwww
Poppin molly getting geeked up at Matt’s crib (Ayy)
19 poppin drugs, that shit wasn’t no fib 
Ketamine lowkey fucked me up, horsin around, playin tunes, no drink in my cup
Taking bars for fun but they mainly to comedown
Nitrous oxide really took away my frown
Kratom made me sick, blacked out, fuck that shit (fuck it)
Took some speed at the spot by the tracks (Traxide)
Turnt up yeah my whole squad took it to the max
Now we lowkey poppin oxys and percs,
30 make me feel great, every single time 
Can’t fuck around, might be my demise

Hook
This is my struggle 
Too much on my mind, yeah this shit too much to juggle
Sometimes it feels like my life gon turn to some rubble
Pour that drink in my cup, yeah make that shit a double
And I ain’t tryna be subtle, might just look for some trouble 
Just need me some love yeah just need me a girl to cuddle
I just hope I get out of this tunnel
Looking for a light, baby please end my struggle, please end this struggle

Outro
Yuh
Shit lookin up though
Got a new job, pays pretty well
Making music
Turning up
Summertime
Life kinda good, lowkey, can't complain right now
Let me just light up real quick though

In Solace Zhake delves deep into the inner workings of the mind with an introspective rap that doubles as a heart-to-heart with himself. The track embodies raw vulnerability and the cathartic power of self-reflection, pairing candid lyrics with a hypnotic hip-hop beat.

The song captures the tension between chaos and calm, showcasing Zhake’s struggle with self-doubt, emotional outbursts, and the constant search for balance. It's not just a rap—it's a diary entry, an open mic to the inner voice that helps him navigate life’s turbulence.

With lines like “I found solace by talking to me” and “Write my music to relate with my past,” Zhake invites listeners into a space of honest self-expression, proving that sometimes the only person you need to hear is yourself. Whether it’s tackling negativity, embracing solitude, or fighting to stay on track, “Solace” serves as both a personal mantra and an anthem for those finding strength within their own struggles.

Perfect for late-night introspection or moments of emotional release, this track reminds us that self-talk can be the ultimate tool for healing and growth.

Solace

The struggle's real, I swear to God
When life knocks you down, you beat the odds
When they don't believe, you gotta keep on goin'
You gotta have faith, it will keep you goin'

The worst type of ignorance comes from people that you love
And the best type of blessings, well, that comes from above
Every day, I'm on a search for the plug
Who is it? It's me, God and Mother Earth, it's us
Rappers too emotional, they really need a hug
Got more reasons to rap than just sellin' drugs
It's deeper than the fame, deeper than the buzz
Got one more reason and that's 'cause

The 44th and the 43rd Presidents of America are cousins
Shit, you think that's somethin'?
'Fore you judge 'em, take a look at your own life
Then come back, tell me if that's somethin'
And what's the outcome when you see the consequences?
Would you look at it in disgust or in acceptance?
But if you could learn somethin', that's a lesson
Or maybe a blessin', you better keep on steppin'

The struggle's real, I swear to God
When life knocks you down, you beat the odds
When they don't believe, you gotta keep on goin'
You gotta have faith, it will keep you goin'

I'm talkin' new ideas, ain't no exceptions
My opponents, that's the battle between the ignorance and the blessings
I just turned on my game, learned a couple new lessons
Now I live a lifestyle based off questions
'Cause what you say is not always what you mean

You ever seen a good girl turn mean?
You ever seen a hoe change and get a ring?
You ever seen the next President come up out the streets?
When you see it, will you believe it?
Will you follow, will you lead it?
Would you jump ship, try to leave it?
You better ride it out like a G, kid

The struggle's real, I swear to God
When life knocks you down, you beat the odds
When they don't believe, you gotta keep on goin'
You gotta have faith, it will keep you goin'
