It's all a struggle
(Tryin' to make it day to day)
It's all a struggle
(From my hood to around your way)

It's all a struggle
(Single parents all by thyself)
It's all a struggle
(Diseases decreasin' your health)

It's all a struggle
(Fiends swearin' that's they last puff)
It's all a struggle
(Hustler tryin' to avoid handcuffs)
(No matter what you do, who you are or where you from)
(Rich, poor, black, white, at the end of the day)

It's all a struggle and most people's struggles are doubled
You ain't the only one with a challenge facin' some trouble
Look at the woman chewed up by the dog with no muzzle
Or the workers that got trapped underground in that tunnel
Some kids are playin' in pools, others in puddles
When they listen to the news the propaganda is subtle
But it's time for you to know that the cryin' got to go
Release the guilt that you built and let it flow

Slow and low, that is the tempo
Move slow and on the low, this you gotta know
You don't get the muscles without the hard struggles
You ain't the only one out here tryin' to get dough
From the hustler to the preacher, to the government leaders
From the airline pilot to the chef, to the teachers
We linked in the same huddle, in the same tussle 'n' bustle
'Cuz at the end of the day it's all a struggle

It's all a struggle
(Tryin' to make it day to day)
It's all a struggle
(From my hood to around your way)

It's all a struggle
(Single parents all by thyself)
It's all a struggle
(Diseases decreasin' your health)

It's all a struggle
(Fiends swearin' that's they last puff)
It's all a struggle
(Hustler tryin' to avoid handcuffs)
(No matter what you do, who you are or where you from)
(Rich, poor, black, white, at the end of the day)

It's all a struggle but don't let the challenges bug you
Or the government drug you, or the thieves in the street
Beat and mug you, build your tunnel under the rubble
Come up on the other side eye to eye with the trouble
Look at the Twin Towers crumble
Look at the religious leadership stumble, everybody struggles
But not everybody comes through nifty, it's fifty, fifty
The city itself will outrun you quickly

Whether you be healthy or sickly
Whether you be wealthy or thrifty, ugly or pretty
Everybody's tryin' to get 50's and 100's
I taught this at UCLA just off sunset
Now run, get, "Ruminations"
It's a book that I published for the healing of this nation
In just a few chapters we run through, some possible solutions
'Cuz at the end of the day

It's all a struggle
(Tryin' to make it day to day)
It's all a struggle
(From my hood to around your way)

It's all a struggle
(Single parents all by thyself)
It's all a struggle
(Diseases decreasin' your health)

It's all a struggle
(Fiends swearin' that's they last puff)
It's all a struggle
(Hustler tryin' to avoid handcuffs)
(No matter what you do, who you are or where you from)
(Rich, poor, black, white, at the end of the day)

It's all a struggle
