THE STRUGGLE
Patti Orbeck


if i would have let the years be teacher to my soul
if i would have paid a little closer attention when planning out my goals

would i have known compassion learned how to put other people first
would i have invested my love in myself would the road that im on now be so cursed

if struggle is the lesson its gotta be happening for a reason
pulling me along pushing me into a new season

if i had self discipline in my earlier days enough to stay the course
would i have been able to change my self destructive ways
would have i been better able to weigh my choice

if struggle is the lesson its gotta be happening for a reason
pulling me along pushing me into a new season

if i never made those choices and the price twice paid the fee
then i wouldnt be the wiser wouldnt know who i am and who i want to be

if struggle is the lesson its gotta be happening for a reason
pulling me along pushing me into a new season
its time for a new season in my life
