Akira The Don, David Goggins - From Suffering (GOGGINS) lyrics

Because I'm going to say the exact
Opposite of what the world
Today's world is saying
So,  we read a bunch of books nowadays
As humans we - we want to find out how to be
Someone else
What we don't do is we don't go inside
So literally turn yourself inside out
Like we're writing a book every
Day of our life's
But we never read that book

You have to look inside of
Yourself to see what
You really want? What are
You passionate about?
We use these words and little phrases
Of "only the strong survive"
And all this other crap
They are all just fucking words i get
So tired of hearing people just talking


Like right now
Someone may think "Goggins just talking"
Laughs You don’t know me
So, when I speak, I speak from passion
I speak from experience

I speak from suffering
I speak from suffering
The only way you're ever going to get
To the other side of this journey
Is you have got to suffer to grow
To grow you must suffer
I speak from suffering

Some people will get it and some people won’t

But they have to see what their
Journey is to start their journey

Several people live to be a hundred years old
And they have great lives
And they have great kids and
Those kids go to college
And all that sort of stuff
But somewhere in their lives
There was a point
Where they had a decision to make
They can go left or right on this path

They can go left or right on this path

Left was the easy route
Right was the hard route
A lot of people take the easy route
And they had a good life that way
But the better life was going
To the right side
And you may have 20 years of pain
And suffering to get past it
But a lot of us die
Never truly starting our journey
And you got to start your journey
It may suck, but it will
Come out the other side, we're coasting

I speak from suffering
I speak from suffering
The only way you're ever going to get
To the other side of this journey
Is you have got to suffer to grow
To grow you must suffer
I speak from suffering
Everyday we’re seeing who we are as people
When I was growing up
I lied for people to accept me
Because I didn’t accept myself
So I would make up stories
So you would accept me into your world
Everything I did was for someone
Else to like me
It wasn't until I started reading
My own book about
How pathetic I was as a human being
I could blame my dad, I could blame kids at
School, I could blame having
Health issues ADD
With my mom not being around
Great mom but she was doing here thing
I could blame a lot of people
And that's the book I was reading and
I put it off on everybody else
It wasn’t until I said
"You know what for me to fix this I got to
Read what the fuck is
Wrong with David Goggins"
And not blame anybody read my book
It’s okay I’m afraid of my shadow
How can I overcome that?
Go in the military, get your ass kicked
Do things that you hate to do Be
Uncomfortable every fucking day of your life
Roger that

I’m not the smartest kid in the world
Okay, instead of somebody saying "Oh no
You're smart oh no no
Don’t say that to yourself"
I said to myself "I’m a dumb motherfucker"
Okay, Roger that how you get smarter?
Educate yourself
So, the things that we run from
We're running from the truth
We’re running from the truth, man
So, the only way I became successful
Was going towards the truth
As painful, as brutal, as it is
It changed me it allowed me to become
In my own right who I am today

I speak from suffering
I speak from suffering
The only way you're ever going to get
To the other side of this journey
Is you have got to suffer to grow
To grow you must suffer
I speak from sufferin
