amor fati Lyrics

Yeah

Cleanthes said that

Fate guides the man who is willing and drags the unwilling

What a relative sentiment

Life will have its tolls but

It's a testing of temperament

Either used for our betterment or

It can arrest our development

Yeah

I been through the

Sun and the shade

Joy and the pain

One of these days

You'll see it again and love it the same

Like huh / Damn

Guess I needed rain for the growth through growing pains

We can't wish away our problems

That don't mean they're here to stay

That's that ball n chain clinking

Weighing down our way of thinking

Gotta know that the obstacle's

The way to make improbable

Become a life that's optimal

Overcome the border jump

A triumph is a battle won

Yeah

Meaning you can't hold the trophy

Being comfortable n cozy

Gotta earn it

Find a purpose

Serve it through disturbances

Proven worthy

True n sturdy

Every new occurrence

Yeah

Cannot be a hermit when the enemy emerges

Gotta face it / Man your station

That's your only obligation

To make my statements layman's

I would take fate as an agent

That can pave the way for greatness

And facilitate the payments

Of all the time invested

But

Huh

Hey

What can I say

A lover of fate

Amor fati

God has got me

Firm in hand

Firm I stand

Ain't no slave to circumstance

Nah nah nah

I - Never been a victim

There's a cost to contradiction

Wishing it was different

Only weakens our position

Can't control the system, but we can control ourself

And the way we're dealing with them

We build our own perspective, so

Is it beneficial to construct ourselves a prison

Nah

It's more human finding humor

In the things that happen to us

Cuz we'd rather laugh at life than lament into our ruin

I could laugh at tragedies

Life goes on mentality

It's all about the balancing

I follow this analogy

And focus on empowering

Me, myself and I

My friends and all my family

Until the day they bury me

Only real will carry me

We're all here temporarily

I use this as my therapy

Like

Keep your presence in the present

Ain't no failures, only lessons

Every step is a progression

Success ain't always flexing

Shh, you can take a tumble

And be humbled any second

Take stumbles as a blessin'

Your worth's the time invested

Overcoming when you're bested

Make the most of your connections

And be slow to show aggression

Make decisions level headed

Cuz emotions over zealous

Can reduce your future treasures

And remind us of the message

Like

Hey

What can I say

A lover of fate

Amor fati

God has got me

Firm in hand

Firm I stand

Ain't no slave to circumstance

Nah nah nah

I - Never been a victim

There's a cost to contradiction

Wishing it was different

Only weakens our position

Can't control the system, but we can control ourself

And the way we're dealing with them

We build our own perspective, so

Is it beneficial to construct ourselves a prison

Nah
