Gems from O Lyrics by Dirty Ike

Moonshine EP

2021

Most of our battles are fought in the shadows; not a lot of people know about them
You think back over the course of your life ,I'm talking about your entire life
From the moment you were born into the moment you're listening to this right now
The majority of those battles have been fought in the shadows and nobody really knows about it
But those are the building blocks to your legacy
Not your success. Your Legacy
And I'm very careful not to use the word success because success in comparison to legacy is so small
Succеss can be formed through habits and practice
Lеgacy is formed through resilience and endurance
Legacy is the lessons that you teach your kids based on what you been through
Legacy determines whether or not your past has conquered you or you conquered your past. Right?
And so when you reflect on those moments, from the moment you were born to the moment you're listening to this right now
Everything that you've been through all the shit you had to endure, you'll find evidence of divine strength you'll find evidence of divine power
This not conjecture. This is fact. This is fact. It's evident. It's documented
You know what you been through
You know what you been through
And the key of it all is to not use what you been through - and not carry it as a burden but carry it as a badge
When you carry it as a badge you are honoring those experiences. You are honoring your journey. You're honoring your sacrifices
You see, when you carry it as a burden you're allowing them to hinder your progress
