[Spoken Word Intro] This one goes out to Rusty Holler. [Verse] I know the hurt that you hurtin', Been through what chu goin' through. E'erything is work 'n' nothin's workin'. Whole world comin' down on you. [Bridge] I can't say it get's better. But I can say that chu can. [Chorus] Be stoic my friend. This world's full of troubles you get caught in. You kin slay dragons or windmills. If life ain't uphill, then it's downhill. The paths 'tween are chock full. Of Broken wagon wheels. Of people who kept goin'. Stead of settlin' where they broke down. Be stoic my friend. [Verse] You got haters orbitin'. S'cuz you got gravity. So don't be fo gettin' You a pillar, they depravity. So keep yer chin up, boy. 'N' square dem shoulders. Puff yo chest out (uh) Don't budge. You a boulder. [Bridge] I can't say it get's better. At least not right away. And not by a lot. But I can say that chu can. [Chorus] So you gotta stay stoic my friend. World's full of troubles. Go conquer 'em. You kin slay dragons or windmills. If life ain't uphill, then it's downhill. The paths Full of rocks and pits. But you'll keep goin fer yo kids. You can't wind back the clock. But you kin mend yo' wheels. And, you? You can be stoic my friend.
