lyrics

Verse1:
I wake up every day
same shit different day
Gotta think about the hustle
gotta find ways to get paid
cuz a minimum wage
Ain’t enough to pave the way
That’s why I cannot let up
Nah not a single day
Sheesh Cuz the way
This system was made
Its like the people of color
Aint ever having it our way
We just slaves to the privileged
Slaves to this system
They hating we the victims
On the realist fuck this system
Its crazy how we living
some are born to make a killing
some are killing just to make living
its crazy how this system
doesnt care about our living
Do you hear what I be feeling
Cuz this is something that we dealing with
The hard life of a kid
I see my brothers on the block really tryna make there way
Surrounded by the cops tryna seize there day
Homeless on the block looking for that spare change
Its a hard knock life cuz I’m also seeking change


Verse 2:
It ain’t easy
Tryna make a living
Wish it was easy
To Live this life
being All suffice
everything so nice
ain’t tripping bout it everything alright
And at night got a warm bed to sleep in
Stomach ain’t growling cuz everyday we eating
Fam all good that’s the bestest feeling
Steady cooling cuz stress has no meaning
Shit I wished that life would really be this easy
Instead we gotta struggle now
Instead we gotta hustle now
The bread ain’t coming so we really gotta chase it wow
Its like a cycle going round and round
But Black and brown
is always down
Now Tell me why the fuck its always like that wow
I’m Downing all my sorrows thru a bottle
Tryna get on with my day full throttle
I’m drowning all my sorrow thru a bottle
Hard knock life man it’s really awful
