Hard knocks ft. TKYØ Lyrics

Said that I would live this life

Said that I would rock them jeans

Said I'm gon rock them tees

They all up in ur face with smiles

But they pull up on At with hate

They trying to disrespect

Came up from the city with hard knocks

Did it with no fuvking help

I had to grab my plate

Sometimes I'm feeling nothing but sorrow

Couldn't have a heart so I borrowed

Cus it's easy to fumble

Trying to keep the Faitth never grumble

Money on my mind like a young bull

Started out in igundu

Now I'm on a mission to conquer

Sipping on that henny with lobster

The definition of prosper

Swear it's been hard for a nigga

I've been dealing with my demons for as long as I remember

I've been trying to catch a break I've been working since December

Live my life right on the edge cus I'm just trying to find my center

It's hard for a nigga

Gravity keeps holding me back in trying to levitate

Reaching for the squeeze of the forty but still I hesitate

Niggars steady talk to my back talk to my fucking face

Told my family I'll be a winner and that I'll never break

I put my hustle on my back you know I'm with it every where I go

Seven on my back so it's perfection when I'm in my zone

Killer on the mic I leave them smitten when I spit that flow.I bet you know

Heading for the top it's like a one way road

Every obstacle I ever faced I left them decicrated

Made it on my own with self service like I masturbated

I'm agiftated

let me breath I'm feeling emancipated

caught from a different cloth materials couldn't be fabricated

Told my mums that I can never stop until I

Make her proud

I know it wasn't easy having one I know you wanted more

Still you loved me with your whole heart like I was ten or more

Smothered me alil bit too much

I guess I grew up spoiled

I guess I never learned to do my chores I know that made you mad

Made too many errors in my life I know I made you sad

It's hard to be a man and I lost direction back when daddy died

Picking up the pieces while I bleed I'm trying to make you smile

The life Im trying to live comes with a price

I had to sacrifice

I appreciate the scars cause they tell the story of my life

I've been in the field since ages I'm fighting for my life

I remember daddy used to call me soldier

I guess he was right
