Hard Knock Life

lyrics: Yeah, it's the hard knock life, can't you see? Living on the streets, trying to chase my dreams Gotta hustle, gotta grind, every day and night No silver spoon, just a fight for my rights Growing up in the struggle, no room for mistakes Every step I take, I feel the pressure on my plate But I ain't backing down, I'ma rise above Through the hardships and pain, I'ma show 'em love Navigating through the darkness, I'ma find my light No matter the obstacles, I'ma win this fight Bouncing back from failures, I'ma keep my stride No matter how hard it gets, I won't run and hide They say life's a game, well, I'm playing to win No time for excuses, no room for giving in I'ma break these chains, I'ma make my own way Turning struggles into success, that's where I stay No shortcuts or handouts, I'ma earn my keep Every step I take, I'm moving mountains deep I refuse to let circumstances define who I am I'ma rise above, show 'em what I can Yeah, it's the hard knock life, but I won't fall I'ma stand tall, break down every wall No matter the setbacks, I'll keep pushing through 'Cause I know deep inside, success is overdue So let 'em talk, let 'em hate, I'll prove 'em wrong I'll rise up like a phoenix, I'll sing my own song This hard knock life, it's just a stepping stone To greatness and success, I'll never be alone Yeah, it's the hard knock life, can't you see? I'm grindin' daily, chasing dreams, no sleep From the bottom to the top, I'm risin' up No handouts, just hustle, you know what's up
