life is hard

Life is hard, Hope I make it, It’s a risk, But I’ll take it, Feeling like I’m living Stuck in the basement, I’m just trying To get a higher placement, Life is hard, But I’ll make it, I can’t wait a long time I’m anxious, I’ve just gotta get off The pavement, So they hear me across The nation, Life is hard. (Verse 1) Life (Verse 1) Life is hard, I'm grindin' every day On these cold streets, tryna find a better way No time for sleep, I'm hustlin' for my pay Gotta make it out, no matter what they say Survival of the fittest, that's the motto I live by Grew up in the struggle, where only the strong survive Dodgin' bullets, duckin' sirens, it's a constant ride But I stay focused, 'cause I'm destined to thrive Raised in the trenches, where it's kill or be killed Got my mind on the money, gotta stack up them bills No time for the drama, cuttin' off all the frills Stayin' true to myself, that's how I keep it real I've seen friends fall victim to the streets' wrath So I move cautious, never showin' my true path Gotta stay alert, 'cause the snakes are in my path But I'll never fold, I'm built to last (Verse 2) Life is hard, but I'm built for the struggle I've been through it all, seen the worst in the rubble No silver spoon, I had to hustle and juggle Now I'm on the rise, watch me burst through the bubble Never had a handout, I earned it on my own From the bottom to the top, now I'm sittin' on a throne No time for distractions, I stay in my zone Focused on the prize, I'ma make it known Countin' up bands, that's my daily routine Chasin' dreams, I'ma turn 'em into a scene The pain I endured, it made me so mean But I'm takin' that energy and turnin' it to green Life is hard, but I'ma rise above the pain I'ma be a legend, leave a mark in this game No matter the obstacles, I'll never be the same I'm 21 Savage, and I'ma forever claim my name
