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. Life is hard, gotta grind every day Money on my mind, gotta find a way Streets cold, gotta watch your back Enemies lurking, ready to attack Raised in the hood, where the struggle is real No time for games, gotta make a deal Hustle hard, gotta stack that cash Survival of the fittest, gotta make it last Lost some homies to the streets Life is a gamble, gotta take the risks No time for regrets, gotta move forward In this cold world, gotta stay focused Every day is a battle, gotta stay strong Never back down, gotta prove 'em wrong Life is hard, but I'll never fold I'll keep grinding till I reach my goal.
