HARD TIMES (feat. Lexipaz)

(Statik Selektah)

I hate to see you with a frown on your face
Guess they been giving you a hard time (giving you a hard time)
I hate to see you with a frown on your face
Guess they been giving you a hard time (giving you a hard time)
I hate to see you with a frown on your face
Guess they been giving you a hard time (giving you a hard time)
I hate to see you with a frown on your face
Guess they been giving you a hard time (giving you a hard time, look)

I noticed by my choices
Feeling like I might be on the brink of psychosis
Hit my plug just to recharge, to get some high voltage
Smoke my problems all away, that's just what my approach is
I'm on the verge, I don't wanna work
Irritated if somebody say another word
Aggravated, everybody getting on my nerves
Being treated like a peasant when you know your worth

I know that we were once queens and kings
Fed up with this simulation that we're living in
I been going through some sh-
Might've - around, lost my mind doing hallucinogens
Time to get back in my groove, remember who I am
I was once a boy, then grew into a man
I'm sticking to the plan
Any time I start complaining, I remember all the times that we were doing bad

I hate to see you with a frown on your face
Guess they been giving you a hard time (giving you a hard time)
I hate to see you with a frown on your face
Guess they been giving you a hard time (giving you a hard time)
I hate to see you with a frown on your face
Guess they been giving you a hard time (giving you a hard time)
I hate to see you with a frown on your face
Guess they been giving you a hard time (giving you a hard time)

Do what I do, you do what you do
I couldn't work a five to five 'cause I refused to
You know I'm me, I know that you're you
If I seem tight, it's 'cause I put myself in your shoes
Must sympathize because we both got sh- we're going through
Swear I be trying not to black just like I blew a fuse
Think I'm upset with you, my energy on neutral
And somehow I still get left hanging like a loose tooth

Got so much anger, need someone to take it out on
You're still dealing with your loss, how can you not mourn?
Anytime you get upset and wanna pop off
Remember sitting in the backseat of that cop car
Hold your composure when you're losing your patience
Ain't been complaining, built up all this frustration
These offices are like the modern plantations
Ain't took a break, and you might need a vacation (fly)

I hate to see you with a frown on your face
Guess they been giving you a hard time (giving you a hard time)
I hate to see you with a frown on your face
Guess they been giving you a hard time (giving you a hard time)
I hate to see you with a frown on your face
Guess they been giving you a hard time (giving you a hard time)
I hate to see you with a frown on your face
Guess they been giving you a hard time (giving you a hard time)

I hate to see you with a frown on your face (frown on your face)
I hate to see you with a frown on your face (frown on your face)
