The Hard Way

Yeah, yeah
Livin' life

Livin' life the harder way
Hope you make it through the day
I know you tryin' to figure out what's a better path to take
What's a better route to take
Should you go or should you stay
I know this life can have you making turns you never shoulda' take
Livin' life the hard away
Hope you make it through the day
I know you tryin' to figure out what's a better path to take
What's a better route to take
Should you go or should you stay
I know this life can have you making turns you never shoulda' take
(Hard way)

Why'd you sell you shoulda' prayed
Why'd you go you shoulda' stayed
It don't matter what they told you, man, you chose the hard away
You went left instead of right
Chose your pride instead of Christ
Now your life is on the line
Can't believe you 'bout to die
You ain't want a normal life
You ain't want a nine-to-five
Now you 'bout to pay the price
Call the doctor, call a nurse
Do you feel it, does it hurt
It's too late to go to church
They 'bout to put you in a hearse
And to think this could've been avoided if you went the other way
I'm not judging, I'm just sayin'
Man your life can end today
I ain't holy, I ain't perfect
I just know I can relate
You ain't the only one that thought about a mansion on the lake
I've thought about dro
Thought about blow
Thought about stealin' and dealin' fa sho
Came from the mud, so you already know
Gotta get that bread, gotta get that dough
Wanna live fast, then you gonna die slow
Gotta find a better way to walk this road
Whatever it takes, I don't know
But you gotta live long and you gotta get home, bro

Livin' life the harder way
Hope you make it through the day
I know you tryin' to figure out what's a better path to take
What's a better route to take
Should you go or should you stay
I know this life can have you making turns you never shoulda' take
Livin' life the hard away
Hope you make it through the day
I know you tryin' to figure out what's a better path to take
What's a better route to take
Should you go or should you stay
I know this life can have you making turns you never shoulda' take
(Hard way)

Cause I live my life the harder way
All the things I went thru took my heart away
I don't move how you move, I'mma star
I been grindin' I been going hard
I had to change my route to make it out
They say Playa going far
I had to close my mouth and peep it out
You weren't there from the start
Hold up
Trials and tribulations
I been running out of patience
Wes told me play it safely
Let's get technical, you know I'm pressure
Pray to the Lord, I don't worship the devil
Know I'm alone, I ain't never been selfish
I keep a Bible wit' me on the shelf
I'm staying humble, I gotta get better

Aye staying humble, I'm takin' the lead
This road full of bumps stayin' strong through the siege
Prayin' that God hear my screams and my pleads
Know that He wit' me when I hear the breeze
I'm from the gutta, we had to chop trees
Ova East baby, stay with magazines
Only healin' we know, kill our lungs and our spleen
Prayin' we live to the day we get clean
400 years of the harder way
We came together to save the day
Mama say, better pray for you lay
Bills due, she had to move Billy Ray
Lights off, from December to May
Guess what? Off the porch to the trap
Guess what? From the trap to the stage
So glad, it was all just a phase

Livin' life the harder way
Hope you make it through the day
I know you tryin' to figure out what's a better path to take
What's a better route to take
Should you go or should you stay
I know this life can have you making turns you never shoulda' take
Livin' life the hard away
Hope you make it through the day
I know you tryin' to figure out what's a better path to take
What's a better route to take
Should you go or should you stay
I know this life can have you making turns you never shoulda' take
(Hard way)
