歌詞
[Intro]
They called this hard way (Hard way)
They called this hard way (Hard way)
Livin' on the edge, no easy play
They called this hard way (Hard way)
[Verse 1
We hustle every night, yeah, we play it raw
Dodgin' all the trouble, tryin' to dodge the law
Money ain't for flash, it's for stayin' alive
Survivin' in the jungle where the weak won't thrive
They lookin' down on us, think they know it all
But they ain't seen the struggle, they ain't seen the fall
We live in shadows, movin' through the mist
Our loyalty's a bond, ain't no ties to twist
[Chorus]
They called this hard way (Hard way)
Fightin' every day, no time to pray
They called this hard way (Hard way)
Lookin' at the world in shades of gray
They called this hard way (Hard way)
Nothin' in this life comes cheap or free
They called this hard way (Hard way)
Judgin' from their towers, they don't see
[Verse 2]
They think they righteous, think they pure as snow
But behind closed doors, they the ones to show
Hypocrites in suits, actin' like they clean
While we out here grindin', keepin' it unseen
Respect ain't given, man, it's earned with blood
In this concrete jungle, we don't show no love
Every step we take, gotta watch our back
In this life of crime, ain't no simple track
[Rap]
Born in the gutter, raised by the streets
No silver spoons, just a world full of cheats
We keep it real, ain't no fakin' our fame
While they sit on thrones, playin' power games
We the outcasts, the ones they ignore
But in the dead of night, we the ones they implore
For protection, for favors, for the dirt unseen
In this world of lies, we the only ones clean
[Chorus]
They called this hard way (Hard way)
Fightin' every day, no time to pray
They called this hard way (Hard way)
Lookin' at the world in shades of gray
They called this hard way (Hard way)
Nothin' in this life comes cheap or free
They called this hard way (Hard way)
Judgin' from their towers, they don't see
[Outro]
They called this hard way (Hard way)
Livin' on the edge, no easy play
They called this hard way (Hard way)
But we keep on fightin', day by day
