Hard Knock Life (Ghetto Anthem)

歌詞

Take the bassline out, uh huh Jigga uh huh uh huh uh huh It's the Hard Knock Life for us It's the Hard Knock Life for us 'Stead of treated, we get tricked 'Stead of kisses, we get kicked It's the Hard Knock Life From standin' on the corners, boppin' To drivin' some of the hottest cars New York has ever seen To droppin' some of the hottest verses rap has ever heard From the dope spot, with the smoke glock, fleein' the murder scene, you know me well From nightmares of a lonely cell, my only hell But since when ya'll niggas know me to fail? Fuck naw Where all my niggas with the rubber grips, bust shots And if you with me, mama rub on ya tits, and what not I'm from the school of the hard knocks, we must not Let outsiders violate our blocks and my plot Let's stick up the world and split it 50-50, uh huh Let's take the dough and stay real jiggy, uh huh Let's sip the Cris and get pissy pissy Flow infinitely like the memory of my nigga Biggie, baby! You know its hell when I come through The life and times of Shawn Carter, nigga, Volume 2 - Ya'll niggas get ready It's the Hard Knock Life for us It's the Hard Knock Life for us 'Stead of treated, we get tricked 'Stead of kisses, we get kicked It's the Hard Knock Life I flow for those droed out All my niggas locked down in the 10 by 4 controllin' the house We live in hard knocks we don't take over we bomb blocks Burn 'em down and you can have 'em back daddy, I'd rather that I flow for chicks wishin' they ain't have to strip to pay tuition I see you vision mama I put my money on the long shots, all my ballers that's born to clock Now I'ma be on top whether I perform or not I went from lukewarm to hot, sleepin' on futons and cots, To king size, green machines, to green 5's I've seen pies let the thing between my eyes analyze life's ills Then I put it down tight real I'm tight grill with the phony rappers, you might feel we homeys I'm like still you don't know me, shit I'm tight real when my situation ain't improvin' I'm tryin' to murder everythin' movin', Feel Me It's the Hard Knock Life for us It's the Hard Knock Life for us 'Stead of treated, we get tricked 'Stead of kisses, we get kicked It's the Hard Knock Life for us It's the Hard Knock Life for us 'Stead of treated, we get tricked 'Stead of kisses, we get kicked It's the Hard Knock Life I don't know how to sleep, I gotta eat, stay on my toes Got a lot of beef so logically I prey on my foes Hustlin' still inside of me and as far as progress You be hard-pressed to find another rapper hot as me I gave you prophecy on my first joint, and ya all lamed out Didn't really appreciate it 'til the second one came out So I stretched the game out, X'ed your name out Put Jigga on top, and drop albums non-stop for ya nigga It's the Hard Knock Life for us It's the Hard Knock Life for us 'Stead of treated, we get tricked 'Stead of kisses, we get kicked It's the Hard Knock Life for us It's the Hard Knock Life for us 'Stead of treated, we get tricked 'Stead of kisses, we get kicked It's the Hard Knock Life It's the Hard Knock Life It's the Hard Knock Life
