Hard Times

(Piano intro) Yeah Yeah Uh huh Watch this (Verse 1) I worked hard for this moment When I reach the door they close it I win a trophy they wanna hold it All their jealousy is showing They all wanna be where I'm going I'm down here ten toing Lost my dogs, still coping (Chorus) I came from the hard times Out the mud, keeping every dime Now they got me in the New York Times Their ain't many like my kind (Verse 2) Listen to what they say But watch what I do You ain't gotta see me as cool Chasing me down, you look like a fool You don't ride like me Not dirty, but rich and clean We had enough of no money I didn't get this far with ease (Chorus) I came from the hard times Out the mud, keeping every dime Now they got me in the New York Times Their ain't many like my kind (Verse 3) Dying breed Like Polo G You ain't gotta be in my team But don't be an enemy (Chorus) I came from the hard times Out the mud, keeping every dime I'll take your life and keep mine If you step in the way of my focused eyes (Verse 4) They talk down on my name They test this like a game I'm on top of the ranks And now they all know my name (Verse 5) Taking my time on this track Cause I got all year to slide back And get back in the lead And have them think "How'd he do it like that" (Chorus) I came from the hard times Now I'm having a good time Still ain't close to my prime But I got plenty of time to shine Nah Ohh Oooh (Chorus) I came from the hard times Out the mud, keeping every dime Now they got me in the New York Times Their ain't many like my kind (Piano outro)
