Voluum Anomali P - Hard Life lyrics



Verse 1

All my life, I’ve never been so high
I couldn’t afford a Lobster, Shrimp or a Pudding Pie
Upper class never knew this guy
I was too broke, poor and I wasn’t fly
I wasn’t they kin o’ guy
I was so damn poor, living in a house without a back door
To sleep at nights, we had to take turns
Ten (10:00) to twelve (12:00) it was my turn
Twelve (12:00) to two (2:00) it was sis turn
Two (2:00) to four (4:00) it was mom’s turn
Street educated, that’s how I learn
Hustle and sell; that’s how I earn
A living by getting and giving
Shop lifting streets got me gasp, got to watch my ass
Sometimes when the hunger hurts
I’m in the store I gotta snatch food under my shirt
When the store clerk ain’t looking
Cause I know tonight my Ma wont be cooking
Cause we ain’t got nothing
I came from nothing; I’m trying to be something
So let me be……

Chorus:

Too many cries, too many tears
So many burdens, Moms gotta bare
It’s time we step up the stairs
Look to the skies and aim to reach there
Rep* 2

Verse 2

I gotta give God thanks for where I’m
But I can’t forget where I’m coming from
I’m from the gutter man
A poor motherfucker, only three sides my bread was butter
The rest was bread
There was times I thought I would be dead
But I held up my head
And strive to aim high
My dad taught me the sky’s the limit
So I knew I had to pay a visit
One of these days before I visit my grave
Locked up in a cage, in the pen
Expressing my rage
I’m black so life is extra hard
I’m black so I gotta push extra hard
I gotta play my cards right
To get through this crazy, crazy life
Damn right, it’s the hard life…..

Chorus:
Too many cries, too many tears
So many burdens, Moms gotta bare
It’s time we step up the stairs
Look to the skies and aim to reach there

Rep* 2

Verse 3

I was born to suffer, grew to suffer
This world is as sick as any motherfucker
You try to tell them that your life is tough
They tell you tough luck, hell who gives a fuck
I’m a grown man, I trying to stand on my two feet
I rock the beat, I roam the streets
I gotta struggle to make ends meet
To put food on the table for my family to eat
I know a lot o’ people can relate to what I’m saying
Cause a lot o’ you peeps have been through the same
I gotta be honest; I’m here to make money
Cause before I didn’t have any
I couldn’t even afford to shop J C Penny
Thanks to the fans I can feed my family
I would like to show a lot of respect
To the ghetto, suburbs, hoods and projects…..

Chorus:

Too many cries, too many tears
So many burdens, Moms gotta bare
It’s time we step up the stairs
Look to the skies and aim to reach there

Rep* 2
