Hard Times Lyrics by Mattakript

2020

Verse 1:

My universe was frozen the very second my son was born
Remember the first moment I held him my heart succumbed to warmth
So precious, something words can’t hinge to describe
Though I just know, there isn’t a thing, more dearer than him in my life
But as perfect as it was the honest truth is it wasn’t
He wasn’t feeding, eating properly, refusing consumptions
Didn’t know exactly what it was but knew it be something
That was wrong as he started to vomit out a green substance
Doctors proceed to thеse tests, revеaling a defect
In his belly not working in proper full, effect
Intestines lack cooperation so he had an operation
That, cost more than Ten thousand dollars it has my pockets breaking
Now releasing faeces out a tube out his gut
If you see it there’s a chance that you might puke out your lunch
Yeah I was sick to my stomach to see him sick from his stomach
Though we promised him we won’t ever plummet (when all these)

Chorus:

Hard times, gonna make you wonder why you even try
Hard times, gonna take you down and laugh when you cry
These lives and I still don't know how I even survive
Hard times, Hard times
And I gotta get to rock bottom

Verse 2:

I’ve been stranded overseas in the Philippines like eleven months
Can’t stress enough that it’s been gettin’ rough and my damn head erupts
(Covid) it’s not being aground, that really burdens me
But for my son because he needs another surgery
Home in Australia where it all needs to happen
For now I try my best to earn the funds and try to get cash in
For financial stability up from down in the carpet
So I’ve been mix and mastering other music for other artist
When I drop this Rap communities might whine about my accent
Ignore the words I say, rhyming skill and talent
Yeah they’ll try and belittle me say I lack authenticity
Please direct them to the dog pound they can latch on that bitchery
Cause’ I feel this life we live has had me tested enough
And as difficult it gets I try my best not to judge
I’ve stacked up lyrical bullets and I’ve been tempted to bust
To leave em’ dead in the dust, but I’m refraining because

Chorus:

Hard times, gonna make you wonder why you even try
Hard times, gonna take you down and laugh when you cry
These lives and I still don't know how I even survive
Hard times, Hard times
And I gotta get to rock bottom
