Too Hard Lyrics by Mertens

2017

[Hook (Mertens)]
Life is way too hard
I can't endure
Let's do this from start
I say no more

[Verse 1 (Mertens)]
When I grow up I want to ball like Jordan and LeBron
They say this is my end but homie I've just begun
You should fight for the things that you're believing in
But sometimes you should accept that things are harder than you think
Soon you're old and you regret missed opportunities
But new chances will appear in new communities
So my advice to everyone is don't ever give up
As soon as you started something you should never stop
One thing you can be sure of is that nothing's ever sure
But when you'll reckon that, life may be easier than before
Majority of the people in your life will come and go
So be careful about what you want to tell and show

[Hook (Mertens)]
Life is way too hard
I can't endure
Let's do this from start
I say no more

[Verse 2 (J. Cole)]
It's beauty in the struggle, ugliness in the success
Hear my words or listen to my signal of distress
I grew up in the city and though some times we had less
Compared to some of my niggas down the block
Man, we were blessed
And life can't be no fairytale, no once upon a time
But I be God damned if a nigga don't be tryin'
So tell me mama please why you be drinking all the time?
Does all the pain he brought you still linger in your mind?
Cause pain still lingers on mine
On the road to riches listen this is what you'll find
The good news is nigga you came a long way
The bad news is nigga you went the wrong way

[Hook (Mertens)]
Life is way too hard
I can't endure
Let's do this from start
I say no more
