Hard Way Lyrics by Vonte Brown

2023

HARD WAY
Sample (You come up the hard way
Because I never had a helping hand
Now this is what I had to do)
Yeah, look
Every day is struggle for a black man
You can’t understand if the police ain’t on you back, man
Came from the mud, word to Pakman
No matter what life serve, we turning the racks, man
Do you hear me?
It ain’t nothing to get it the hard way
Been bombarded by so many things, the hard days
That’s what made a nigga took, now flip it, it’s parlay
It don’t shake a nigga, look now, I’m straighter than yard tape
You don’t feel me if it wasn’t a hard life
Nights I was stuck in the dark, candles in light, the lighters couldn’t be far
The apart, bumbling and fumbling under dressеrs is hard
But not as bad as a nigga tryna pull your card
It’s a large gap between getting handеd everything
Then get by any means, we don’t see the same
Take a nigga from the hood
And a boy who got it good
Boy, they feel. A different pain
If you don’t feel me, that’s a shame
The hard way
The hard way
The hard way
I got it
From the mud (On My Own)
The hard way (No love)
The hard way
Thoughts of being lost in my abandoned adolescence
Thought of being free from the lessons
Yeah, no pain, no gain
No gain, no pain
To me it’s all the same
Thoughts of being lost in my abandoned adolescence
Thought of being free from the lessons
Yeah, no pain, no gain (Uh)
No gain, no pain
To me it’s all the same
They say, “No pain, no gain”
At least they kept it real
I guess we’ll see how it plays
Like a reel to reel
That’s how it feels when you’re learning life’s lessons
That’s where they keep you on your toes, second guessing
The way I see it, opportunity’s a blessing
You gotta treat it with your life, like the president
You gotta show up every day like it’s your residence
Then maybe you can shine some light like Thomas Edison
I used to hate the struggle, wish I had it easy
Until I noticed how it handicaps you when you’re needy
You don’t know how independence helps you move freely
If you ain’t get it on your own without a single freebie
Not being spiteful, that was rightfully said
Niggas breaking down and shaking like a rifle’s ahead
I should take down all my old shit, was too far ahead
I guess I made it for the Generation X, what’s next?
I’m on the bigger plays than Broadway
Had some hard days, but I still got it
The hard way
’m on the bigger plays than Broadway
Had some hard days, but I still got it
The hard way
The hard way
The hard way
The hard way
I got it
Thoughts of being lost in my abandoned adolescence
Thought of being free from the lessons
Yeah, no pain, no gain
No gain, no pain
To me it’s all the same
Thoughts of being lost in my abandoned adolescence
Thought of being free from the lessons
Yeah, no pain, no gain
No gain, no pain
To me it’s all the same
