RU - The Hardway Lyrics




Picture me rollin' once I put this shit in motion
Took a trip out by the ocean just to focus on my focus
Fed up at the moment but you wouldn't even notice
Had to cut my heart open just to show you these emotions
I wonder what it do to me
Sometimes I be talking like it's you and me
Sometimes I fall swear that shit hurt
But I gotta get up and go get what I deserve

Cuz I know my momma she had a King
Daddy he had a soldier
The pain was setting in
But it ain't taking over
Nah man I had to get that shit the hard way
Yeah man I had to learn that shit the hard way
Momma she had a king
Daddy he had a soldier
The pressure was setting in
But it ain't taking over
Nah man I had to get that shit the hard way
Yeah man I had to learn that shit the hard way

I represent them artists who had to sleep in their car
Cuz I know that shit get hard
With all that shit up in your back seat
Then your car got towed
Now you sleep on this and that street
But shit like that is what it take to make it if you ask me
I promise it gone humble you
Plus you never know what kind of money you might run in to
Boy that's just the honest truth
Change your perspective bout the pain you been thinking bout
Watch that shit get better you'll be sharing how you made it out
When you livin the good life, yeah look at you living the good life
Never forget where you came from and how you took the harder way
And know that life you worked so hard to get out of ain't far away
Listening to these rappers you gone throw your money all away
Shit like that won't put you in the hall of fame
You know what I mean, stay focused on your dream
Every single day I tell myself the same things

Cuz I know my momma she had a king
Daddy he had a soldier
The pain was setting in but it aint taken over
Nah man I had to get that shit the hard way
Yeah man I had to learn that shit the hard way
Momma she had a king
Daddy he had a soldier
The pressure was setting in
But it ain't taking over
Nah man I had to get that shit the hard way
Yeah man I had to learn that shit the hard way
My momma she had a king
Daddy he had a soldier
The pressure was setting in
But it ain't taking over
Nah man I had to get that shit the hard way
Yeah man I had to learn that shit the hard way
Momma she had a king
Daddy he had a soldier
The pressure was setting in
But it ain't taking over
Nah man I had to get that shit the hard way
Yeah man I had to learn that shit the hard way

Lot of ups lot of downs lot of turns
It's a lot of things on this road I done learned
Bridges I done burned
People that done crossed me
Bad energy had you only feeling exhausted
I used to be a hot head now I take caution
The ones that really got bread ain't the ones flossin
And the best team is when everybody bosses
Came from the bottom to the houses with the faucets
I remember my back was against the wall
I strapped and gave it my all
My head up I'm standing tall
I gave it up to god for problems I couldn't solve
And before I say amen, I say RIP to all my dogs
Dealt with all my flaws, paying my dues
When I put your mind to it's nothing I can do.
God my shit the hard way, this right here's the proof
I really feel like I can't lose

Cuz I know Momma she had a king
Daddy he had a soldier
The pain was setting in
But it ain't taking over
Nah, man I had to get that shit the hard way
Yeah, man I had to learn that shit the hard way
Momma she had a king
Daddy he had a soldier
The pressure was setting in
But it ain't taking over
Nah man I had to get that shit the hard way
Yeah man I had to learn that shit the hard way
