When Times Get Hard

Yeah I said When times get hard You gotta grind harder You reach success they in your pocket Like the Godfather But you can't please 'em all my homie Why bother I'm droppin' knowledge now Cause I done got a lot smarter Evolution yeah I let the money change me My resolution in the bigger picture's HD I want the most success I can get Out of fame's reach Ironic everything I made is what made me Started from the bottom now we here But this ain't just a catchy song Bro it's really what I'm on I gave up college education in a year In class smellin' like the strong Tellin' teachers it's cologne I was scared to make a change And face my fears For me it took a lil' long But now I'm really on my grown It took a minute for me To switch up them gears Cause when you really on your own You feel like you can't do no wrong A new perspective Its hard to get in check with When you livin' reckless New direction it's harder To detect it when livin' hectic When you too plain (Two plane) Everything crumbles like 9-11 The fast lane make each hour Feel like 60 seconds Time fast forwards I'm swervin' on 'em now Cause I was on a crash course I was down bad Bank shot like a back board I learned positivity Get's you anything you ask for Livin' like a black God Moments seem to drag on Leave 'em all on hold like FEMA No passport I'm so fly You have no idea (ID ya) My wife the bomb it ain't a secret She nothing like Korea And I'ma give her catalog Cause I'm so IKEA That's off topic But that's cause my mind In a new dimension She's the apple of my eye And the object of my affection If she's Eve then I'm Adam (@ em) I gotta give her a mention Every song cause she finally Guided me out that prison Through the hard times She put in work around the clock And never part time And they say greed is a sin Yet she all mine My guiding light The perfect balance to my dark side And through the hard times We had to balance our connection And stay online No URL Smack in the middle Never called time Cause we can't get caught In the WEB with all of y'all lies I had to distance myself From y'all like apartheid Yeah I said When times get hard You gotta grind harder You reach success They in your pocket Like the Godfather But you can't please 'em all my homie Why bother I'm droppin' knowledge now Cause I done got a lot smarter Evolution yeah I let the money change me My resolution in the bigger picture's HD I want the most success I can get Out of fames reach Ironic everything I made is what made me Ayo I wrote this for the younger me And I apologize For all the broken dreams I sold you all kind of lies A couple of memories you dramatically Wish you dramatized Like moms not lookin at you Cause you been cursed With your father's eyes I remember comin' up as a rookie Coach put you in the game And all your morals start to change He said there ain't no 'I' in team And that shook me But there's 12 players on this team And only one gon' win this game That's when I started to realize That it could be More to life than stayin' in a lane And see that moral is the same When I said I'd never kill Unless you push me, right? And then I went and joined a gang See certain positions leave you Conditioned to make decisions And it's hard to break the system When living in repetition You faced with that Denny's menu And stuck with a split decision No minutes for intermission Gettin' Do' (dough) like Homer Simpson We livin' In a era Where the righteous get stuck Where the government Cause commotion then be hypin' it up To distract us from all the griminess They be hidin' from us America's Pie We all want our slice from the crust You got homies that joined the war To fight for Obama And AWOL two terms later They ain't fightin for Trump One day you gon' be morally aware Of what's more of the problem And realize you shoulda been Livin' right from the jump Yeah I said When times get hard You gotta grind harder You reach success They in your pocket Like the Godfather But you can't please em' all my homie Why bother I'm droppin knowledge now Cause I done got a lot smarter Evolution yeah I let the money change me My resolution In the bigger picture's HD I want the most success I can get Out of fames reach Ironic everything I made is what made me (Ranks)
