Hard Times

I'm blue in green, sad in a state of envy Society got us competin' like we enemies So jealous we end up committin' felonies When all we really wanna find is a remedy Love yours - Cole said it best Hard to love yours when everything around you is a mess Broke - And I don't know when my meal comin next Life got me stressed all I wanna do is rest Yes Yes Lord - I could give it to you But the first done came and went so the rent overdue Lights still on but I leave them off to go with the mood I'm blue - naw I'm black cuz the room is too Help me out - I just need a little light Something to help me get through the night Smile on my face so you think I'm alright Can't leave now so I guess I'll pick the pen up and write Hard times make you feel down and out Them hard times make you feel down and out Hard times send you down a bad route Keep ya head high cuz the strong make it out Hard times make you feel down and out Them hard times make you feel down and out Hard times send you down a bad route Keep ya head high cuz the strong make it out Tank on E that's how my bank account be Blanket in my car to keep me warm while I sleep Tryin not to let these people see But you know they gon notice it eventually Cuz today is Monday And Friday's when I get my Monay And I ain't got no clothes on-may Aside from what I'm wearin' so You know them assholes gon' be starin' At my job they rob me constantly Do all this work they don't pay me properly I wanna leave but I need money to help me eat And as you can see I'm basically on the street In a few months time I'll be gone So I just gotta keep on keepin' on A change in scenery is what I need, stay strong I ain't gon' let this be my swan song Hard times make you feel down and out Them hard times make you feel down and out Hard times send you down a bad route Keep ya head high cuz the strong make it out Hard times make you feel down and out Them hard times make you feel down and out Hard times send you down a bad route Keep ya head high cuz the strong make it out
