Lyrics to Hardknocks

I been goin up retarded and I ain't stressin baby

Money made me go the hard way and that's a lesson baby

Make these niggas hate me all day that's my profession baby

I been goin up and all day I count my blessings baby



I been goin up retarded and I ain't stressin baby

Money made me go the hard way and that's a lesson baby

Make these niggas hate me all day that's my profession baby

I been goin up and all day



Tryna take this shit way far away cause I been messed with lately

All I got is family all day and that's the message baby

Came from movin work in hallways and elevators baby

Made my hood look like its Broadway I gotta bless it baby

Tell me how I come from hard blocks and I still get it poppin

I went to the school of hard knocks and graduated proper

Some my niggas played with hard rocks cause they ain't give em options

My hood that we live in taught not to ever move and prosper

I seen niggas make it then give back and niggas still be hatin

Reason why I tell my niggas don't give up on digit chasin

Leave the hood and now we eatin good in front plenty faces

I ain't pussy I just want more pussy and more celebratin

I seen niggas hit for gun charges then come back and beat em

Don't know if they snitchin I won't question how these niggas eatin

All I know my niggas loyalty be deeper than these people

Show me God be workin all them problems if he got a reason

I'm poppin

Told you don dada's got no choice but hustle

Lil' mama got that good good

And on her back a bubble

I'm catches passes niggas couldn't

So I'll never fumble

I'm puttin niggas on they ass

Still got an injured knucke

All my niggas come from dirty cities and we all gon make it

Weed imported from the yard got me smokin like Jamaicans

When I'm talkin business I don't trust nobody they be snakin

We ain't talkin if its no more talkin bout no elevatin



I been goin up retarded and I ain't stressin baby

Money made me go the hard way and that's a lesson baby

Make these niggas hate me all day that's my profession baby

I been goin up and all day I count my blessings baby



I been goin up retarded and I ain't stressin baby

Money made me go the hard way and that's a lesson baby

Make these niggas hate me all day that's my profession baby

I been goin up and all day
