Introducing the hard life
As if you all ain’t know about it (in the hard life)
Just another one of them ghetto things (in the hard life)
The hard life
Living and the dying, think about it

[Chorus]
When I think about the days gone by
All the times
You wish that you could fly away
Into the clear blue skies
Just to lead a hard life
And when I think about the times we’ve had
I remember good as well as the bad
I can hear sounds of laughter
But they’re laced with cries
When you lead a hard life

In the hard life

Dear mister president
I was watching the news the other day
You talked about a whole lot of issues
But something about the neighborhood you never did
So I took it for myself to change the channel
Figured out I was better of watching videos
Maybe try to get a little food for my soul
Late at night when they play the old tunes, you know

[Bridge]
I can’t get no satisfaction another life lost off quick reaction
Only time I think about calm and relaxing is when I write a new song, when I think about it

[Chorus]
When I think about the days gone by
All the times
You wish that you could fly away
Into the clear blue skies
Just to lead a hard life
And when I think about the times we’ve had
I remember good as well as the bad
I can hear sounds of laughter
But they’re laced with cries
When you lead a hard life

In the hard life

Just a little something for my neighborhood
Holla if you hear me, put you hands up
Tough time in summertime feeling good
Reminisce about my partners that done past away
Just like little Ronnie, me and him and Melinda
Just wanna be somebody
But to go now
Asked me how I feel about it
Well I thank the lord who blessed him
So I sang about it

[Bridge]
I can’t get no satisfaction another life lost off quick reaction
Only time I think about calm and relaxing is when I write a new song, when I think about it

[Chorus]
When I think about the days gone by
All the times
You wish that you could fly away
Into the clear blue skies
Just to lead a hard life
And when I think about the times we’ve had
I remember good as well as the bad
I can hear sounds of laughter
But they’re laced with cries
When you lead a hard life
When you lead a hard life

[Rap by E-40]

[Chorus]
When I think about the days gone by
All the times
You wish that you could fly away
Into the clear blue skies
Just to lead a hard life (just to lead a hard life)
And when I think about the times we’ve had
I remember good as well as the bad
I can hear sounds of laughter (sounds of laughter)
But they’re laced with cries
When you lead a hard life

[Chorus to fade]

[Baby]
For sure, lil’ one
I know what you’re goin’ through to shine
Niggas pullin’ off all type of shit
But, look: if you don’t know what you’re doin’,
you’d better catch the sideline
Catch the sideline

Nigga, the block look the same – it’s just crack and cocaine
Niggas losin’ but we still maintainin’
Livin’ life like a penitentiary with a ki in my hand
Knockin’ project bricks
Flippin’ chickens, and movin’ out quick
Hard-hustlin’ ‘cause we love slingin’ this white shit
S.S., Monte Carlo’s, hard-tops – we love that shit
‘Bout two-hundred thugs with this clique
We multiply everyday for the bullshit
For the hood shit
Burned down buildin’s ain’t no good, slick
Niggas pullin’ auctions on they own cars to get money quick
Then we dippin’ and dabbin’
Goin’ back to the labbin’
Lil’ niggas payin’ me for cookin’ they slabbin’
Cook a brick and make it out a brick-and-halfin’
Chargin’ them young g’s ten G’s for cookin’ they slabs
Say, lil’ wodie, I gots to have it

[Hook – 4x (Juvenile)]
It’s a hard life we livin’ – they ‘bout they drama
We earn stripes from killin’ – attack like piranhas

[Lil’ Wayne]
Look
Look
On the streets it ain’t sweet
They be (?)
It’s not a game, homeboy – this ain’t the NFL
Him just (?) from rippin’ with the mid-deck twelve
Hit the block in twin-SL’s, and spit at gals
You get that, pal?
Once it’s war, nigga, skip town
‘Cause if I don’t do it, be swimmin’ with fish, clown
Now, crack a whole chick down, sell it in quarters
If the drama happen to hit town, I’m ‘nappin’ your daughter
If the broad try to flip out, I’m cuttin’ her water
If your boys try to help out, I’m killin’ they fathers
When and wherever
What and however – you bring it good
I’ll have your mom singin’ "Hmmm hmm hmmm"
Cause nowadays lot of niggas got coward ways
So I ride with K’s to knock off the side of heads
But I’m tryin’ to stay man, I’m tryin’ to stay focused
What I’m tryin’ to say we gon’ bust it wide open!

[Hook – 4x (Juvenile)]

[Mannie Fresh]
What
What
Pimps, playas, riders, rollers, hustlers
Gangstas, thugs, criminal motherfuckers
Hit it, quit it, fuck it, leave it, flee
No evidence at your residence – that’s me
Black, ugly, mean, sheisty bastard
Preachers and teachers sayin’, "I’m surprised you lasted."
Guns, drugs, bitches hot sex
Weed, crack, heroin – what’s next?
Feds, cops, killers politicians
Hookers, hoes, (?) all on missions
Crooks, mayors, presidents, and leaders
N-double-A-CP, rednecks, and meat beaters
Mommas, baby-mommas, aunties and cousins
Scatter sites, knocked-out lights, projects by the dump
And cars, broads, murders ghetto life
I went through all that shit
for platinum ringers and a little bit of ice

[Hook – 4x (Juvenile)]

[Juvenile]
I’ve been blessed
I thank the Lord everyday
for gettin’ me from ‘round these devils in these dark hallways
How the fuck you gonna help me when I don’t care?
Niggas see me front it all – they just look and stare
And talk about how it should be and how it could be
Bentley in my basement – ain’t nobody understood me
Take care of your people like you take care of your kids
‘Cause money ain’t shit when you don’t know how to live
And niggas gon’ pretend to be your friend when they ain’t
You expect ‘em to be there until the end, but they can’t
Now, how many of you can say you’re a real nigga?
Play the Prowler, but scared to go in the field with ya
You gon’ know your nigga – he gon’ be there, still with ya
Whether if it’s talkin’ or slingin’ the steal with ya
Don’t answer nobody questions
Gotta turn to the Lord with a confession

[Hook – 4x (Juvenile)]
It’s a hard life we livin’ – ‘cause they ‘bout they drama
We earn stripes from killin’ – attack like piranhas

I led a hard life
Dust in the wind
I led a hard life
I led a hard life

Close my eyes
Only for a moment
And the moment’s gone
All we do
Crumbles to the ground
And we refuse to see

Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind

I led a hard life (repeat)

Same old sound
Just a drop of water
In an endless sea
In all you do
And not another minute
Oh no, no more goodbye, bye, bye

Chorus
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind
Dust in the wind
All we are is dust in the wind

I led a hard life (repeat)
……
…wonder
I don’t know
What about?
And we stick it assunder
Out of coming up in this world
And it’s bringing me under
And as i can make it this far
I know just who we are
We must be dust

Chorus & fade with the following:
I led a hard life (repeat)
