Aceyalone - Hardship

Yeah! and you don’t stop


Nowonce again ace one is on the wax


And this one goes out to everybody


Who experienced in their lifetime


Or going to experience in their lifetime some type of hardship


Because everybody goes through hardships





See hardship belongs to me


I will never give it away or sell it for a fee


I regret to inform you I will never set it free


Everyday I’m reminded of how hard it could be


I take my pain just like a g


Got my struggle of life down to a t


It’s nobody’s fault but mine if I can’t see


So I open my eyes and start looking for the key


Hardship is mine to hold onto


All through to the yellow brick road it goes


My shoulders got the heaviest load but I pack light


And I compensate I got act right when I conversate


See some people relate but they don’t understand the words


Some people can climb mountains but can’t jump curbs


And vice verse. I know it’s such a nice verse


But hardship makes everything worse


And worse is a reminder to stay on the path


But hardship is mine to have


Because hardship keeps me in check


Mainly so I can check myself I give up full respect


Because he’s real like a hundred-dollar bill


Without hardship you wouldn’t appreciate your meals


Without hardship I wouldn’t appreciate my skills


And so I do and so I grew and so I knew


That hardship not only makes most of my days blue


But it teaches me how to struggle in the jungle


And never crumble and how to remain humble


Some people they live life inside a glass case


Some people they live life in the vastness of space


And others will live long at a snail’s pace


I live with hardship slapping me in the face





Because hardship belongs to me


I will never give it away or sell it for a fee


I regret to inform you I will never set it free


Everyday I’m reminded of how hard it could be





How hard it could be...


How hard it could be...


Everyday I’m reminded of how hard it could be.
