Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Them hard times be the best times
Hold onto that pain, blessings all within
And I know to keep our head high
[Verse 2]
Them hard times be the best
Born cursed, tatted on my neck
Took me a minute just to realize I was blessed
Full of pain and stress, but I'm too busy trying to gain success
Fuck the fame, I won't ever change, don't want my name in the press
My therapist asked how I been feeling, between insane and depressed
I can't lie, I'm traumatized from putting angels to rest
Daddy blood, sickly child, I gotta deal with my health
I can't believe it was a time I thought 'bout killing myself
[Verse 3]
But I'm blessed, I guess
I know they wanna see a **** down, I ain't going
You think you lost deep down inside, you done won
What it's gon' take for you to realize you the one?
Don't forget you are loved, at your best
You just gotta wait on your time, it'll come
I'm paranoid my brother died with his gun
Just remember me when it's all said and done
[Verse 4]
They say you get wiser when you grow older
But I cannot wait until all this shit over
You know God give his toughest battles to his strongest souljas
A wise man once told me it's about survival, without you it ain't no dreams
How you forget about your **** though? Must be a I in your team
How they gon' judge the way I'm living though, when they don't even know me?
Say you one hundred, gotta show me that
How they gon' try to hold me back?
Say they with me, ain't even notice that
Why ain't nobody told me that?
Nowadays everybody rapping, I don't know what's facts
But I had to put in the grind, no time to relax
No, I ain't even in my prime, I keep reminding me that
Ten years from now, out of sight out of mind, where I'll probably be at
[Verse 5]
But I'm blessed, I guess
I know they wanna see a **** down, I ain't going
You think you lost deep down inside, you done won
What it's gon' take for you to realize you the one?
Don't forget you are loved, at your best
I know they wanna see a **** down, I ain't going
You think you lost deep down inside, you done won
What it's gon' take for you to realize you the one?
Don't forget you are loved, at your best
You just gotta wait on your time, it'll come
I'm paranoid my brother died with his gun
Just remember me when it's all said and done
