$lick Tha Rula - Hard Times

Hard times don't last forever
Trying to get my head together
Feel like a diamond cause I done came out from all this pressure
Call me a sandwich cause my pockets be filled up with lettuce
Ian tryna go back broke no more can't stand them notice letters
I'm bout to shine bright I spent some time in the dark
Searching for the light that shit be seeming hard
Yall see me catching up yall had a head start
Could never fall for no snake shit its up with my guard
And my Glock aint got no safety cause I'm trying to stay safe
Every time I see the bros I got to tell them stay dangerous
Cause that might be last I'm seeing them this aint no game
If you trying to stay alive just keep one in the brain
If I get killed gone and slide
At the viewing don't cry
Load the 'ks load the nines
No balloons bullets fly
Ian goin like no hoe just know I let thang off
You see that nigga who did it gone and take his fuckin' face off
But Ian going nowhere
I'm here for a little minute
My foot on that gas pedal
From start to the fuckin finish
I took me a lot of losses
It's time I start really winning
I'm tryna stay focused now
Don't know what I'm missing
I feel like rod wave
I came a long way
Every time that I get on a beat just hope they feel my pain
I hope you feeling my stories all through my wordplay
Its been some hard times I'm good now I cant complain
I got a chip in my shoulder
Put the syrup in my soda
Them days getting slower
And my heart getting colder
I done let up a lot of times
I coulda kept goin
Now I got them keys
Shit my foot in the door
My head getting bigger now
This shit is on swole
They say I'm too confident nigga this what I'm posed to
Aye that slow progress is always better than none
Perfect timing what I stand on Ian never in no rush
I be twisting up weed just to put in my wood
Aint no stopping this grind cause I got insurance
When it's said and done I'm the nigga who did it
Feelin like the lil engine that could
Long as I stay on the right path I'm good
Wanna take something I worked for I'll pull it
I'm big slick nigga I wish you would
Well respected but I'm misunderstood
Anxiety killing me softly
I got problems shit getting too toxic
Them drugs been getting too costly
I be feeling like I'm out of my body
Prepared for the worst what it cost me
I know these niggas want to off me
Catch me slipping hardly
My stick with me always
I been feeling low that's why I get high
I like smoking dope so I could touch the sky
Hard times don't last I'm trying to get by
Hard times don't last
