Harder Than U Know

Heritage again yeah Life's hard as hell Hard I'm sitting all alone in this room Thinking bout everything People saying they understand But they don't have a clue hot dam Sometimes I feel like giving up But I know I can't do that no Reflecting on life daily Has got me on the low You tell me that u understand my pain but it's Harder than you know Working nine to five and still can't meet the bills is Harder than you know Taking care of my family Oh yea is Harder than you know And resisting the streets yea is Harder than you know Early in the morning on the J train I see my people hustling going to work yeah This is how we're living everyday Trying to make ends meet yeah Trying to turn a dime into a dollar If you know what I mean let me hear you holler I'm singing from a heart of pain I'm tired of struggling yeah You try to make me feel like you know my pain but it's Harder than you know You wanna know how I'm living just for one day Harder than you know You thought u knew something about my life it's Harder than you know Everyone round my way will say the same it's Harder than you know I see mothers on crack bringing crack babies into world where there's no hope for those in need yea It's like a whole other world out here and the folks from the suburbs wouldn't even know this life is real If the news didn't show it sometimes How we really living out here all the time So many young mothers raising children on their own Can some one tell me what's wrong Oh what's wrong with this picture Or am I the only one making this an issue But it really doesn't matter As long as I get to say what I wanna say I see it all the time Rolling thru my hood everyday and night yea Now this here is real life living That's why I'm filled with so much pain You got this look on your face like you know my pain but it's Harder than you know I tell you the same thing over again Harder than you know I feel this pain flowing thru my veins it's Harder than you know Oh take another look and you'll see what I say it's Harder than you know Man youu getting me mad pretending like you know it's Harder than you know This is the real deal here life is really Harder than you know No matter where you come from the struggles all the same it's Harder than you know Aye yo I know this life like I know my name it's Harder than u know
