streets (julien streetman) - hard times lyrics

intro (kateel):
hard times
i ain’t new to hard times
i ain’t new to hard times
i ain’t new to…

verse 1 (kjahn):
locked in my bedroom tweakin’
focused on the craft i can’t spare no weekends
or spare no evenings, or spare no opinions
i need more dead white folks sitting in my denim
wonder why my n+ggas dead or sitting in the system
that’s why they gave us detention
to get us more conditioned
that’s why they gave us suspensions
to paint us as the villain
sixteen shots how you justify the k!lling
listening to nipsey while i’m focused on the millions
i don’t want the office sp+ce
i’m tryna own the building
mb engines with the two+tone ceiling
d+mn them bright lights so appealing
d+mn that ice so thrilling
only god willing the reality of life gets chillin’
with blood spilling
and funeral billing
this mutual healing
i wrote this verse ‘cause i knew how you feeling hard times
chorus (kateel):
i ain’t new to hard times
we just all trying
tryna’ say it’s alright
when it’s not right
i just never lost sight
even dark nights
i could find a small light and make it all shine
i ain’t new to hard times
we just all trying
tryna’ say it’s alright
when it’s not right
i just never lost sight
even dark nights
i could find a small light and make it all shine

verse 2 (kateel):

life ain’t picture perfect
i’m still working on my image
sometimes i drop the ball
that’s when i pick up like a scrimmage
i’m giving it my all until the end, i gotta finish
it hurts to slip and fall but i don’t grimace
i’m eating pain when i’m grinning
‘cause behind the smile i just wanna run my mouth and talk about the thoughts i’m having now
‘cause they running wild all about past sh+t
tragic, i turn it into passion
positive chain of reaction
this the law of attraction
back when i was younger i was something
like an underdog
short and small tryna be accepted
by the other dogs
got my ass beat by people
that i should have never fought
now i walk it off but often used to rather run or jog
now it’s time to buck up and suck up my fake tears
even if it f+cks up my face imma’ face fear
no more acting scary i won’t escape
imma’ stay here
pain is temporary
that’s something these years made clear
chorus (kateel):
i ain’t new to hard times
we just all trying
tryna’ say it’s alright
when it’s not right
i just never lost sight
even dark nights
i could find a small light and make it all shine
i ain’t new to hard times
we just all trying
tryna’ say it’s alright
when it’s not right
i just never lost sight
even dark nights
i could find a small light and make it all shine

verse 3 (streets):
(yeah, look)
‘cause more than often
kindness is taken for weakness
the more deposits
i know the more they hating me breathing
leave you leaking
leave me reason
equipped to deal with demons right, (yea)
‘cause everything is always sweet until it’s not
me and kjahn got a lot
we gonna have to let it drop
this sh+t too heavy
every drop feel like a cinder block
while on that note
free my n+ggas out that box
and i’m inspired by you pops
i appreciate our talks foreal!
because my last couple months
have been a test of my will
but i ain’t new to hard times
man i feel you kateel
and when you living like that
you got no time for your feels
no being timid n+gga
go for the k!ll
you know the drill when you were
overthinking
rarely linking
barely sleeping
know just what you doing
even when you can’t see it
still not defeated type n+gga
nor depleted my n+gga
can’t be nothing but a hiccup i get up chin up
‘cause i ain’t new to hard times
chorus (kateel):
cuz i ain’t new to hard times
we just all tryn
tryna say it’s alright
when it’s not right
i just never lost sight
even dark nights
i could find a small light and make it all shine
i ain’t new to hard times
we just all tryn
tryna say it’s alright
when it’s not right
i just never lost sight
even dark nights
i could find a small light and make it all shine
