Текст песни Hard Times - E-Phoenix

It's like I'm, stuck in a mental state
My visions got me thinking late, cause
I ask myself some questions, and call it an introspection
Rapping ain't making ends meet
Don't got connections and that's how it works right
For you to make it, gotta know some people
I ain't the type, to be rapping bout rags and riches
When I know there is a girl somewhere, suffering from abuse of men
I ain't the type to be rapping, bout cars and millions
When I know there is a man doing time, for crimes he didn't do, its real
As I wrote this song nigga pain I feel Is real
When I think of poverty in slums Dawg it's real
Intuition of self affliction, of a wounded state
Cause we governed by leaders wanting gains, its real
What a difficult time, we find ourselves in
I ain't no saint in this conversation
I'm stating facts
Destitution of a corrupt nation
But it's hard times, and the pain I feel is real

All I need is love nigga
Pain I feel is real
Time is running out nigga
Pain I fell is real
I don't want no trouble nigga
Pain I feel is real, nigga
Pain I feel is real
All I need is love nigga
Pain I feel is real
Time is running out nigga
Pain I fell is real
I don't want no trouble nigga
Pain I feel is real, nigga
Pain I feel is real

It's hard times, but this should never be your motor
Cause the moment when you start to doubt yourself
You make excuses for your failures
But remember this
A great man? is not defined by the number of times he fell
He is defined by how gets up
Suffering but never weaver's
So You sending your CVs
But the man in black, behind the desk, looks for a sec and then he Tossed it out
You thinking you ain't Good enough, you thinking crime is your way out
It's real
Don't ever lose your faith my nigga
Cause it's real
Trust in your consistencency, you'll make it don't steal
To all the people trying to end their life because of challenges
I know the feeling, cause I relate
But one thing you forget is
You are loved, and cherished by your circle
Your life is not yours alone
You got a family back at home
So take a moment
And think about all your decisions
It's hard times, but the pain you feel is real

All I need is love nigga
Pain I feel is real
Time is running out nigga
Pain I fell is real
I don't want no trouble nigga
Pain I feel is real, nigga
Pain I feel is real
All I need is love nigga
Pain I feel is real
Time is running out nigga
Pain I fell is real
I don't want no trouble nigga
Pain I feel is real, nigga
Pain I feel is real
All I need is love
