It is Hard Out Here

Lyrics

[Chorus: Nipsey Hussle] It's so hard out here But I'm still breathing I said it's hard out here But my nigga I ain't leaving [Verse 1: Nipsey Hussle] Lookie I show niggas too much love And not enough discipline Now look at all this backwards shit a nigga in Homies want my head They'd rather see me dead Than paper'd up on BET that nigga getting bread What you thought, what you think, what that shit do? I heard Nipsey getting paper, is that shit true? Yeah, he used to hussle off slauson Type a nigga probably (feast up)(?) on a coffin Cos homies families was hurting But what's it worth when these niggas want your carcus Yeah I know they probably smile up in your face But I know you niggas phony cos there's sweat up in your shake Nigga jealousy, how easily niggas forget Used to walk thrugh the hood, nigga didn't have shit I just hussled off the corner, and I stacked a couple chips Then I hit the parking lot, with that brand new whip How you love that, ain't you supposed to smile for me? Why you hate that? oh you playing high for me They say cut the grass and the snakes will show Is you niggas mad at me or do you hate my dough Just let me know [Chorus: Nipsey Hussle] It's so hard out here But I'm still breathing I said it's hard out here But my nigga I ain't leaving [Verse 2: Nipsey Hussle] Lookie When I was 15 my momma kicked me out and changed the locks Her husband used to beat on us and talk shit alot You ain't my daddy, nigga I ain't gotta listen to you Then my momma switched sides like nigga, yeah you do I used to wanna stay away, used to hate to come home Outcasted from the family cos we wasn't his own Now that's scandalous, how'd you let him hit me that hard? Now that's scandalous, how'd you let your two kids starve? No lunch money, was bummy and treated like a step child Let me loose on these streets, the nigga went wild No direction, false concept of family Quick to bust the first damn burner that they handed me Momma these white folks'll never understand a gee Crying to the judge and they still reprimanded me Used to wonder why you act like you always was mad at me When cuz was the issue but momma I forgive you [Chorus: Nipsey Hussle] It's so hard out here But I'm still breathing I said it's hard out here But my nigga I ain't leaving
