Welcome to hard times Back again Like its never been For the first time It seems to mess with my head Now when I realize what it takes Can I relate To whatever but never will it drive me to hate Could be the next guy that you take before I wake Now I lay me down to sleep, eyes tight when I pray This here is real life, circumstances make you think Should I be counting my blessings? The next second my eyes blink Here in the Southtown, you know that kid don't play Put it down in the streets, will I see another day If I make it back this time, gots to hold what is mine And thank God that I made it alive One love, its easier said than done Can I rise above everything that comes my way? Like words you say You let your tongue get loose But when push comes to shove, not used to walking away I keep on looking up, cause these times, they getting tough Tomorrow's gone, and its the same old song Father fill my cup, give me strength to power up A life to shine, you're the diamond in this rough Dont wanna throw up my fist, aint got to be like this dont wanna throw up my fist i must resist It aint gots to be (like this)
