Hard Times

Yeah, I know we been through hard times You know it's hard to break and play fine I been self-destructive up in my mind I could feel the pressure when we cut ties They could see the sadness stuck in my eyes Threw away my heart and strengthened my pride They could see the sadness stuck in my eyes Why can I never get past this? Think I'm addicted to the madness Another shot of liquor, I'll be victim to the blackness, past tense I'm doing shit they can't imagine Picture-perfect image of a kid who didn't have shit Bet y'all thought I never would've made it off the blacklist The black sheep and all I ever lacked was some compassion Took it to the heart and put it back into my passion Fear no reaction, take pride in crashing See through the glasses of past disasters This life's a mess, so live like it's lavish Raise through the ashes, reap what you've ravaged Preach what you practice, seek no distraction Please take some action, can't bank on magic They didn't warn you, things could be tragic Make no mistake, just handle your baggage Where's all the fun if things were just average? Yeah, I know we been through hard times You know it's hard to break and play fine I been self-destructive up in my mind I could feel the pressure when we cut ties They could see the sadness stuck in my eyes Threw away my heart and strengthened my pride They could see the sadness stuck in my eyes I know I've made some bad decisions I've never had the same intentions I know I've made some bad decisions I've never had the same intentions
