Aaron Cole, Mali Music - Hard Times lyrics

(Walk with me, Jesus, Take me by my hand)

We gon' make it through these hard times
 yeah make it through these hard times, yeah
Keep pushin' and it's alright
Keep your head up, you'll be alright (yeah)

Like a tree standing in the hard times
There in the struggle, I'm not part-time
Statements of you coming to ya last dime
Came to tell you this won't be the last ride
Yeah

Promise we gon' make it through
These hard times, yeah, yeah
We gon' make it through these hard times
Yeah keep goin' and it's alright
Keep your head up, you'll be just fine
(yeah, yeah)

Like a tree planted in the hard times
There in the struggle, I'm not part-time
Statements of you coming to ya last dime
Came to tell you this won't be the last ride
Yeah

I done lost a family member every year
I been swimming in a puddle full of tears
Every step come with a little bit fear
But, you know I got my head up to the sky

Know we gonna make it
Through these hard times
Handing off my battles, I done tried
But, it's alright
And I'm just saying that it's alright

What if I told you you're never really alone
Alone yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
And when it gets hard, just pick up the phone
Like MJ, I'll be right there
Just a call away, I'll be right there
Right there

We gon' make it through these hard times
Yeah make it through these hard times, yeah
Keep pushin' and it's alright
Keep your head up, you'll be alright

Like a tree standing in the hard times
There in the struggle, I'm not part-time
Statements of you coming to ya last dime
Came to tell you this won't be the last ride
Yeah

Promise we gon' make it
Through these hard times, yeah, yeah
We gon' make it through these hard times
Yeah keep goin' and it's alright
Keep your head up, you'll be just fine
(yeah, yeah)

Like a tree planted in the hard times
There in the struggle, I'm not part-time
Statements of you coming to ya last dime
Came to tell you this won't be the last ride

We been going through it like the
Luggage go in X rays
I been hitting walls like skaters
In the X Games got me in soft shape but
I been planning escape
See me workin' but I'm getting all my rest
'kay?

And I might use the miles for vacation
I'ma be in turbulence praying
When I land, they say, "Welcome to Jamaica"
Maybe I'll return to the motherland

What if I told you you're never really alone
Yeah, yeah
And when it gets hard, just pick up the phone
Like MJ, I'll be right there
Just a call away, I'll be right there (yeah)

We gon' make it through these hard times
Yeah make it through these hard times, yeah
Keep pushin' and it's alright
Keep your head up, you'll be alright

Like a tree planted in the hard times
There in the struggle, I'm not part-time
Statements of you coming to ya last dime
Came to tell you this won't be the last ride
