Apathy - Hard Times On Planet Earth lyrics
[Apathy - Hard Times On Planet Earth lyrics]
Been there since day
One saw the whole thing we dropped out
Of high school together but, if I could go
Backif I could go back i'd say
"Please momma please
Please momma don't let me drop out of school
I'll regret it after
I run away to New York and try to be a rapper
I never thought me being white
Would be a factor
Before Eminem it was hard for a cracker
I really pray to God that I'll survive
Cause, I've never been the one to
Hold a 9 to 5
Self educated, dedicated to the shit I do
No brother or sister, all I got is my crew
Hand full of people I trust
But truckloads of snakes
Ask KRS and Kurtis Blow, those are The Breaks
If I don't blow the fuck
Up and blast into space
They'll be lookin' at my face like, "Damn
What a waste" lotta pressure
Gotta be stronger and gotta be better
Bet I can pull it together
And make hit's forever
I seen the glamor and glitz, it ain't shit
I split when Atlantic tried to
Make me their bitch
It's so hard hey baby
And it's so hard long time no see
It's so hard hey baby
And it's so hard and it's so hard
Hard times on planet Earth hey baby
And it's so hard
What could you want with me?
And it's so hard hard times on planet Earth
Hard times on planet Earth
I know Ryu can relate to every word
Of this shit we're chillin' backstage with
Jay-Z at the House Of Blues and I
Got $300 dollars in my bank
Look Dad, I got shows all over the world
And your boy is the man with girls
I know you see me in magazines
In shows with Linkin Park
It's been 10 years when's the
Big money gonna start?
My songs on TV and video games
But nothings changed in the
Ways of financial gains
I got friends that are famous
I do shows in Vegas
But got worse credit than
People with minimum wages
I guess it's hereditary or it's contagious
You always thought they jobs
Were society's cages
And I'm just like you, I can't punch clocks
You would stay up with me
Taping rap on my boombox
Back in '86, bought me Run DMC
I wish she told me study
Business or be an EMT
Somethin', anything to prove my worth
Everyday since my birth
Hard times on planet Earth
It's so hard hey baby
And it's so hard long time no see
It's so hard hey baby
And it's so hard and it's so hard
Hard times on planet Earth hey baby
And it's so hard
What could you want with me?
And it's so hard hard times on planet Earth
Hard times on planet Earth
