K-Rino, Ronetta Spencer - A Hard Time lyrics
[K-Rino, Ronetta Spencer - A Hard Time lyrics]
I have a hard time, chasing my dreams
I have to have a strong mind
When the water got deep
I had to go the whole nine
A lot of nights no sleep
I love it when it feels like
I'm on my own two feet yeahhh
Now, when ya boy first started out
All I did was rap
Didn't know what business was all about
Flow was tight
I wanted to be the next Dolemite
Young and foolish
Thinking that I was gonna blow up overnight
Sending all demo tapes 'cause my
Skill was getting better
Still remember my first major
Label rejection letter
Looking back now I'm so happy
They didn't sign me
Cause at the time I would've
Just dove in blindly
I learned how to maneuver patiently
The hood treated me favorably
And every mistake I made educated me
Some loved while others hated me
How did I make it through the snakery
The song is not over, you gotta wait and see
I have a hard time, chasing my dreams
I have to have a strong mind
When the water got deep
I had to go the whole nine
A lot of nights no sleep
I love it when it feels like
I'm on my own two feet yeahhh
Eventually I begin to see
All of the wickedness in the industry
Fell in love with the premise
Of getting it independently
Had the tendency to miss signals
That God was sending me
But even though I suffered some
Losses it didn't hinder me
Witnessed many crazy dynamics be in an artist
Some said my lyrics were hard but
Thought that my beats were garbage
Even when I started getting popular
Still I was starving
Cars passing by me playing my
Music while I was walking
Rap not paying the bills
You're scared to open the mail
People wishing you success but
Inside hoping you fail
You've got a goal in mind
With no means of achieving
It's lonely chasing a dream that only
You seem to believe in
I have a hard time, chasing my dreams
I have to have a strong mind
When the water got deep
I had to go the whole nine
A lot of nights no sleep
I love it when it feels like
I'm on my own two feet yeahhh
It's not many people who know
How truly deep it can go
Still receiving and decent proposal
For feature and shows
The cheapest promoters leach on
The most seasoned pro's
And thoughts of leaving
I can list plenty reasons for those
Keeping composure is the secret
We should impose i heated that when the
Payout frequency slowed
I beat up the road seeking more
Music seeds I can sow
And it wasn't always available when
I needed some dough
I'm still learning long as I've been in this
It switches up fast
You might ask how could I love
Something so vicious and bad
All I can say is when you find
Your gift stay on your note
If you master a situation you
Can shape the result
I have a hard time, chasing my dreams
I have to have a strong mind
When the water got deep
I had to go the whole nine
A lot of nights no sleep
I love it when it feels like
I'm on my own two feet yeahhh
I have to have a strong mind
When the water got deep
I had to go the whole nine
A lot of nights no sleep
I love it when it feels like
I'm on my own two feet yeahhh
Now, when ya boy first started out
All I did was rap
Didn't know what business was all about
