The Hard Way - IV Jay
Play the audio for 'The Hard Way'[Verse 1]
Thought what I wanted
Was what I needed
All these reflections
Showing me something different
[Pre-Chorus]
But when I'm down, who's gonna love me?
Who's gonna leave me?
Who's gonna lift me up?
When I need a smile for a second
To change my direction
The day gets better with you
I don't wanna be, be a burden
I'm still learning
[Chorus]
You can't tell me nothing
Oh, even if I fall down on my face
You can't tell me nothing
'Cause I gotta learn it the hard way, hard way
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, I'm thankful for my blessings
And I'm grateful for my lessons
Please, don't worry 'bout me, baby
You can't save me
Can't tell me nothing
'Cause I gotta learn it the hard way, hard way
Hard to find the old me
When I'm in this new phase
All these opinions starting to bring me down
All of these diamonds starting to weigh me down
I thought the money was a solution
Could have all the money in the world and still have problems
Oh-oh, ooh-ooh
[Pre-Chorus]
But when I'm down, who's gonna love me?
Who's gonna leave me?
Who's gonna lift me up?
When I need a smile for a second
To change my direction
The day gets better with you
I don't wanna be (Don't wanna be), be a burden (Be a burden)
I'm still learning (I'm still learning)
[Chorus]
You can't tell me nothing (Nothing)
Oh, even if I fall down on my face
You can't tell me nothing (Nothing)
'Cause I gotta learn it the hard way, hard way
[Post-Chorus]
Oh, I'm thankful for my blessings
And I'm grateful for my lessons
Please, don't worry 'bout me, baby
You can't save me
Can't tell me nothing
'Cause I gotta learn it the hard way, hard way
