Preacher man on the pew, rambling on about what he don't know
Teacher glaring at the student, she got that
Look in her eyes, don't be surprised Billy
The senator is a sinner, not everybody's
A winner, winner no chicken dinner
Long as that flame keep burning, the world gon' keep on turning
So I hustle hard cause I gotta provide for my mama
Tito he locked up, couple dollars for my partner
My sister she knocked up, need some food and them diapers
So I be on my shit, moving smooth windshield wipers
Catch me in my whip, cruising through the lights
Just tryna hit a lick, dude looking righteous
I might just run up on a nigga with that yappa out
Trynna stop me now and it's all dirt
Hard work, hard work in the city
Everybody working hard for a penny
It's a hard workin' the life
Of a student, a tutor, a soldier, husband, a wife
Hard work in the city
Everybody working for a piece of pie, it's a pity
Hard workin' the life
Everybody tryna make it the right way
Hard, hard work
Hard work in the city
Hard, hard work
Hard workin' the life
Sunroof top with the diamond in the back
Cadillac black on black
Five room spot with a view like a map
Motherfucker, how you like that?
I still don't have a pot to piss in
They tell me stop, I can't listen
Gotta keep punching clocks for the children
Because my card ain't clearing and they all want ice cream
So I'm sideways like Siamese on five drinks
You got a house on the hill, your car's a coupe
I got bills, I got bills and they all overdue
So hard to move when your car get the boot
And granny sick as shit cause mildew still live all in her roof
These politics be at our neck but they ball cause of you
I call that nigga disrespect just to call it the truth
I promise never to neglect what I bring to the youth
If I ever need a check I just follow these boots, hard work
Hard work, hard work in the city
Everybody working hard for a penny
It's a hard workin' the life
Of a student, a tutor, a soldier, husband, a wife
Hard work in the city
Everybody working for a piece of pie, it's a pity
Hard workin' the life
Everybody tryna make it the right way
Hard, hard work
Hard work in the city
Hard, hard work
Hard workin' the life
