It's Hard Out Here for a Pimp from Hustle Flow

You know it's hard out here for a pimp

When you're trying to get this money for the rent

For the Cadillac and gas money spent

Will have a whole lot of bitches jumpin' ship

In my eyes, I done seen some crazy things on the street

Got a couple holes poked in my chain, just for me

But I gotta keep my game tight, like Kobe on a game night

I take it from my hood, don't know whether I know that it ain't right

I done seen people kill, I done seen people deal

I done seen people living off the tea and with no meals

It's rude up where I live, but that's just how it is

It might be new to you, but it's been like this for years

It's probably square of cheese when it come down to this shit

I'm trying to get rich before I leave out this bitch

I'm trying to have things, but it's hard for a pimp

But I'm praying, and I'm hoping to God I don't slip

Man, it seems like I'm ducking, dodging bullets every day

Hating on me 'cause I got holes on the track

But I gotta stay paid, gotta stay above water

Couldn't keep up with my hos, that's when shit gone harder

North Memphis where I'm from, I'm saying this rebound

Waste all the time and I'm lost and never found

Man, these bills they were cruel things, leave a big head

Think I'm hoping every night, they don't end up being dead

Wait, I got a snow bunny and a black girl too

You pay the right price and they both do you

That's the way the game goes, gotta keep it strictly

Gotta have my muscle tight, make a change off this mini-yeah
