Jay-Z - Hard Knock Life(VOL.2)[00:00:00]
Check the bassline out' uh-huh[00:00:02]
Jigga (bounce wit it)' uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh' yeahh[00:00:06]
Let it bump though[00:00:11]
It's the hard knock life (uh-huh) for us[00:00:11]
It's the hard knock life' for us!![00:00:14]
Steada treated' we get tricked[00:00:17]
Steada kisses' we get kicked[00:00:20]
It's the hard knock life!![00:00:23]
From standin on the corners boppin[00:00:25]
To drivin some of the hottest cars New York has ever seen[00:00:27]
For droppin some of the hottest verses rap has ever heard[00:00:29]
From the d**e spot' with the smoke Glock[00:00:33]
Fleein the murder scene' you know me well[00:00:35]
From nightmares of a lonely cell' my only hell[00:00:37]
But since when y'all niggaz know me to fail? F**k naw[00:00:40]
Where all my niggaz with the rubber grips' bust shots[00:00:43]
And if you with me mom I rub on your tits' and what-not[00:00:46]
I'm from the school of the hard knocks' we must not[00:00:49]
Let outsiders violate our blocks' and my plot[00:00:52]
Let's stick up the world and split it fifty/fifty' uh-huh[00:00:56]
Let's take the dough and stay real jiggy' uh-huh[00:00:58]
And sip the Cris' and get pissy-pissy[00:01:02]
Flow infinitely like the memory of my ni**a Biggie' baby![00:01:04]
You know it's hell when I come through[00:01:08]
The life and times of Shawn Carter[00:01:10]
Ni**a Volume 2' y'all niggaz get ready[00:01:12]
It's the hard knock life' for us[00:01:14]
It's the hard knock life' for us!![00:01:16]
Steada treated' we get tricked[00:01:19]
Steada kisses' we get kicked[00:01:23]
It's the hard knock life!![00:01:26]
I flow for those 'dro'ed out; all my niggaz[00:01:28]
Locked down in the ten by fo'' controllin the house[00:01:30]
We live in hard knocks' we don't take over we borrow blocks[00:01:33]
Burn em down and you can have it back daddy' I'd rather that[00:01:36]
I flow for chicks wishin' they ain't have to strip to pay tuition[00:01:39]
I see you vision mama' I put my money on the longshots[00:01:43]
All my ballers that's born to clock[00:01:47]
Now I'ma be on top whether I perform or not[00:01:49]
I went from lukewarm to hot; sleepin on futons and cots[00:01:52]
To King Size' dream machines' the green fives[00:01:56]
I've seen pies let the thing between my eyes analyze life's ills[00:01:58]
Then I put it down type braile[00:02:02]
I'm tight grill with the phony' rappers y'all might feel we homies[00:02:04]
I'm like still' y'all don't know me' sh*t![00:02:08]
I'm tight grill when my situation ain't improvin[00:02:10]
I'm tryin to murder everything movin' feel me?![00:02:13]
It's the hard knock life' for us[00:02:16]
It's the hard knock life' for us!![00:02:22]
Steada treated' we get tricked[00:02:22]
Steada kisses' we get kicked[00:02:25]
It's the hard knock life' for us[00:02:28]
It's the hard knock life' for us!![00:02:32]
Steada treated' we get tricked[00:02:35]
Steada kisses' we get kicked[00:02:37]
It's the hard knock life!![00:02:41]
I don't how to sleep' I gotta eat' stay on my toes[00:02:42]
Gotta a lot of beef' so logically' I prey on my foes[00:02:45]
Hustling's still inside of me' and as far as progress[00:02:48]
You'd be hard-pressed' to find another rapper hot as me[00:02:51]
I gave you prophecy on my first joint' and y'all lamed out[00:02:54]
Didn't really appreciate it' til the second one came out[00:02:57]
So I stretched the game out' X'ed your name out[00:03:00]
Put Jigga on top' and drop albums non-stop for ya' nigguh![00:03:03]
It's the hard knock life' for us[00:03:06]
It's the hard knock life' for us!![00:03:09]
Steada treated' we get tricked[00:03:12]
Steada kisses' we get kicked[00:03:15]
It's the hard knock life' for us[00:03:18]
It's the hard knock life' for us!![00:03:21]
Steada treated' we get tricked[00:03:24]
Steada kisses' we get kicked[00:03:27]
It's the hard knock life!![00:03:30]
