Harder - Cj Fly

Dollar signs, the values we respect

Living by their standards that they taught us

You already know what it is

If you don’t it’s depending on the way that you was brought up

Gotta keep it real with the kids

For centuries our people been tortured

Don’t need to be complainin' about a thing

Got it easy, if you think you got it bad, they had it harder

Where your ass was at when they built pyramids?

Who the fuck you think had built a palace for the kids?

Stay exaggerating like you do with everything

Woulda thought that they was goin' through it everyday

Every task ain’t as hard as it looks

They ain’t have cars, had to walk there by foot

Just imagine how long that shit took

Then they couldn’t even buy food that was already cooked

Now they sayin' they a hustler cause they sold it with an 8-ball

Claimin' movin' bricks ain’t nothing like the ones that built the great wall

You can act like you don’t know and be the only one to play dumb

Think we started from a ship, the motherland is where we came from

That’s before they decided they wouldn’t save us

Got it easy, if you think you got it bad, they had it harder

You think you got it bad, they had it harder

You think you got it bad, they had it harder

Don’t need to be complainin' bout a thing

They was risking their lives just to maintain order

You think you got it bad, they had it harder

You think you got it bad, they had it harder

Don’t need to be complainin' bout a thing

They was risking their lives just to maintain order

Sittin on my conscience, different type of conscious

Worship those with money, shit on those with nothing

They think I won’t make it, treated like I ain’t shit

I ain’t constipated, knowledge we not ancient

Spread it like wild fire, never been a liar

Swear I been a prophet, my name ain’t Elijah

Gotta get this profit, my boys keep on piling

Mama working gotta move her out the projects

Everybody know the police out here wylin'

Killin' niggas even children gettin' bodied

This is why all the rules I do not follow

They just showin' us the power of the dollar

They just showin' us the power of the dollar
