Hard Knock Life (Ghetto Anthem)
Charles Strouse, Mark James, Martin Charnin, Sean Carter
Take the bassline out, uh-huh
Jigga (bounce wit it), uh-huh uh-huh uh-huh, yeah
Let it bump, though
It's the hard knock life (uh-huh) for us
It's the hard knock life, for us
'Stead of treated, we get tricked
'Stead of kisses, we get kicked
It's the hard knock life
From standin' on the corners boppin'
To drivin' some of the hottest cars New York has ever seen
For droppin' some of the hottest verses rap has ever heard
From the dope spot, with the smoke Glock
Fleein' the murder scene, you know me well
From nightmares of a lonely cell, my only hell
But since when y'all niggas know me to fail? Fuck nah
Where all my niggas with the rubber grips? Bust shots
And if you with me, ma I'll rub on your tits, and what-not
I'm from the school of the hard knocks, we must not
Let outsiders violate our blocks, and my plot
Let's stick up the world and split it fifty-fifty, uh-huh
Let's take the dough and stay real jiggy, uh-huh
And sip the Cris' and get pissy-pissy
Flow infinitely like the memory of my nigga Biggie, baby
You know it's hell when I come through
The life and times of Shawn Carter
Nigga, Volume 2, y'all niggas get ready
It's the hard knock life, for us
It's the hard knock life, for us
'Stead of treated, we get tricked
'Stead of kisses, we get kicked
It's the hard knock life
I flow for those 'dro'ed out, all my niggas
Locked down in the ten by four, controllin' the house
We live in hard knocks, we don't take over we borrow blocks
Burn 'em down and you can have it back daddy, I'd rather that
I flow for chicks wishin', they ain't have to strip to pay tuition
I see your vision, mama, I put my money on the long shots
All my ballers that's born to clock
Now I'ma be on top whether I perform or not
I went from lukewarm to hot, sleepin' on futons and cots
To king size, green machines, the green fives
I've seen pies let the thing between my eyes analyze life's ills
Then I put it down, type braille
I'm tight grill with the phony, rappers y'all might feel we homies
I'm like still, y'all don't know me, shit
I'm tight grill when my situation ain't improving
I'm tryna murder everything movin', feel me?
It's the hard knock life, for us
It's the hard knock life, for us
'Stead of treated, we get tricked
'Stead of kisses, we get kicked
It's the hard knock life, for us
It's the hard knock life, for us
'Stead of treated, we get tricked
'Stead of kisses, we get kicked
It's the hard knock life
I don't how to sleep, I gotta eat, stay on my toes
Gotta a lot of beef, so logically, I prey on my foes
Hustling's still inside of me, and as far as progress
You'd be hard-pressed, to find another rapper hot as me
I gave you prophecy on my first joint, and y'all all lamed out
Didn't really appreciate it, 'til the second one came out
So I stretched the game out, X'ed your name out
Put Jigga on top, and drop albums non-stop for ya, nigga
It's the hard knock life, for us
It's the hard knock life, for us!
'Stead of treated, we get tricked
'Stead of kisses, we get kicked

It's the hard knock life, for us
C'est la vie difficile, pour nous
'Stead of treated, we get tricked
Au lieu d'être traités, on se fait avoir
'Stead of kisses, we get kicked
Au lieu de bisous, on se fait botter
It's the hard knock life
C'est la vie difficile
From standin' on the corners boppin'
De rester debout sur les coins en se trémoussant
To drivin' some of the hottest cars New York has ever seen
À conduire certaines des voitures les plus chaudes que New York ait jamais vues
For droppin' some of the hottest verses rap has ever heard
Pour lâcher certaines des rimes les plus chaudes que le rap ait jamais entendues
From the dope spot, with the smoke Glock
Du coin de la drogue, avec le Glock fumant
Fleein' the murder scene, you know me well
Fuyant la scène du meurtre, tu me connais bien
From nightmares of a lonely cell, my only hell
Des cauchemars d'une cellule solitaire, mon seul enfer
But since when y'all niggas know me to fail? Fuck nah
Mais depuis quand vous me connaissez pour échouer ? Merde non
Where all my niggas with the rubber grips? Bust shots
Où sont tous mes négros avec les poignées en caoutchouc ? Tire des coups de feu
And if you with me, ma I'll rub on your tits, and what-not
Et si tu es avec moi, ma chérie, je frotterai tes seins, et tout ça
I'm from the school of the hard knocks, we must not
Je viens de l'école des coups durs, on ne doit pas
Let outsiders violate our blocks, and my plot
Laisser les étrangers violer nos quartiers, et mon terrain
Let's stick up the world and split it fifty-fifty, uh-huh
Allons braquer le monde et le partager en deux, uh-huh
Let's take the dough and stay real jiggy, uh-huh
Prenons l'argent et restons vraiment branchés, uh-huh
And sip the Cris' and get pissy-pissy
Et sirotons le Cris' et devenons pissy-pissy
Flow infinitely like the memory of my nigga Biggie, baby
Coule à l'infini comme la mémoire de mon pote Biggie, bébé
You know it's hell when I come through
Tu sais que c'est l'enfer quand je débarque
The life and times of Shawn Carter

Enfermés dans le dix par quatre, contrôlant la maison
We live in hard knocks, we don't take over we borrow blocks
Nous vivons des coups durs, nous ne prenons pas le dessus, nous empruntons des quartiers
Burn 'em down and you can have it back daddy, I'd rather that
Brûlez-les et vous pouvez les récupérer papa, je préfère ça
I flow for chicks wishin', they ain't have to strip to pay tuition
Je coule pour les filles qui souhaitent, elles n'ont pas à se déshabiller pour payer leurs études
I see your vision, mama, I put my money on the long shots
Je vois ta vision, maman, je mise mon argent sur les coups longs
All my ballers that's born to clock
Tous mes ballers qui sont nés pour horloger
Now I'ma be on top whether I perform or not
Maintenant je vais être au top que je joue ou pas
I went from lukewarm to hot, sleepin' on futons and cots
Je suis passé de tiède à chaud, dormant sur des futons et des lits de camp
To king size, green machines, the green fives
En taille king, machines vertes, les cinq verts
I've seen pies let the thing between my eyes analyze life's ills
J'ai vu des tartes laisser la chose entre mes yeux analyser les maux de la vie
Then I put it down, type braille
Puis je l'écris, en braille
I'm tight grill with the phony, rappers y'all might feel we homies
Je suis grill serré avec les faux, les rappeurs que vous pourriez ressentir nous sommes potes
I'm like still, y'all don't know me, shit
Je suis comme toujours, vous ne me connaissez pas, merde
I'm tight grill when my situation ain't improving
Je suis grill serré quand ma situation ne s'améliore pas

J'ai beaucoup de bœuf, donc logiquement, je fais des proies sur mes ennemis
Hustling's still inside of me, and as far as progress
L'agitation est toujours en moi, et en ce qui concerne le progrès
You'd be hard-pressed, to find another rapper hot as me
Vous auriez du mal à trouver un autre rappeur aussi chaud que moi
I gave you prophecy on my first joint, and y'all all lamed out
Je vous ai donné la prophétie sur mon premier morceau, et vous avez tous lâché
Didn't really appreciate it, 'til the second one came out
Vous n'avez pas vraiment apprécié, jusqu'à ce que le deuxième sorte
