It's a cold place, work to death till the loans paid You drive to work and punch the clock and break your back for low wage Weekends full of cocaine, get drunk till you don't know pain Reminisce with your old friends by old times in the old days Old flames all burnt out like a barbecue with no propane But a bumpy ride through a rough time, but you're a tough guy, and you won't break Had enough nights full of bloody sweat, at least you know how both tastes Had to cut ties in your love life 'cause your dumb fights left broke plates Your bros change, your folks age, your own grave in close range You're so brave, you're stoneface, there's no shame if you show pain You bones ain't got no faith, so God lets you live your way Go tell the bathroom mirror what you won't pray to your own face
I ain't fast like a speeding bullet I ain't strong like a hurricane I ain't as big as the bridge to Brooklyn Just a man that my father raised
They can lock me up, they can beat me down They can take my truck, they can take my house Mama made me tough, I'mma make her proud 'Cause when life gets rough, I will stand my ground
It's desperate times, you rest your eyes, but you stress all night So you don't sleep a second, just obsess and guess the next surprise You can't relax you truck, I told the Chevy's just collecting fines You swear that you can't take no more like every day's offense to climb You're human, solutions don't exist if you don't sketch designs The blueprints you been using built your truth on top of web of lies Ruined by the sewage, you produce by not connecting lines Excuses are like bruises that you get if you regret the fight The bills you kept are swept aside, the person you elected lied Investments were a lesson, you're in debt, and rent is getting high You excersice to lessen all the stresses that affect your life You did your best, you can't expect perfection, just accept you tried
I ain't fast like a speeding bullet I ain't strong like a hurricane I ain't as big as the bridge to Brooklyn Just a man that my father raised
They can lock me up, they can beat me down They can take my truck, they can take my house Mama made me tough, I'mma make her proud 'Cause when life gets rough, I will stand my ground
I can't jump a building, I'm not superman Shoot me with a bullet, and I'll die Can't stop a locomotive with a single hand Because I'm just a man, but I will try
They can lock me up They can take my truck Mama made me tough I'mma make her proud
They can lock me up, they can beat me down They can take my truck, they can take my house Mama made me tough, I'mma make her proud 'Cause when life gets rough, I will stand my groundTeksty umieszczone na naszej stronie są własnością wytwórni, wykonawców, osób mających do nich prawa.
