Ghiscaine Fleischmann - Hard Knock Life (MTV Unplugged) lyrics

[Intro] Bounce Left and right Left and right Come on Uh Uh Che Uhuh Yeah keep it best man Nah nah you don't sing yet man Sing now! [Hook: Jaguar Wright (Jay Z)] It's the hard knock life for us It's the hard knock life for us! Instead of treated, we get tricked Instead of kisses, we get kicked It's the hard knock life! (I love you) [Verse 1] From standing on the corners boppin' To driving some of the hottest cars New York has ever seen For dropping some of the hottest verses rap has ever heard From the dope spot, with the smoke Glock fleeing the murder scene You know me well... From nightmares of a lonely cell, my only hell But since when y'all know me to fail? Nuh uh Where all my brother with the rubber grips, bust shots And if you with me mama rub on your hips, 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 50/50, 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 the homie Biggie, baby! You know it's hell when I come through The life and times of Shawn Carter, y'all Volume 2, y'all n***as get ready Sing! [Hook: Jaguar Wright (Jay Z)] It's the hard knock life for us It's the hard knock life for us! (I can't hear y'all) Instead of treated, we get tricked Instead of kisses, we get kicked It's the hard knock life!
