(DJ Blazin) Intro: (0:00:00 – 0:00:12)
Hey man you know “Hard Knock Life's”
That was great by “Jay Z”
But this is the remix and it is
DJ Blazin
(Children) Chorus: (0:00:11 – 0:00:25)
It's the hard knock life (uh-huh) for us
It's the hard knock life, for us!!
Steada treated, we get tricked
Steada kisses, we get kicked
It's the hard knock life!!
(DJ Blazin) Verse 1: (0:00:25 – 0:01:14) [Jay Z]
From goin to the city and goin to the country
24/7; we drivin in the country
24/7; we flyin in Italy
And we goin into [You know me well] Iraq
And don't forget the countries that are forgotten
Don't forget the countries that get beaten
But don't forget the countries that worship
God, Jesus, and the Holy Ghost ever single day
When you think about “Hard Knock”
You think about troubles
When you think about trials
You think about tribulations
When you think about money
When you think about power
You think about control
And think about respect
You think about those that go through punishment
You think about those that get beaten
Not only in the trial; in the murder case
But also in “The America Courthouse”
(Children) Chorus: (0:01:13 – 0:01:27)
It's the hard knock life, for us
It's the hard knock life, for us!!
Steada treated, we get tricked
Steada kisses, we get kicked
It's the hard knock life!!
(DJ Blazin) Verse 2: (0:01:27 – 0:02:17)
As young Afrunican Americans
And “White Americans” and “Latino Americans”
In this day and age; it's hard to survive
And in this day and age; we all go through the struggles
But every single day; we pray to our God
Jesus and the Holy Ghost for save and salvation
And that we get filled with the sweet Holy Ghost
That we get a lot of money; goin back to the world
We got a president that has the money
And he is a great business man
But it's up to him; whether he doe's business
Or not, but we got to pray everyday
And when we think about troubles, trials, and tribulations
We go to the ghetto; we go to the gangs
We go to the corporations with money
And that's why it's called
(The World Wrestling Federation)
(Children) Chorus: (0:02:16 – 0:02:42) Twice
It's the hard knock life, for us
It's the hard knock life, for us!!
Steada treated, we get tricked
Steada kisses, we get kicked
It's the hard knock life, for us
It's the hard knock life, for us!!
Steada treated, we get tricked
Steada kisses, we get kicked
It's the hard knock life!!
(DJ Blazin) Verse 3: (0:02:42 – 0:03:07)
I told my mom the other day; that I wanted to rap
But she said no; you can't be in the rap business
You can't be in the Hip-Hop Business, because
You will get shot and k**ed in Daylight
You may get k**ed in the nighttime in the NightFall
But you gotta watch and go to the Fall
You gotta go all the way to the Fall
To the Winter, Spring, Summer, and the Olympics
(Children) Chorus: (0:03:05 – 0:03:32) Twice
It's the hard knock life, for us
It's the hard knock life, for us!!
Steada treated, we get tricked
Steada kisses, we get kicked
It's the hard knock life, for us
It's the hard knock life, for us!!
Steada treated, we get tricked
Steada kisses, we get kicked
It's the hard knock life!!
(DJ Blazin) Ending: (0:03:33 – 0:03:56)
