CJ Fly - Harder lyrics

[Hook] Dolla signs, the values we respect Living by their standard 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' bout a thing At it easy if you think you had it bad, they had it harder [Verse 1] Weigh your actions out when they the pyramids Who the f** 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 sh** took Then they couldn't even buy food that was already cooked Now they sayin' they a hustler cause they saw it with an 8-ball Claimin' movin' bricks ain't 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 would save up [Hook] Dollar signs, the values we respect Living by their standard 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' bout a thing At it easy if you think you had it bad, they had it harder [Bridge] You think you had it bad, they had it harder You think you had 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 got it bad, they had it harder You think 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 (Dollar signs, the values we respect) (Dollar signs, the values we respect) [Verse 2] Sittin on my conscience Different type of conscious Worship those with money sh** on those with nothing They ain't think I'd make it Treat it like I ain't sh** I ain't constipated That makes me look anxious Spread it like my fire Never been a liar Swear I been a profit My name ain't aliyah Gotta get this profit My boys keep on pillin' Mama worked now gotta move her out the projects Everybody know the police out here wylin' k**in' n***as 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 Dollar signs, the values we respect
