Lloyd Banks - Work Hard lyrics

[Produced by Tha Jerm] [Hook: Lloyd Banks] You ain't gon get the money just blocking You do it well but hatings no job n***a for everything I got I had to work hard You ain't gon make it here with no heart You be leakin here for nothin' n***a You'll never be somebody just waiting Being too patience won't leave no mark n***a for everything I got I had to work hard You ain't gon make it here with no heart I be leaving here with somethin' n***a [Verse 1: Lloyd Banks] You clocking short with all that hate in your blood You f**ing leech throwing your weight around Just looking for places to sink your teeth Under my feet a million n***as the same You peek beneath sending them threats behind doors But up close you're speaking peace None of them n***as have belief in a n***a before success Holding your pride to come along for the ride, now walk the rest All of the things that to be consistent with, rather ease off the stress This is the sh** I'm supposed to kick it with nah, feet on you next n***as don't wanna put the work in rather eat off the vets Try to erase what I worked hard for had to keep all connects What's next? Street kept it realer huh Motherf**ing liar, perfectionistic grimy nature angel took us out the sky Crazy how n***as turned their back on me I got the millie though Just adds to my material, sticks on the ground in your video They laughing everywhere the face of a clown in the city scopes Story full of broken promises and silly hopes [Hook] You ain't gon get the money just blocking You do it well but hatings no job n***a for everything I got I had to work hard You ain't gon make it here with no heart You be leakin here for nothin' n***a You'll never be somebody just waiting Being too patience won't leave no mark n***a for everything I got I had to work hard You ain't gon make it here with no heart I be leaving here with somethin' n***a [Verse 2: Tony Yayo] We got them big poles that four long Just in case a n***a try to roll up Walking up on my feet getting calluses Sleeping in the trap on some cheap air mattresses Rain sleet or snow I'm 134 Arguing with speedy cos I made a sale in the store New years eve and champagne in the store About 500 n***as by that project door Reminiscing on them good days When you could make 10Gs in one day Lil homie went from the play pen to the state pen Mandatory life sentence that's how his life end My phone ring to the day I die n***a My work fire n***a no hot n***a We trap till the day that we die n***a Hot pipe on my waist I'm a real n***a [Hook] You ain't gon get the money just blocking You do it well but hatings no job n***a for everything I got I had to work hard You ain't gon make it here with no heart You be leaking here for nothin' n***a You'll never be somebody just waiting Being too patience won't leave no mark n***a for everything I got I had to work hard You ain't gon make it here with no heart I be leaving here with somethin' n***a [Verse 3: Lloyd banks] Spending your era faking rich Fools mistook it for wealth Hiding your weakness and critiquing, take a look at yourself You speeding everywhere for nothing Could have been where you want by now But without attention you can't function Won't nothing come without the hustling Your fooling yourself to think your actions ain't coming with repercussions Just a vulnerable to hell the neighborhood demons rushing It's a'ight you get back up you tough right the ceiling toughens You don made it this far bluffing, quit while you ahead Won't be acknowledged for flashing a n***a dollars when you dead I'ma sh** on y'all til God let me on out of here, you dig? n***a told the world you'll never flip on me, you dig? A disgrace to anything that's connected how could you live Another reason now my heart left lost and found in the fridge Do yourself a favor while you out wandering, find a bridge And the n***as that take you in they already know what it is [Hook] You ain't gon get the money just blocking You do it well but hatings no job n***a for everything I got I had to work hard You ain't gon make it here with no heart You be leaking here for nothin' n***a You'll never be somebody just waiting Being too patience won't leave no mark n***a for everything I got I had to work hard You ain't gon' make it here with no heart I be leaving here with somethin' n***a
