B 4 Prez !

It's kinda like a hard knock song

One's sleeping in tha streets cuz' tha world is wrong

This is maniac tha whole plan is overboard

Rent so steep I might smack the landlord

It's hard times on a global scale

Crooked cops on tha streets filllin' up tha jails

Wanna go to school but can't pay tuition

Only hearin' lies from all tha politicians

This is tha life where I'm from

and I don't give a fuck cuz' tha world is slum

no matter where u at or if u got money

can't hide from tha fact that the streets is hungry

it's bound to come back like bunjees

or even boomerang cuz' tha karmas ugly

each man deserve respect

whether or not he got commas off in his check

This is for tha world-

Takin'on hard knocks tha trade winds swirl

Goin through hard times this is for tha world

It's hard to find work these days

Couldn't even get a job payin minimum wage

Taxin' us to death with cuts for the wealthy

Ain't got insurance and dog that ain't healthy

And wonder why i keep on tha grind

Gotta stay makin beats just to ease my mind

The city is a magnet for violent crime

You can get held up for your cash at any time

They fightin' wars but movies televised

Got twenty news stations that sensationalize

Currency is weak no signs of gettin' better

Paid fifty just to fill up tha tank in Mike's Jetta

Spendin' more chedda with tha price inflatin

Fake candidates on tha stage debatin'

I gots no choice in who runs for government

I'm a say fuck tha world B.A. for president

This is for tha world-

Takin'on hard knocks tha trade winds swirl

Goin through hard times this is for tha world
