It Ain't Easy Lyrics - Me Against The World - 2pac

Keepin' it real 

I take a shot of Hennessey 

Now I'm strong enough to face the madness 

Nickel bag full of sess weed laced with hash 

Phone calls from my niggaz on the, other side 

Two childhood friends just died, I couldn't cry 

A damn shame, when will we ever change 

And what remains from a twelve gauge to the brain 

Arguments with my Boo is true 

I spend mo' time with my niggaz than I do with you 

But everywhere it's the same thang, that's the game 

I'll be damned if a thang changed, fuck the fame 

I'll be hustling to make a million 

Lord, knows ain't no love for us ghetto children, so we cold

Love Stinks, So Here Are 15 Anti-Valentine's Day Songs 

Watch Will Smith perform to iconic song 'Prince Ali' from Aladdin 

Rag top slowin' down, time to stop for gas 

Beep my horn for a hoochie with a proper ass 

It ain't easy, that's my motto 

Drinkin' Tanqueray straight out the bottle 

Everybody wanna know if I'm insane 

My baby mama gotta mind full of silly games 

And all the drama got me stressin' like I'm hopeless, I can't cope 

Me and the homies smokin' roaches, 'cause we broke 

Late night, hangin' out till the sunrise gettin' high 

Watchin' the cops roll by 

It ain't easy, that's right 

It ain't easy, being me 

Will I see the penitentiary or will I stay free 

It ain't easy, being me 

Will I see the penitentiary or will I stay free 

It ain't easy, being me 

Will I see the penitentiary or will I stay free

I can't sleep, niggaz plottin' on to kill me while I'm dreamin' 

Wake up sweaty and screamin', 

'Cause I can hear them suckers schemin' 

Probably paranoid, problem is, them punks be fantasizin' 

A brother bite the bullet, open fire and I died 

I wonder why this the way it is, even now 

Lookin' out for these killer kids, 'cause they wild 

Bill Clinton can you recognize a nigga representin' 

Doin' twenty to life in San Quentin 

Gettin' calls from my nigga Mike Tyson, ain't nuttin' nice 

Yo 'Pac, do somethin' righteous witcha life 

And even though you innocent you still a nigga, so they figure 

Rather have you behind bars than triggers 

But I'm hold ya down and holla Thug Life, lickin' shots 

Till I see my niggaz free on the block 

But no it ain't easy 

Till I see my niggaz free, on the block, oh 

It ain't easy 

It ain't easy, being me 

Will I see the penitentiary or will I stay free 

It ain't easy, being me 

Will I see the penitentiary or will I stay free 

It ain't easy, being me 

Will I see the penitentiary 

Lately been reminiscin' 

'Bout Peppermint Schnapps in Junior High hit the block 

Keep an eye on the cops while D-Boys slang rocks 

It's the project kid without a conscience, 

I'm havin' dreams of hearin' screams at my concerts 

Me all my childhood peers through the years 

Tryin' to stack a little green 

I was only seventeen, when I started servin' fiends 

And I wish there was another way to stack a dollar 

So my apoli', 'cause these hard times make me wanna holler 

Will I live to see tomorrow, am I fallin' off? 

I hit the weed and then proceed to say fuck all of y'all 

Ain't nobody down with me I'm thuggin', I can't go home 

'Cause muh-fuckers think I'm buggin' 

So now I'm in this high powered cell at the county jail 

Punk judge got a grudge, can't post no bail 

What do I do in these county blues 

Gettin' battered and bruised by the you know who 

And these fakes get to shakin' when they face me 

Snakes ain't got enough nuts to replace me 

Sittin' in this, livin' hell, listenin' to niggaz yell 

Tryin' to torture 'em to tell, I'm gettin' mail 

But ain't nobody sayin' much 

The same old nuts is makin' bucks 

While these sluts is gettin' fucked 

They violated my probation 

And it seems I'll be goin' on a long vacation 

Meanwhile, it ain't easy 

No, it ain't easy 

It ain't easy, being me 

Will I see the penitentiary or will I stay free 

It ain't easy, being me 

Will I see the penitentiary or will I stay free 

It ain't easy, being me 

Will I see the penitentiary or will I stay free 

It ain't easy, being me 

Will I see the penitentiary or will I stay free 

It ain't easy, being me 

Will I see the penitentiary or will I stay free 

It ain't easy, being me 

Will I see the penitentiary or will I stay free
