Going Hard Lyrics - Beautiful Struggle - Talib Kweli

(Hook) 

I got a part to play, we going hard these days 

Fuck the harder way, we doing it the smarter way 

To my god I pray, that's how I start my day 

The bullets start to spray the revolution starts today 

I say the shit these people ain't got the heart to say 

Fuck the harder way, we doing it the smarter way 

To my god I pray, that's how I start my day 

The bullets start to spray the revolution starts today

(1st Verse) 

You say you never scared there's kids in other countries 

Making jerseys, jeans, and sneakers they could never wear 

Parents never there, they're busy building homes they can't afford to buy 

Cars they can't afford to drive 

Working jobs that don't support their life 

You busy screaming gangsta, gangsta all that talk is trife 

You already lost the fight if you don't know the cost of life 

These kids is forced to fight a war they can't outrun 

Ain't got no shoes but got a gun 

Now where the fuck he pulled that out from? 

People ask me how we wearing diamonds 

When there's little kids in Sierra Leone 

Losing arms for crying while they mining 

Probably an orphan who's momma died of AIDS 

He built a coffin working often but he never paid 

Forever slaving in the world that's forever cold 

Becoming the man of the house at 11 years old 

This reality rap, I get inside the mentality that... 

Terrorize you like a cowardly act (c'mon)

(Hook) 

I got a part to play, we going hard these days 

Fuck the harder way, we doing it the smarter way 

To my god I pray, that's how I start my day 

The bullets start to spray the revolution starts today 

I say the shit these people ain't got the heart to say 

Fuck the harder way, we doing it the smarter way 

To my god I pray, that's how I start my day 

The bullets start to spray the revolution starts today 

(2nd Verse) 

I was sold to a sick European by a rich African battlin' 

Middle Passages, I can't go back again 

Battlin' years of denied history, lies and mysteries 

Wives with misty eyes watchin' their husbands be beaten viciously 

Battle in the wilderness of North America 

Run by the river, only stoppin' to pray chased by predators 

Terrorists with etiquette who vote and kill their president 

Their capacity for evil so evident and prevalent 

Ain't no hesitation involved, a nation dissolved 

While we sit back waitin' to evolve 

Those who would trade in their freedom 

For their protection deserve neither 

Not a name, not tradition 

Religion, you learn Jesus 

Turn the other cheek 

Inherit the Earth, just stay meek 

Fuck the way you speak 

Try to run, we chop off your feet 

Fast forward to 2004 we selling 

Yo this ain't what I'm settling for 

I want more, yo 

(Hook) 

I got a part to play, we going hard these days 

Fuck the harder way, we doing it the smarter way 

To my god I pray, that's how I start my day 

The bullets starts to spray the revolution starts today 

I say the shit these people ain't got the heart to say 

Fuck the harder way, we doing it the smarter way 

To my god I pray, that's how I start my day 

The bullets start to spray the revolution starts today
