Rock And A Hard Place Lyrics

Yeah yeah

 It's an everyday stuggle

 Trying to get out

 Trying to get out

 Trying to make it

 Check this out nigga

 What

 

 [Chorus:]

 I'm stuck in between a rock and a hard place

 Bad luck is what resluts from my paper chase

 I keep looking it ain't no dough

 So I don't wanna look no mo what

 [repeat]

 

 I need to get away to another day or place in time

 And find where reality can ease my mind

 And shine on me like the sons of the earth

 For what it's worth my turf is ruff and rugged so I gave birth

 To a dream where cream lies between

 All the dirt and the gravel so I battle to achieve my green

 And still try to move forward at a steady pace

 Cause bad luck is interfering with my paper chase

 So I erase the crime lies and sad cries

 Wit sore eyes and keep mines on the uprise

 But it don't work cause im steady getting jerked

 By my neighborhood up to no good where bad niggas lurk

 The urk me leaving effects that's too negative

 So Ludacris is looking for a better place to live

 And I can't stand it it's really got me buggin

 It's like im in the war and I just keep on tuggin cause i'm

 

 [Chorus]

 

 I try to find a way outta this maze

 It's got me crazed im in a daze

 So many ways to boost into a different phase

 But I can't think I can't do nothing

 You think I'm fronting

 You hear me grunting

 Lord you ain't even saying nuttin

 I need some currency before there's an emergency

 Forget crimes I won't let my mind get the best of me

 It's not gone happen I'm trapped in two worlds

 On one side I see diamonds on the other I see pearls

 It's a whirlwind disaster with two damn sides

 So i'm gone with the wind and come right back with the tide

 Cause I keep my eyes on the skies and my head in the clouds

 And when my mouth is shut up it makes my thoughts get loud

 It's like a crowd in a stadium

 Mils I be craving em

 Money making schemes locked up in my cranium

 Cause I need outta this critical situation

 My mind's in jail I don't know the time that it's facing i'm

 

 [Chorus]

 

 I'm sick of knockin I'm sick of clocking

 I'm sick of droppin in a hole never reaching my goal

 It's got my soul seperated into pieces

 It just increases

 I'm hit wit anger like a cooked tit wit hot greases

 So if you understood my attitude

 Maybe you feel what i'm feeling

 And then it start appealing

 To ya intellect and aspect of dreams and aspirations

 Death by temptations even got my heart basting

 So i'm tracing the line where I can find a better path

 And make it last sit back and laugh before the aftermath

 The tragic flaw is what makes it raw

 So let it fall and i'll get through it even if I have to crawl

 My way, I see the sun and there's no delay

 And i'ma pray cause the lord will make a brighter day

 Or will he keep me in his holding cell

 But enough wit the questions the only story to tell

 is that I'm

 

 [Chorus]
