Tough Times Don’t Last Tough Ppl Do

I need more, 'cause this really ain't enough
So at times I ask God, "Why is life so rough?"
We just tryna live it up, all my people stay in touch
Although times get hard, we was all built tough
I need more, 'cause this really ain't enough
So at times I ask God, "Why is life so rough?"
We just tryna live it up, all my people stay in touch
Although times get hard, we was all built tough

PB with no jelly, we had to make it through
(Although times get hard we was all built tough)
TV with no cable, we had to make it due
PB with no jelly, we had to make it through
(Although times get hard we was all built tough)
TV with no cable, we had to make it due

In my four-cornered room with my imagination, thinkin'
Take a leap of faith into my fate, I'm hardly sleepin'
I build a plan and follow the steps
Nothin' is guaranteed, so things can always go left
But indeed, we succeed, all the pay we retrieve
But the days we ain't have it was the days that we needed it most
In the neighborhood of lost hopes
Where the people so broke, it's hard to laugh at your jokes
Stomach sounds like earthquakes
Tell me the death and the birthrate
It seems we're killing each other one after another
Yo, I tell you it's hard
Crabs in a bucket got me mentally scarred
I can only show love to the ones that love me
God don't like ugly, I keep it lovely and benevolent
Even in the room with the elephant
Just tryna build on my natural element

I need more, 'cause this really ain't enough
So at times I ask God, "Why is life so rough?"
We just tryna live it up, all my people stay in touch
Although times get hard, we was all built tough
I need more, 'cause this really ain't enough
So at times I ask God, "Why is life so rough?"
We just tryna live it up, all my people stay in touch
Although times get hard, we was all built tough
