The Roots - Hard Times lyrics
(with John Legend, feat. Black Thought)
Cold, cold eyes upon me they stare
 People all around me and they're all in fear
 They don't seem to want me but they won't admit
 I must be some kind of creature up here having fits
 From my party house, I'm afraid to come outside
 Although I'm filled with love I'm afraid they'll hurt my pride
 So I play the part I feel they want of me
 And I pull the shades so I won't see them seein me
 Havin hard times in this crazy town
 Havin hard times, there's no love to be found
 [repeat]
 The Roots - Hard Times - http://motolyrics.com/the-roots/hard-times-lyrics.html
 From my party house I feel like meetin others
 Familiar faces, creed and race, a brother
 But to my surprise I find a man corrupt
 Although he be my brother, he wants to hold me up
 Havin' hard times in this crazy town
 Havin' hard times, there's no love to be found
 [repeat]
[rap]
 In this crazy town
 Havin hard times, there's no love to be found
 Havin hard times, in this crazy town
 Havin hard times, there's no love to be found
