Has-Lo - Hard Writer lyrics

[Verse 1: Has-Lo] The voice of the never was Could've been the best It moved on when the stars didn't connect (?) Make a label head give me a check Its a bet like a winnner On a pick and spread In the back corners of a neighborhood hall Where you're losing again Kissing an eight with a cue ball Get your loot up (?) A fool in his wealth for some part I move smart The moon arcs The city bleed life The sky bleed fire and ice You've never seen twice I head outside in the night And see the sights Is drowned out by a streetlight Thats the world were on Too cool for things that used to before Its understandable I go to war like a vet with the hammer dude Maya Angelou in this rap sh** (?) Don't get your facts in a twist [Musical break] [Verse 2: Has-Lo] Hard writer Hard time an*lyzer Angeoplast the wrap off the Anheiser Close by a ghost writer for your campfire Snakes pull me under when they can't stand by me Look at me in the eyes I'm pointing Like the figures I'm the reason this life destroyed him Like a poison Life on a limb But then he said "Let me fill you in, you missing a gem" Huh Slick fellow playing the blues All he needs is a horn And better shoes Check the move Chess with the champ Knights make lateral moves to get the grands Here's a layout To all the clues of chaos I was flawed in a**uming I would see a payoff But none of this ain't ours yo Nobody owe you If anything they own you Spit your vocals Disturbed by a call from the mobile "What up baby, gimme a sec, I'm on the way" Click Lifting a hand and give me a shake Let me dip My wife didn't k** me today I love her Slang tusslin' And toss trash Man up and get an edge on your soft raps Fall back like a drug habit In bad habits So tragic (tragic) [Outro] Mic checks Trying to write checks Trying to right wrongs Trying to write songs Trying to do it big Trying to do what it is Trying to do what the kids Trying to teach the kids Trying to reach the kids Trying to reach the ma** Trying to see this cash Trying to knock the gla** Yah
