Ain't gonna break my spirit Ain't gonna break my stride When you aint got nothin You got nothin to hide Its a long hard struggle Tryin' to live my life Cos you're born with nothing Then you work to die Don't believe it, pa** the buck Hard livin', hard luck Don't wanna be no preacher Don't wanna be no king I'll never rule the roost no I'll never have everything And if the hand I'm given Is gonna grind me down Then I'm aboard the first train And heading outta town Don't believe it, pa** the buck Hard livin', hard f**in luck See its all about livin And how we're not born lucky It's how we choose to lose You see I love misfortune And I cheated on luck But if it's all forgiven Then I dont give a f** Don't believe it, pa** the buck Hard livin', hard f**in luck
