Raye Hard Out Here Lyrics

[Intro]
After years and fears and smiling through my tears
All I ask of you is open your ears
'Cause the truth ain't pretty my dear
It's been dark, been hard out

[Verse 1]
Uh
On my way, figured a way, figured a way out
My pen is a gun, pen is a gun, I'm finna spray now
He said I was out, said I was done, look at his face now
Hm, hm, ah, uh, ah, uh
Tell them boys, feeling them boys, meet at the stake house
I been a mess, so I'm in a dress and I got my cakes out
Sleeping on her, sleeping on me, I'm your face now
Hm, no, no, no, no, no
[Verse 2]
What you know about hustling?
As a young girl (Young girl) in the dungeons (Dungeons)
What you know about making amends?
With the devils in your face you must pretend
Uh, ah

[Verse 3]
CR0 I'm from the ends but I'm a actor
Smile in your face all of thе pricks, all of the wankers
I had to chill, smoke it away, managе my anger

[Verse 4]
Ooh, what you know about systems?
About drugged drinks, f*cking nearly dying from addictions
You start to wonder why I'm Christian
Without the Lord, I'd take my life for all the times I've been a victim
Oh, no weapon formed against me shall ever prosper

[Chorus]
Baby, I bounce, baby, I bounce, baby, I bounce back
Baby, I bounce back (Bounce, bounce, bounce back)
Baby, I bounce, baby, I bounce, baby, I bounce back
Hm, no weapon formed against me shall ever prosper
Baby, I bounce, baby, I bounce, baby, I bounce back
Baby, I bounce back (Bounce, bounce, bounce back)
Baby, I bounce, baby, I bounce, baby, I bounce back
No weapon formed against me shall ever
[Verse 5]
All the white men CEOs, f*ck your privilege Get your pink chubby hands of my mouth, f*ck you think this is?
I told my lawyer stand by (War), there is no wrath like a woman scorned
Uh, now I bet you wish

[Verse 6]
Baby, I bounce, baby, I bounce, baby, I bounce back
Devil' s a liar, I am the guy, call me the Conrad
I been too nice, triple the price, pay me the whole bag
These motherf*ckers cheatin' on me, am I a wag? Never again
Top of the day, top of the day, top of the day to you
This LP's full of the shit I'm gonna say to you, ooh
See how I flow when I'm in pain, I'm gonna pray for you
Then I'ma aim for you, and it's a shame for you, shame for you

[Verse 7]
Oh yeah
What you know about violence? I'm on smoke now
Babe, I think it's time to cut the violins
Can't see you, I'm looking at the inside of my eyelids
I'll never stop fighting, all in God's timing

[Bridge]
Timing
And I'm about to have these grown men crying (Cry-, hm, -ing)
You wasn't trying, you was sitting on diamonds (Hm)
You gon' have to see me now, I'm shining, hyped up, blinding
Very f*cking frightening, all these lies, now I see it so clear
See for girls like me from the bottom of the tier
Believe that it's always been hard out here
[Chorus]
Baby, I bounce, baby, I bounce, baby, I bounce back
Baby, I bounce back (Bounce, bounce, bounce back)
Baby, I bounce, baby, I bounce, baby, I bounce back
Hm, No weapon formed against me shall ever prosper
Baby, I bounce, baby, I bounce, baby, I bounce back
Baby, I bounce back (Bounce, bounce, bounce back)
Baby, I bounce, baby, I bounce, baby, I bounce back
No weapon formed against me shall ever prosper
