lyrics

THE HARD WAY
Latifah Phillips, Moda Spira Publishing (SESAC)

Everybody learns the hard way, baby
There’s no easy way, no if, buts, or maybes
When you’re paralyzed and your at your end
Grab a hold of me I will understand
Everybody learns the hard way baby

I know you’re fractured, the bones are broken
You have to reset it
You made mistakes, you lost your way
And now you regret it
I know you already know, that it takes time to grow

‘Cause everybody learns the hard way, baby
There’s no easy way, no if, buts, or maybes
When you’re paralyzed and your at your end
Grab a hold of me I will understand
Everybody learns the hard way baby

All I want to do is be here with you
With all your edges on display
All I want to do is be here with you
You’re not alone, no, not today

Even if you try
And you can’t get by, oh
I will be at your side, I’ll be at your side

You’re not alone, no, not today
