Lyrics Hard Times - DMX Krew

Hard Times

Walking in the dark, it’s A cold night
I get the feeling that the time’s right!
I’m gonna get you girl, I’m gonna get you
You can’t escape me girl, I’ll never let you
Living in the city, it’s a tough break
Everybodys waiting for just one mistake
You’d better watch you back — I’m right behind you
Keep your head down ‘cause the sun and stars will blind you
Everybody’s looking for a second chance
A stolen kiss or a slow dance
Time off for good behaviour
Your life is passing by — I’m gonna save you
Everybody’s dreaming of days in the sun
Forget your fantasies, the night has just begun
Hold me closer baby bneath the covers
W’re only strangers who play at being lovers
Don’t stop 'til you can’t see
Shut your mouth girl, don’t say a word to me
It’s a big deal, you’re afraid to change your mind
Because you feel things are leaving you behind
Well, times change but you never do
You just hold on to your point of view
You must escape our chains girl, you’ve got to break them
So many chances but you never take them
It’s a good night for a slow death
Feel the walls closing in, stop to catch your breath
This isn’t make-believe girl and you’ll never change it
The pattern of your life, it’s so hard to re-arrange it
I choke on hard lines
Everybody knows these are hard times
I feel the pinch but I’m planning something new
Tell me baby, are you planning something too?
