[Verse 1] What it feel like? When the money is low, and you worry 'cause your bill starts stacking up What it feel like? When you gotta raise a kid by yourself 'cause your baby daddy acting up What it feel like? When it's final exams and you cramp 'cause you ain't prepared like you should What it feel like? Then you walk across the stage 'cause you graduated and you know it's all good What it feel like? When you mad at your boss 'cause all day at work he getting on your last nerve What it feel like? Then you finally get promoted with a raise and you get the money you deserve What it feel like? When you up at the plate, full of count, 9-finnin' and you down to run [?] What it feel like? Then you knock it out the park, grand slam, home run, now your team won! [Chorus] Life get's hard sometimes but you know it's gonna be all right Not gonna run and we not givin' up, no, we gonna fight If anybody ask how we are let them know that we all right But when the time comes you gonna shine so bright, let them see your light [Verse 2] What it feel like? When your mom don't believe in you vexed and you always feel left out [?] What it feel like? Went to school, came home, no job and you sittin' here, stressed out What it feel like? Receive the rewards and respect that all your hard work earned What it feel like? Sad but you smiled 'cause you just heard your baby say his first words What it feel like? Three seconds on the clock when you made the final shot and you won the game What it feel like? Stuck, head down, gave up and your luck had began to change What it feel like? When a son and his dads locked up and the mother cries all night What it feel like? When they both come home, not alone no more so it's all right [Chorus] Life get's hard sometimes but you know it's gonna be all right Not gonna run and we not givin' up, no, we gonna fight If anybody ask how we are let them know that we all right But when the time comes you gonna shine so bright, let them see your light [Verse 3] What it feel like? When you work real hard to the point that you feel kinda' burnt out What it feel like? When after everything you've done, it still doesn't really work out What it feel like? When your family is mad at you because you made another bad choice What it feel like? When you tryna' be heard but word, it seems like you got no voice What it feel like? When you wake up, knowing today is gonna be an incredible day! What it feel like? When you know in your heart no matter what, it's gonna be okay What it feel like? When the coach say "Get in the game!" and you finally do get a chance What it feel like? When you finally get the ball and you score and you get to do that dance [Chorus] Life get's hard sometimes but you know it's gonna be all right Not gonna run and we not givin' up, no, we gonna fight If anybody ask how we are let them know that we all right But when the time comes you gonna shine so bright, let them see your light What it feel like? What it feel like? What it feel like? What it feel like? What it feel like?
