Life is So Hard Lyrics[Intro: Eve & Teena Marie]
This song is a dedication to those strugglin' and livin' on
For those who can't see the light, it's comin'
Stay strong, feel me
Ooh
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Yeah, yeah, ooh
Ooh-ooh

[Chorus: Teena Marie & Eve]
Living life is so hard
Every day I pray to God
Tell Him to send me light so I can touch my soul
And always know right from wrong
Living life is so hard
Every day I pray to God
Tell Him to touch my heart so He can ease the pain
Anything to hide the scars (Uh, uh)
[Verse 1: Eve]
Thank you God, I appreciate every blessin'
Happiness to heartaches, take it as a lesson
I learned a lot in this year
Got a profession that keeps me stressin'
Facin' criticism, answerin' questions
And you still keep me happy and healthy
Blessed with a mind to play the cards that life has dealt me
No doubt I struggle
I cry at times, sometimes I wish I could live in a bubble
And it gets hard not to stray to trouble
I'm proud of me, got a family that holds me down
Real friends 'cause the other ones claim they don't know me now
But long as God with me, I'ma be good for sure
He's the one who picks me up when my face is to the floor
Life is crazy, people never cease to amaze me
Stay with stories 'bout how they made me or raised me
And it's funny 'cause everybody seems to be so hungry
Either they want my life or they want my money

[Chorus: Teena Marie]
Living life is so hard
Every day I pray to God
Tell Him to send me light so I can touch my soul
And always know right from wrong
Living life is so hard
Every day I pray to God
Tell Him to touch my heart so He can ease the pain
Anything to hide the scars
[Post-Chorus: Teena Marie & Eve]
How life be so hard? (How can my life be so hard?)
Whatever doesn't kill me makes me strong (Whatever doesn't kill me makes me strong)
Every day I pray to God (Every day I pray)
Whatever doesn't kill me makes me strong (Whatever, whatever, whatever, uh)

[Verse 2: Eve]
Been through a lot, still gotta watch my back 'cause people plot
Closest'll do you dirty just to take away your spot
Some days I feel like I wanna quit
But I prayed too long and dreamed and worked too hard for it
Wouldn't trade my life, none, even a little bit
'Cause it could be worse for real, I could be turnin' tricks
Might bitch and whine, but always just in the back of my mind
I could be livin' on the streets, nothin' to eat without a dime
So I thank God, and I think why, 'cause life's hard
Meet a lot of people, but always I'm puttin' up my guard
'Cause you never know, some people snakes
Some people give a lot, but mostly not, most people take
A lot of smilin', claimin' realness, but most people fake
Still gotta smile, 'cause that's what it takes
Sometimes it's lonely, I feel like people see me, really don't know me
But my best friend is Him and I know He'll hold me

[Chorus: Teena Marie & Eve]
Living life is so hard
Every day I pray to God
Tell Him to send me light so I can touch my soul
And always know right from wrong
Living life is so hard
Every day I pray to God
Tell Him to touch my heart so He can ease the pain
Anything to hide the scars (Uh, uh)
[Verse 3: Eve]
I got a lotta people on my side protectin' me
Dee, Waah, Chivon, and the family
Gotta thank God for them 'cause they keep me right
I also thank Him every day for the love of my life
I thank Him for this gift just to be able to write
And rock crowds that scream my name, able to excite
Thank God for my fans, I love the way they love me
Happy that I'm comfortable, eatin', livin' lovely
I love my life, still there's the pressure and pain
So I make sure that I'm grounded and able to maintain
A lotta people think I'm lucky, travelin' and hangin' out
But if they only knew, I wish I could be hangin' out
I'm bangin' out hits in the studio, I'm livin' low
Makin' plans to last a lifetime, make sure I'm gettin' dough
Huh, come on, just so the people know
Uh, come on, just so the people know

[Chorus: Teena Marie]
Living life is so hard
Every day I pray to God
Tell Him to send me light so I can touch my soul
And always know right from wrong
Living life is so hard
Every day I pray to God
Tell Him to touch my heart so He can ease my pain
Anything to hide the scars
Living life is so hard
Every day I pray to God
Tell Him to send me light so I can touch my soul
And always know right from wrong
Living life is so hard
Every day I pray to God
Tell Him to touch my heart so He can ease the pain
Anything to hide the scars (Ease my pain)
