Steada Treated,we get tricked Steada kisses, we get kicked It's the hard knock life!! [Jay-Z] From standin on the corners boppin to drivin some of the hottest cars New York has ever seen For droppin some of the hottest verses rap has ever heard From the dope spot, with the smoke Glock fleein the murder scene, you know me well from nightmares of a lonely cell, my only hell But since when y'all niggaz know me to fail? Fuck naw Where all my niggaz with the rubber grips, bust shots And if you with me mom I rub on your tits, and what-not I'm from the school of the hard knocks, we must not let outsiders violate our blocks, and my plot let's stick up the world and split it fifty/fifty, uh-huh Let's take the dough and stay real jiggy, uh-huh And sip the Cris' and get pissy-pissy Flow infinitely like the memory of my nigga Biggie, baby! You know it's hell when I come through The life and times of Shawn Carter nigga Volume 2, y'all niggaz get ready ["Annie" sample] It's the hard knock life, for us It's the hard knock life, for us!! Steada treated, we get tricked Steada kisses, we get kicked It's the hard knock life!! [Jay-Z] I flow for those 'dro'ed out; all my niggaz locked down in the ten by fo', controllin the house We live in hard knocks, we don't take over we borrow blocks Burn em down and you can have it back daddy, I'd rather that I flow for chicks wishin, they ain't have to strip to pay tuition I see you vision mama, I put my money on the longshots All my ballers that's born to clock Now Imma be on top whether I perform or not I went from lukewarm to hot; sleepin on futons and cots to King Size, dream machines, the green fives I've seen pies let the thing between my eyes analyze life's ills Then I put it down type braile I'm tight grill with the phony, rappers y'all might feel we homies I'm like still, y'all don't know me, shit! I'm tight grill when my situation ain't improvin I'm tryin to murder everything movin, feel me?! ["Annie" sample] It's the hard knock life, for us It's the hard knock life, for us!! Steada treated,we get tricked Steada kisses, we get kicked It's the hard knock life, for us It's the hard knock life, for us!! Steada treated , we get tricked Steada kisses, we get kicked It's the hard knock life!! [Jay-Z] I don't KNOW how to sleep, I gotta eat, stay on my toes Gotta a lot of beef, so logically, I prey on my foes Hustling's still inside of me, and as far as progress you'd be hard-pressed, to find another rapper hot as me I gave you prophecy on my first joint, and y'all lamed out Didn't really appreciate it, til the second one came out So I stretched the game out, X'ed your name out Put Jigga on top, and drop albums non-stop for ya, nigguh! ["Annie" sample] It's the hard knock life, for us It's the hard knock life, for us!!

Review about Hard Knock Life (Ghetto Anthem) Shut up about samples. | Reviewer: JES | 6/25/2008 Using samples does not make the song entirely unoriginal in any way. Claiming that is like claiming DJ Shadow's album Endtoducing, is an unoriginal album, and we all sure as hell know that isn't true. So just enjoy a great rap song with a cute little sample that is used rather effectively. Goddamn. Quit Cmplainin | Reviewer: Anonymous | 6/21/2007 Look rap is a creation, just sometimes we gotta take from the past to create the future. It takes plent of talent to produce these songs. That's just the course, what about the lyrics, verses of em and beats it's a whole process. Jay'z' "Hard Knock Life | Reviewer: Vit IIkakshli | 5/6/2007 Sampling may be unoriginal, but the end result sound nothing like the original song from which the sample came. That said, I sure as hell like this rap version better than that cheesy Annie song--Jay-z has taken a childish tune and mad it hip. Class | Reviewer: Bryan | 4/23/2007 Brilliant tune, duno who you are 'Jason Weyandt'(if that is your real name) but you think your cool slaggin jay z, FUCK OFF Rhymin' and Stealin' | Reviewer: Jason Weyandt | 6/25/2006 Just another song where the producers and the artist involved have stolen a theme or chorus. People please, when are we going to mature and take rap / hip hop to the place where it should be -a creation, not a regurgitation. Who can't take a proven hit or theme and mix it up with lyrics. This is like low budget Kareoke and where paying money to here it. A proven hit is already that, a hit. It takes minimal,if any, talent to produce these songs. Actaully all it takes is the money to pay off the copyright. I know I am just a no-name but have you ever tried to wright lyrics for a rap song...its not to hard, but have you ever tried to come up with an Original beat that actually sounded tight, now that is hard as hell! Don't let these rappers steal from the OG artists and sell it back. I know it sounds good! Of course it does, it was already a huge hit!!!
