For making that...

 Hard! Street, ghetto rugged
 Beat that'll make your whole crew say "fuck it"
 Hard! Street, ghetto wild
 Beat that'll make you feel my style
 Hard! Street, ghetto beat
 That I play when I think about out in the street, I got the
 Hard! Street, ghetto style

 (What about the smooth shit?) Yeah, I can do that too
 (What about the groove shit?) Yeah, I can do that too
 But when it comes time to rock the block
 Who got that old mad ghetto type shit stocked and locked?
 Large Pro, for those who don't know which way to go
 Listen to your man's latest show with the (Hard!)
 Street, you know the routine
 On the concrete where the things ain't too clean
 And it only gets rougher, and some will have to suffer
 I was there, and even had to get my share
 But as long as I'm alive I will never forget
 What I had to go through to hit
 That's why I play the

 Hard! Street, ghetto rugged
 Beat that'll make your whole crew say "fuck it"
 Hard! Street, ghetto wild
 Beat that'll make you feel my style
 Hard! Street, ghetto beat
 That I play when I think about out in the street, I got the
 Hard! Street, ghetto style

 You see it's all in my blood so I could never be a dud
 The street mentality, I'll have you like "What?"
 When you walking around, both feet on the ground,
 No lie, about to take a nosedive
 Kid it ain't no joke, you either get gat or go broke
 Or get busy, the way the world turns you get dizzy
 In a spin, so listen to the rhymes I send
 They're only a reflection of the times I've been
 On the street trying to make it on my own alone
 I've grown, and now I'm here to let it be known
 That a wish on a star may be too far-fetched to catch
 Especially when you're trying to stretch
 One dollar to the next on the cement, with mad heads scheming
 But they ain't got a chance, they're dreaming
 And deal with the real with determination in this burning nation
 And listen to the

 Hard! Street, ghetto rugged
 Beat that'll make your whole crew say "fuck it"
 Hard! Street, ghetto wild
 Beat that'll make you feel my style
 Hard! Street, ghetto beat
 That I play when I think about out in the street, I got the
 Hard! Street, ghetto style

 You see, if you can make it on the streets
 You're live enough to make it any place, I've seen many waste
 Mad time and talent, and I just stay silent
 Cause I ain't going out trying to teach a nonviolent
 Community rap, I had to learn
 The streets'll burn any man that is not concerned
 With a plan for the future, someone could just shoot ya
 On any given, that's why I thank God I'm living
 On this here day to relay the message I say about the...

 Hard! (Repeat 8x
