Hard Pill to Swallow - Blacklite District

There’s a long road in front of ya

There’s a hard life behind ya

There’s a war been waged inside ya

You got big footsteps to follow

You got a soul that’s barely hollow

And that’s a hard pill to swallow

Hard pill to swallow

Hard pill to swallow

Hard pill to swallow

Hard pill to swallow

When you were younger just a bother

Always felt so scared didn’t know

How to take it but you always dared

And now you try to act like you never cared

Feeling halfway guilty coz my life was spared

It feels like just a curse and I’m always to blame

Shivers down my spine when I say your name

Since I was a kid, you’ve been bigger than fame

I’d like to see the scar that you put in my brain

Early in my life, I was put to the test

I had to make some choices or forget about the rest

And when I speak this fire, you get nothing but the best

Let me tell you something that you better not forget

There’s a long road in front of ya

There’s a hard life behind ya

There’s a war been waged inside ya

You got big footsteps to follow

You got a soul that’s barely hollow

And that’s a hard pill to swallow

Hard pill to swallow

Hard pill to swallow

Hard pill to swallow

Hard pill to swallow

The trauma from your mama

Nearly 20 years old

And father made it harder

With the soul that he sold

You know where they both went

And you’re ready to go

What happened?

How did everything turn so cold?

We can talk talk about it

Til I’m turning blue in the face

I can laugh about it, joke about it

Never the same

I can’t keep pretending

It don’t cause any pain

It’s a neverending cycle

That just can’t be tamed

Early in my life, I was put to the test

I had to make some choices or forget about the rest

And when I speak this fire you get nothing but the best

Let me tell you something that you better not forget

There’s a long road in front of ya

There’s a hard life behind ya

There’s a war been waged inside ya

You got big footsteps to follow

You got a soul that’s barely hollow

And that’s a hard pill to swallow

Hard pill to swallow

Hard pill to swallow

Hard pill to swallow

Hard pill to swallow
