Harder
King Allico Lyrics

Have ever been shown fake love
Have you ever experienced insincere or deceitful affection from someone?

Taken advantage of
Have you been exploited, used, or manipulated for someone else's benefit?

My heart been bruised so many times, it's still bandaged up
My emotions have been hurt repeatedly, and I'm still healing from the damage.

But I refused to be a slave, another man in cuffs
I won't let myself be controlled or oppressed by others like a prisoner in chains.

I almost let it get me down, til I started manning up
I almost let my experiences bring me down, but I decided to become stronger and more resilient.

It just made me go harder harder harder harder harder harder harder harder harder harder
My hardships have motivated me to work harder than ever before and become the best version of myself.

I just thank the Lord cause it made me go harder
I'm grateful for the challenges I've faced because they have helped me grow and improve as a person.

All I ever wanted to do was show love
My intention has always been to demonstrate love and kindness towards others.

Remain loyal, have they back when they was down, you know all of the above
I wanted to be there for others, remain devoted, and support them during tough times.

And I believe when you swore on your kid's lives
I trusted someone who swore upon the lives of their own children.

But you looked me in my eyes and you lied
However, they lied to me and broke my trust.

And that really messed me up
Their betrayal deeply affected me and caused emotional damage.

Vengeance belongs to God so why bother
I acknowledge that seeking revenge is not productive and trust that justice will be served in the hands of a higher power.

Lord I need you Father
I pray for guidance and strength from a higher power.

Please forgive me for my sins
I ask for forgiveness for any wrongdoings I may have committed.

The devil he came knocking
I was tempted by negative influences or distractions.

It was tempting and I almost let him in
I was close to succumbing to those negative influences, but I resisted.

Like why I feel like they playing
I question why others might be treating me unfairly or insincerely.

And I feel like I got the perfect plan and we can make them understand
However, I have a strategy to make them realize the error of their ways and come to a mutual understanding.

Before you judge me, can you please put on my shoes and take a walk
I ask for empathy and understanding from others before they pass judgment on me and my experiences.

They say two wrongs don't make a right
It's commonly said that doing something negative in response to another's negative behavior isn't a solution.

Let's leave it right then
So let's end this cycle of negativity now.

No time to entertain the drama
I don't have time or energy to engage with unnecessary conflicts or arguments.

Ain't got no time to waste no time
I don't have any extra time to spare for meaningless or unproductive activities.

No room for hate to be on my mind
I don't want to hold onto anger or negativity in my thoughts.

I told the Lord my heart inclined
I communicated to a higher power that my heart desires positivity and love.

So I'm all in
I'm completely committed to this path of positivity and love.

But I can't front like back to back it can get crazy
I must admit that sometimes things can get overwhelming or intense.

Thoughts of giving up til I think about my babies
I have considered giving up, but thinking about my children and family motivates me to keep going.

Then I think about my wife and my mama
I also find motivation in thinking about the important women in my life.

And the rest of the fam that's going ham as they rooting for me daily
My family supports and encourages me every day, which gives me strength and motivation.

I swear they rooting for me daily
I am certain that my family is always cheering me on, no matter what.

And that just made me move a lil smarter
Their support has helped me make wiser decisions and be more careful in my actions.

Cause I know before it get easy, it can get a lot harder
I understand that the road ahead may have even greater challenges and obstacles to overcome.

I done came a long way
I've made a lot of progress on my journey so far.

But I can get a lot farther
However, I know that there is still a lot more work to be done and progress to be made.

Oh Heavenly Father
I once again call out to a higher power for guidance and strength.
