Hi-Rez – It Was Never Easy lyrics

Nobody said it was easy
It's such a shame for us to part
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard
Oh take me back to the start

In middle school
I wanted to be a DJ
Made my first mashup and kept that shit on replay
Wanted to rap, so I got a mic for my bday
Uh, I made some money just by selling shit on ebay
Haha yeah I recorded tracks in my closet
On the USB microphone with a couple socks on it
Put a new track up and got a couple people watching
Now thousands of people anticipate when I drop shit
Asking for feedback
Posting shit on forums
99% of people would see my posts and ignore 'em
Music was my hobby that just started out of boredom
Writing down my feelings and I would just record 'em
I made business cards and kids ripped 'em up
I spent an hour of my time trying to pick 'em up
So if you down on yourself thinking bout giving up
Look at me now man this isn't where I pictured us

(But It's where we're at)
Nobody said it was easy (so keep your head up)
It's such a shame for us to part (thats real, it is)
Nobody said it was easy (I gotts take y'all back)
No one ever said it would be this hard (haha and it goes like this)
Oh take me back to the start

Me and my closest friends
We went our separate ways
I was busy with music
I didn't leave the house for days
Uh I withstood a substantial amount of hate
Suburban white rapper I feel really out of place
Yeah uh I tried hard to keep my head up
Haters knocked me down but I knew I had to get up
Overcoming struggles boy I was constantly fed up
Got my umbrella cause I knew that the rain wouldn't let up
Constantly was told that I need to grow up
Then I did my first show people came and they showed love
No name a year ago in a sense then I've blown up
Girls was embarrassed to be with me so we broke up
Uh but I didn't let it get to me
My biggest fans used to be the ones who messed with me
Gave up on school parents started thinking less of me
Rose above my struggles and now they just a faded memory

Nobody said it was easy (yeah, and thats real talk)
It's such a shame for us to part (haha for real though)
Nobody said it was easy
No one ever said it would be this hard (Its been a journey though)
Oh take me back to the start (uh uh)

And I'm not trying to be cocky
When I say what I'm saying
I just hate seeing people think
That they can't accomplish their goals you feel me
Cause I'm walking, living, breathing proof
Everything I said was the truth
I tried hard to fit in to two
Fuck it you guys get the point
Don't ever give up
Anything is possible
Follow your dreams
Peace
