It Ain’t Easy - Intellectual

[Verse 1: Kevin Durant]

I cut me, I bleed out, dedication

Hard work, sacrifice, meditation

I meditate upon a goal that I'm trying to reach

Grindin' all day to the top, and I ain't tryna' sleep

Come and get me, come and get me, I'm an animal

Cutting through your brain like I'm motherfuckin' Hannibal

And now I'm grown up, I got a couple dollars on me

Spent a semester in school, I ain't no scholar homie

But who with me? (Who with me?)

Them dudes with me, shoot with me

Pacin' on your ass like Jamaal Tinsley

I'ma lap, uh, twice before he get around

Relaxin' in the seats of this Benz, that's how I get around

I got the money, but that's the root to all evil

I stayed the same, but it's changing all the wrong people

Yeah, uh, and every hater all the same

I'm feelin' like the world is Skip Bayless, and I'm LeBron James

Look, now I got a body full of tattoos

Everybody say that I'm changing, that is not true

Same dude that you met a couple years ago

Talk to the heart, and you can see past the visual

Look, sticking to the game, and I ain't out of bounds

Maryland on my back and I can carry it when I'm out of town

I say, Maryland on my back and yeah, I can carry it when I'm out of town

[Hook: LaTavia Parker]

You think that it's easy, no, no, no

What I go through

You think that it's easy, easy, no, no

What I go through

[Verse 2: LeBron James]

Uh, it ain't easy, on the path I'm on

Put the world on my back, 'cause I'm that strong

Long journey I been on from the very start

No way I die off with this iron heart

No chance to make it out, that's what they said

Well, look at me, I'm here, boss of the spread

From 602, to 747s

I miss you, Grandma Freda, RIP in heaven

Say what you want 'bout me, but leave the family 'lone

I'll call the goons up and have them freshen up your chromes

I love my niggas, and uh, they up in my heart

'Cause they been down with King James from the very start

Single parent, just moms, and dad gone

It's all good, Pops, you made your kid strong

Ain't no way you can stop this kid, nigga

Momma knew I was a star from the baby bib

I had to make it out, no other option

Now ain't a thing in the world, uh, that I ain't coppin'

Yo, ya'll already know what it is, uh

Now let me just spread my wings

While y'all listen to the voice of this hook sing

Get 'em

[Hook: LaTavia Parker]

You think that it's easy, no, no, no

What I go through

You think that it's easy, easy, no, no

What I go through

[Bridge: LeBron James]

Akron, Ohio

330, you know how we do it, baby, uh

[Outro: Logic]

Sometimes we think, sometimes I think

Lucky me, or lucky we?

From something to nothing

But we got it all
