    [Rap 1:]
  For the first 3 years
  We were on coat fax
  No deals no money
  But everyone had our back
  We know it would happen and that for a fact
  Until then we were just watching Cosby's in the laundry mat
  Scrounging up change for a pizza guy
  No ride to Roscoe's
  We made our own sunrise
  Getting sick off cheetoes
  Skittles and benekos
  Marques yelling cause we eat his last taqeto
  Wishing for a bank account with at least 2 zero's
  Playing ball all day
  Sharing one Gatorade
  No dogs of our own
  So we walked Bear and Jane
  Playing B-B bridges
  Hopping over gates
  Just to go swimming
  Yeah we were bad
  Tryna holla at older women
  Man
  Times where hard
  You know we didn't get to much
  But we always had each other man that was enough
    [Chorus:]
  We been through thick and thin
  But we still here
  No matter what goes down
  We are still friends til the end
  Ups and downs
  Yeah dats a hard-knock life
  Yeah its ride or die
  Cause we are boys for life
    [Rap 2:]
  its getting hard now
  waht are we to do now
  years are passing
  its time to make a moves now
  We got our act together
  faced the bad wheater
  told ourselves its either now or never
  so we grabbed our stuff
  started shopping at lables
  perform demos and did whatever it takes
  damn every label slammed the door in our face
  but we kept our heads up until we found the right place u heard
    [Chorus:]
  We been through thick and thin
  But we still here
  No matter what goes down
  We are still friends til the end
  Ups and downs
  Yeah dats a hard-knock life
  Yeah its ride or die
  Cause we are boys for life u heard
    [Rap 3:]
  We found a home now
  It's on
  We in the game now
  Chris and Max done made this thing crack now
  Now we work with Tom and Polly with Dee Mack now
  Took us a while but we got a name now
  A platinum album with doe up in the bank now
  No more lounging around, we businessmen now
  Epic helped us and put us in the right gear
  Video and radio thanks for the great year
  I'm glad the time it took was a struggle
  So dat when this time came we would be greatful and humble
  We think God for making all this happen for us
  We think all our fans for having love for us
    [Chorus:]
  We been through thick and thin
  But we still here
  No matter what goes down
  We are still friends til the end
  Ups and downs
  Yeah dats a hard-knock life
  Yeah its ride or die
  Cause we are boys for life
    [Hook 3x:]
  I know that your watching over me
  Thank God that you brought the joy to me
  Now that B2K has a story
  I love y'all just like y'all love me
