Doughboy God – Not Hard Enough Lyrics

Not Hard Enough – Doughboy God Lyrics

You was talkin' big

When the hallway was loud

Now it's bunk bed metal

And a tray on a cart

You had chest for the corner

Not for a locked door

Now you countin' ceiling tiles

At 3:04

Funny how a little space

Make a big man fold

Same tough mouth

But the story get told

I don't say names

I let the paper do that

Your whole run was borrowed

Mine came from the crack

You was talkin' big, now the room talk back

Same loud mouth, but the stripe got slack

Talk all day till the steel comes down

Then that big talk ghost when the guard walks round

You was talkin' big like you ran that block

Now you whisper through the bars and the slot

I don't need to yell, let the record show

Big talk thin out where the hard walls go

You used to front like a problem

Like I should be worried

Now that same mouth real quiet

When the lights get turned low

I heard you write from the cell

Tryin' to sound like a king

But the pen don't make you hard

When the bars do the sing

I been out here movin' smart

You been boxed in slow

All that talk for the crowd

Now it's nowhere to go

You can keep that tough-guy pose

Pressed flat in the lockup

I built from the side door

You got stuck at the door

You was talkin' big, now the room talk back

Same loud mouth, but the stripe got slack

Talk all day till the steel comes down

Then that big talk ghost when the guard walks round

You was talkin' big like you ran that block

Now you whisper through the bars and the slot

I don't need to yell, let the record show

Big talk thin out where the hard walls go

Now I don't need no angle

I don't need no scene

You learn real quick in a cell

What all that bark means

Cold floor, thin blanket

Same four walls every day

And the loudest one in the room

Don't stay loud that way

So keep my name off your breath

Keep my shadow out your mouth

You was big in the free world

Now the free world did you out

I ain't braggin', I'm just sayin'

What the county already knows

Some people get hard for a minute

Then the door lock close
