Hard Man

I’ve been a bully
And I’ve known a few
Caring can be cruel
But it’s the best that we can do
I hunker down
I dig in
I’m a hard man
I’m a hard man
I take it on the chin
It’s my turn again
Gotta stretch my legs
No pain, no gain
I’m black and blue
I should’ve stayed down
I’m a hard man
I’m a tired man
I’ve been lied to
I never speak the truth
I walk away
I won’t be used
I’m laying low
I got no fight
I’m a hard man
I’m an empty man
