Tough

Tough like the scuff on a pair of old leather boots

Like the blue-collar, red-dirt attitude

Like a .38 made out of brass

Tough like the stuff in your grandpa's glass

Life's gonna do what it does

Sure as the good Lord's up above

I'm cut like a diamond shinin' in the rough, tough, tough

Come on, take a ride with me

Like the 808s beatin' in the trunk in Atlanta, it was tough

It was kinda hard for me

Crawlin' through the mud, I couldn't find love, then we came up

Look at what we are, baby

Standin' through the storm, still shinin' like a diamond in the rough

Still shinin', and that's hard

If you ever lost someone that you love

Through the pain, gotta show 'em, give 'em light

Still family if you're wrong or you're right

No matter, we together

It's not somethin' that you wanna do, it's just somethin' you goin' through

Tough like the scuff on a pair of old leather boots

Like the blue-collar, red-dirt attitude

Like a .38 made out of brass

Tough, like the stuff in your grandpa's glass (grandpa glass)

Life's gonna do what it does (ooh)

Sure as the good Lord's up above

I'm cut like a diamond shinin' in the rough (shine, shine), tough, hard

Tell me how it's hard for you

Like the nickel-wound strings on your good old Gibson guitar

Tell me what it feel like

Like the smoke in the drawl of your "Y'all" and the way you talk slow

Oh yeah, yeah

Like the songs that your mama sang to you

And the way that it makes you tell the truth

If you come from where you come, then you were born tough

Here, say where you come from

It's not what you wanna do, it's what you're gonna do

Now, it's no place to run

If that's what you're gonna do, what am I gonna do? (Tough)

Tough like the scuff on a pair of old leather boots

Like the blue-collar, red-dirt attitude (yeah, yeah)

Like a .38 made out of brass

Tough, like the stuff in your grandpa's glass (grandpa glass)

Life's gonna do what it does (ooh)

Sure as the good Lord's up above

I'm cut like a diamond shinin' in the rough (shine, shine) tough

You wanna come to the Nawf? (Mm-hm)

I'll show you around

That's why I said, "Come take a ride with me"

When?

Whenever, whenever you ready

Call on me, brr

I'll give it back when I get there

Aight, that's a bet
