《川流熙攘》主題曲:It's Hard Out Here 
《生活不易》是2006年3月5日頒布的78屆奧斯卡最佳電影歌曲的獲獎作品、熱播電影《川流熙攘》(Hustle Flow)的主題曲。歌中用了大量的口語與俚語的說唱,生動形象地勾畫出一個社會底層的小混混的生活環境與心理狀態:他徘徊在第七街區,他看到的是窮人沒飯吃,是爾虞我詐、槍林彈雨;只要你的價錢公道,無論是白人女孩還是黑人女孩,你盡可以左擁右抱;他說,即使知道不對也要繼續他的游戲,就像NBA的球星科比-布萊恩特晚上的籃球比賽那樣全力以赴……
同樣是目前流行的說唱曲風,沒有Nana唱的那首《Lonely》那樣憤世嫉俗;同樣是奧斯卡的影視歌曲,也的確比《斷背山》的情歌更有些嚼頭。人家得獎還是有道理呢,聽聽看?
You know it\'s hard out here for a pimp (you ain\'t knowing)
When he trying to get this money for the rent (you ain\'t knowing)
For the Cadillacs and gas money spent (you ain\'t knowing)
(1) Because a whole lot of bitches talking shit (you ain\'t knowing)
(2) Will have a whole lot of bitches talking shit (you ain\'t knowing)
(Djay)
In my eyes I done seen some crazy things in the streets
Gotta couple hoes working on the changes for me
But I gotta keep my game tight like Kobe on game night
Like taking from a ho don\'t know no better, I know that ain\'t right
Done seen people killed, done seen people deal
Done seen people live in poverty with no meals
It\'s fucked up where I live, but that\'s just how it is
It might be new to you, but it\'s been like this for years
It\'s blood sweat and tears when it come down to this shit
I\'m trying to get rich before I leave up out this bitch
I\'m trying to have things but it\'s hard for a pimp
But I\'m praying and I\'m hoping to God I don\'t slip, yeah
(Chorus)
(Djay)
Man it seems like I\'m ducking dodging bullets everyday
Niggers hating on me cause I got, hoes on the tray
But I gotta stay paid, gotta stay above water
Couldn\'t keep up with my hoes, that\'s when shit got harder
North Memphis where I\'m from, I\'m 7th Street bound
Where niggers all the time end up lost and never found
Man these girls think we prove things, leave a big head
They come hoping every night, they don\'t end up being dead
Wait I got a snow bunny, and a black girl too
You pay the right price and they\'ll both do you
That\'s the way the game goes, gotta keep it strictly pimping
Gotta have my hustle tight, making change off these women, yeah
