Which word in this line from the passage is most likely to be emphasized? It’s had tacks in it, it's had tacks in

Is there anything else other then this information? If not, I'd say tacks.

Well, son, I’ll tell you: Life for me ain’t been no crystal stair. It’s had tacks in it, And splinters, And boards torn up, And places with no carpet on the floor— Bare. But all the time I’se been a-climbin’ on, And reachin’ landin’s, And turnin’ corners, And sometimes goin’ in the dark Where there ain’t been no light. (from Mother to Son by Langston Hughes
