Lyrics

[00:10] Unemployment at a record highs
[00:13] People coming, people going, people born to die
[00:17] Don't ask me, because I don't know why
[00:20] But it's like that, and that's the way it is
[00:25] People in the world tryin to make ends meet
[00:27] You try to ride car, train, bus, or feet
[00:31] I said you got to work hard, you want to compete
[00:35] It's like that, and that's the way it is
[00:39] Huh!
[00:47] Money is the key to end all your woes
[00:50] Your ups, your downs, your highs and your lows
[00:54] Won't you tell me the last time that love bought you clothes?
[00:57] It's like that, and that's the way it is
[01:01] Bills rise higher every day
[01:05] We receive much lower pay
[01:08] I'd rather stay young, go out and play
[01:12] It's like that, and that's the way it is
[01:16] Huh!
[01:24] Wars going on across the sea
[01:27] Street soldiers killing the elderly
[01:31] Whatever happened to unity?
[01:35] It's like that, and that's the way it is
[01:39] Disillusion is the word
[01:42] That's used by me when I'm not heard
[01:46] I just go through life with my glasses blurred
[01:49] It's like that, and that's the way it is
[01:54] Huh!
[02:00] You can see a lot in this lifespan
[02:04] Like a bum eating out of a garbage can
[02:08] You noticed one time he was your man
[02:12] It's like that (what?) and that's the way it is
[02:15] You should have gone to school, you could've learned a trade
[02:19] But you laid in the bed where the bums have laid
[02:23] Now all the time you're crying that you're underpaid
[02:27] It's like that and that's the way it is
[03:08] One thing I know is that life is short
[03:11] So listen up homeboy, give this a thought
[03:15] The next time someone's teaching why don't you get taught?
[03:19] It's like that (what?) and that's the way it is
[03:22] If you really think about it times aren't that bad
[03:26] The one that flexes with successes will make you glad
[03:30] Stop playing start praying, you won't be sad
[03:33] It's like that (what?) and that's the way it is
[03:38] Huh!
[03:40] Check this out
[03:46] You know it's like that, and that's the way it is
[03:50] Because it's like that, and that's the way it is
