Album | Playlist: The Very Best of Run-D.M.C. |
[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! |
