Run D.M.C. - It's Like That |
[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] |
