Run-d.m.c. - It's Like That Lyrics
[run]Unemployment at a record highPeople coming, people going, people born to dieDont ask me, because I dont know whyBut its like that, and thats the way it is[d.m.c.]People in the world try to make ends meetYou try to ride car, train, bus, or feetI said you got to work hard to want to competeIts like that, and thats the way it isHuh![run & d.m.c. alternate lines for the remainder of the song]Money is the key to end all your woesYour ups and your downs, your highs and your lowsWont you tell me last time that love bought you clothes?Its like that, and thats the way it isBills fly higher every dayWe receive much lower payId rather stay young, go out and playIts like that, and thats the way it isHuh!Wars going on across the seaStreet soldiers killing the elderlyWhat ever happened to unity?Its like that, and that thats the way it isDisillusion is the wordThats used by me when Im not heardI just go through life with my glasses blurredIts like that, and thats the way it isHuh!You can see a lot in this lifespanLike a bum eating out of a garbage canYou notice one time he was your manIts like that (what? ) and thats the way it isYou shouldve gone to school, you couldve learned a tradeBut you laid in bed where the bums have laidNow all the time youre crying that youre underpaidIts like that (what? ) and thats the way it isHuh!One thing I knoe is that life is shortSo listen up homeboy, give this a thoughtThe next time someones teaching why dont you get taught?Its like that (what? ) and thats the way it isIf you really think about it times arent that badThe one that stretches for success will make you gladStop playing start praying, you wont be sadIts like that (what? ) and thats the way it isHuh!When you feel you fail sometimes it hurtsFor a meaning in life is why you searchTake the boys on the train, drive to school on the churchIts like that, and thats the way it isHeres another point in life you should not missDo not be a fool whos prejudiceBecause were all written down on the same listIts like that (what? ) and thats the way it isHuh! (repeat 4x)You know its like that, and thats the way it isBecause its like that, and thats the way it is
