Lyrics[]
- [Run]
- Unemployment at a record highs
- People coming, people going, people born to die
- Don't ask me, because I don't know why
- But it's like that, and that's the way it is
- [D.M.C.]
- People in the world try to make ends meet
- You travel by car, train, bus, or feet
- I said you got to work hard, you want to compete
- It's like that, and that's the way it is
- Huh!
- [Run & D.M.C. alternate lines for the remainder of the song]
- Money is the key to end all your woes
- Your ups, your downs, your highs and your lows
- Won't you tell me the last time that love bought you clothes?
- It's like that, and that's the way it is
- Bills rise higher every day
- We receive much lower pay
- I'd rather stay young, go out and play
- It's like that, and that's the way it is
- Huh!
- Wars going on across the sea
- Street soldiers killing the elderly
- Whatever happened to unity?
- It's like that, and that's the way it is
- Disillusion is the word
- That's used by me when I'm not heard
- I just go through life with my glasses blurred
- It's like that, and that's the way it is
- Huh!
- You can see a lot in this lifespan
- Like a bum eating out of a garbage can
- You noticed one time he was your man
- It's like that (what?) and that's the way it is
- You should have gone to school, you could've learned a trade
- But you laid in the bed where the bums have laid
- Now all the time you're crying that you're underpaid
- It's like that (what?) and that's the way it is
- Huh!
- One thing I know is that life is short
- So listen up homeboy, give this a thought
- The next time someone's teaching why don't you get taught?
- It's like that (what?) and that's the way it is
- If you really think about it times aren't that bad
- The one that flexes with successes will make you glad
- Stop playing start praying, you won't be sad
- It's like that (what?) and that's the way it is
- Huh!
- When you feel you fail sometimes it hurts
- For a meaning in life is why you search
- Take the bus or the train, drive to school or the church
- It's like that, and that's the way it is
- Here's another point in life you should not miss
- Do not be a fool who's prejudiced
- Because we're all written down on the same list
- It's like that (what?) and that's the way it is
- Huh!
- You know it's like that, and that's the way it is
- Because it's like that, and that's the way it is
- [Repeat these lines til fade]
