The Way It Is letra

Didn't I raise my voice
High enough for you
I was running like a fugitive all the time
Risking rejection from my own people yeah
Now that you got what you wanted
You don' t even know my name
It's so funny, we don' t talk anymore
Be good to the people on your
Way up the ladder
'Cause you'll need them on your way down

That's the way it is

Didn't I raise my fists high enough for you
I guess I can't pat myself on the shoulder
For a job well done
Dodging bullets in the streets
I was there
Risking rejection from my own people yeah
Now that you got what you wanted
You don' t even know my name
Remember
Be good to the people on your way
Up the ladder 'cause you'll need
Them on your way down

That's the way it is
