It's Like That

Unemployment at a record high,
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.
People in the world tryin make ends meet,
You try to ride 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.
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 recieve much lower pay,
I’d rather stay young, go out and play,
It’s like that, and that’s the way it is.
Wars going on across the seas, 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.
