it's like that ^*

• cistak cistak run dmc $arkisi.
  
  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
  
  people in the world tryin to 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
  huh!
  
  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
• üstadların 84 tarihli self-titled albümlerinde yer alır bu süper parça. ayrıca bu albümden çıkan ilk single olarak 83'ün kasım'ında piyasaya sürülmüş, akabinde block party'lerin ve breakdance battle'larının gözdesi olmuştur.
  
  edit: orijinali fazla cıstak cıstak değildir.
• "demek oyle?" anlamina gelen ingilizce laf obegi.
• nedense pek mariah carey tarzı değilmiş gibi görünen ama müziğinin enerjikliğiyle insani hop hop hoplatan güzel, yeni şarkı.
• mariah carey'in the emancipation of mimi albümünden ilk single'ıdır. gene bol zencilidir.
• southern ladies animation group'un 2003 tarihli ^* animasyonu.
• (bkz: iste oyle bir sey)
• şarkının sound'ındaki kaliteden öte mükemmel sözlere sahip parçadır aynı zamanda. bu tarz bir müzikle sistemi eleştiren bu kadar iyi başka bir şarkı daha yapılamaz herhalde.
• es geçilmiş fekat, mariah carey'nin aynı adlı şarkısının klibi, takım elbise-converse-siyah venedik maskesi kombinasyonu ile ortalığı dağıtan wentworth miller namlı ailemizin yakışıklısını dünyaya arz etmiştir. bu klipte maskeli baloyu basan delikanlı filmin devamında (bkz: we belong together), gelin olmuş gitmekte olan mariah'yı mafya babası damattan kaçıracaktır. bu arada sözlerini de yazayım tam olsun:
