The Way It Is Lyrics - Powerman 5000

Well don't blame me 

Cause it's not my world 

I didn't make the mess you got, 

You get what ya give 

You give what ya get 

And sometimes it's not a lot, 

From Boston to New York 

LA and Tokyo 

People all the same to me, 

They all need to stop 

Take a look at themselves 

And find more than misery, 

Yeah! (Go)

That's the way 

The way it is, 

That's the way, 

The way that we live 

Don't back down 

Don't ever give in, now 

That's the way that it is, 

Now take it or leave it (Hey) 

Change it or beat it(Hey) 

I know just where it's at, 

You can run, you can hide 

But you never realize 

You're living just like a rat, 

The cops and the killers 

Some saints and some sinners 

People that you'll never know, 

Photos 

They oughta make a story 

For death or for glory 

Sometimes you gotta go, 

(Got ta go!) 

(Go) 

That's the way 

The way it is, 

That's the way 

The way that we live 

Don't back down 

Don't ever give in, now 

Thats the way that it is 

That's the way 

The way it is, 

That's the way 

The way that we live, 

Don't back down 

Don't ever give in, now 

That's the way that it is 

(Come on, damn!) 

Check this out, 

You knowing those streets 

Like the back of your hand 

But still there ain't a person 

That could ever understand 

The more that you look 

The less that you've found 

People everywhere but no one's around 

(C'mon) 

That's the way 

The way it is, 

That's the way 

The way that we live, 

Don't back down 

Don't ever give in, now 

That's the way that it is 

That's the way 

The way it is, 

That's the way 

The way that we live 

Don't back down 

Don't ever give in 

That's the way that it is 

(Al-al-alright!) 

That's the way, 

That's the way 

Don't ever give in, now 

That's the way, 

That's the way 

Don't ever give in, now 

That's the way 

Don't back down 

That's the way 

Don't ever give in, now
