Karaoké That's The Way It Is The Adventures of Stevie V

The genesis of a menace
In showed the dollar bill
Adam made an apple
And now a brother will kill his own
Of course without thinkin'
Bodies will waste for the face of fink named Lincoln
Nothin' matters but the dollars and cents
As long as you score you ignore the consequence
Monkey see monkey do what has to be done
As long as money's number one
You ain't tryin' to hear yourself
Lookin' in the mirror after you sell your soul
Your mind becomes really nothing but a transmitter
And money's the remote control
Whoever can show defiance for the money addiction is found
Only in the science fiction book
And the songs that cook temptation that
Keeps our minds on the plantation
That's the way it is no no no no no
Hmm yeah yeah make it that's life
That's the way it is life is what you make it
That's the way it is no no no no no
That's the way it is life is what you make it
Power fame status lifestyle and position
Is everybody's intention
Brother and sister on a scheme
To outdo one another hey yo keep it undercover
'Cos money is the root to evil and can fall downhill
For all suckers to chill
'Cos if you're slinkin' cablin' an' hustlin' to make a fat stack
The trick could make you poor back
Listen to what I'm sayin' let my words get heard
Or get served like a customer word
He's a fiend for the green money motivates
The man last seen holdin' out his hand
Situation incredible as inevitable as time
Sucker sellin' his car for nickel and dime
Ball players misbehavior shavin' points
Never drop the soap in the joint
Searchin' hard to find a community of leaders
Laughin' in a fat two seater
One hand on a beer bottle one foot on the throttle
This is the new role model
Money can change you from a nun to a whore
People gettin' rich off of other's misfortunes
Who gives a damn if a runaway is slayed
Or sold like cattle at an auction
Only some can overcome the odds and take it
'Cos life is what you make it
That's the way it is no no no no no
That's the way it is
That's life life is what you make it
That's the way it is
Oh, yeah you know, uh, uh no no no no no
That's the way it is life is what you make it
That's the way it is no no no no no
That's the way it is
That's the way it is yeah
That's life you know what I'm saying
Catch my drift kick it
This universe is cursed on a mission
Children have to make grown up decisions
It's no fun when no one will listen
No where to run except the television
Life today is what you make it
Whenever obstacles block you gotta fake it
You will know when it's good to GO
Opportunity's knockin' now time to take it
Hey hey, that's the way it is
That's the way it is
Yeah, uh, no no no no no
That's the way it is that's the way it is life is what you make it
That's the way it is no no no no no
That's the way it is life is what you make it
Society isn't and never will be a priority
Read the news and look at all the stories
Homeless people living in cardboard boxes
And yo it's got to stop
If you ain't clockin' the dollars and you claim no status
You're looked upon as the baddest of the bad
And bein' put down because the way
That you're livin' is ill
People have some knowledge of will
And so you know the hand of life I just shake it
'Cos I believe it's what you make it
That's the way it is ain't nothin you can do
About it baby yeah 'cos you
That's the way it is
Life is what you make it
That's the way it is that's the way it is no no no no no
That's the way it is yeah
That's the way it is life is what you make it
That's the way it is
That's the way it is no no no no no
That's the way it is hu, ooh life is what you make it
That's the way it is
That's the way it is no no no no no
That's the way it is that's just the way it is life is what you make it
That's the way it is
It's just the way it is no no no no no
That's the way it is ah yeah life is what you make it
That's the way it is no no no no no
That's the way it it is life is what you make it
That's the way it is
