Way It Goes Lyrics

It seems the story never ends

These cycles turn the hands of times eternal spin

They telling we headed were we once began

The pendulum it's swings to one extreme and then it's back again

Trying to find a masterful position here

Somewhere tween the joy and pain beneath the tears

A young man with thoughts that's well beyond his years

Born into poverty and war and forced to face his fears

And still hear

Searching for the answers in a broken land

So many minds with pathologies

Lack of helping hands

Realizing no crutches come you must inner stand

Sometimes with age comes no wisdom children as elder men

In these days

Searching for the light that never hid his face

Dodging the grave or the prison his only saving grace

Blessed with every daily bread we say our grace

Or take a taste of the curses in all the we partake

Had gratitude for jewels OG was tryna drop

With good intentions gave guidance so we'd survived dark

It's hard to be an angel in a hell storm

The programs on the screens insure we were lead wrong

The lies my teacher taught was all that they was told

So in hell kitchen it's poison boiling on Satan's stove

That mean they limit choices for the broken souls

The pastor told me keep praying that's just way it goes

They told me that's the way it goes

In the land where ya friends become your future foes

They told me that the way it goes

Pray to God that ain't the way it goes

They told that's the way it goes

Never put it past a broad it's money over h***

They told me that the way it goes

Well I guess that just the way it goes

And who am I to question the lesson

That's what the children thinking

They said the doorway to freedom is thru the blunts and drinking

They tell me that the actions speak the loudest and

The deepest weakness lies breathing within the the loudest man

They told me if love her I'm simp and succa

But for new life to be given the children the need the mothers

But f*** her, how it's that

He stared and look confused

It'll make sense when you older nigga stick to rules

A people filled with broken hearts and open wounds

Starving for love but the misery made the hate consume

Just pray for em

They know not what they do

And no thou shall judge not

Til ye walked in these shoes

And every day our deaths is rising in the news

And still so is are light

I guess they see it too

We'll see it through

The victory we hold

Chosen from the beginning

And that's the way it goes

They told me that's the way it goes

In the land where ya friends become your future foes

They told me that the way it goes

Pray to God that ain't the way it goes

They told that's the way it goes

Never put it past a broad it's money over h***

They told me that the way it goes

Well I guess that just the way it goes
