Way of the World

Young MC

[Verse 1]
Test. Test. One, two. It's the young man puttin' it down
Comin' at ya with the flow and the funky sound
All the problems in the world that I see today
Hittin' each one of us in individual ways
Now you just got home from a hard days work
You need a good nights sleep cause your back got hurt
But the car alarm keeps goin' off again
And the lady upstairs got a new boyfriend
Well if it ain't one thing, damn sure it's another
You can't get sleep underneath your own covers
No matter how you try to keep your personal tight
Like Keith Sweat somethin' somethin' just ain't right
Well take it from me. Ya know you're not alone
Everybody's got a problem that they call their own
And lifes hard timеs can make your head swirl
But remеmber one thing: that's the way of the world

[Chorus]
That's the way of the world, baby
When your man try to take your girl, baby
And when you got the {right commited for your curl?}, baby
That's the way of the world, baby. (That's the way of the world)
That's the way of the world, baby
When your man try to take your girl, baby
And when you got the {right commited for your curl?}, baby
That's the way of the world, baby

[Verse 2]
Listen up close cause I got to give a dose
To the rump shakin' [bumpers?} from coast to coast
It's the way of the world but it don't get me down
Cause everybody's goin' through it you look around
They say,"The grass is greener on the other side."
That's why I seen you takin' that ride
When you hit the other side of the mountain top
You see the problems keep comin' and the pain don't stop
See the beautiful people ain't all that cute
It's just the same ol thing in a DK suit
She got a hellafied body and a nice skin tone
But she ain't that pretty when you get her back home
[Nine?] looks alone cause she's a real fine lover
But some things makeup just can't cover
You soon discover the problems with this girl
But ya gotta say,"It's just the way of the world."

[Chorus]
That's the way of the world, baby
When your man try to take your girl, baby
And when you got the {right commited for your curl?}, baby
That's the way of the world, baby. (That's the way of the world)
That's the way of the world, baby
When your man try to take your girl, baby
And when you got the {right commited for your curl?}, baby
That's the way of the world, baby

[Verse 3]
Record companies try to throw careers off track
Like a bunch of red ants crawlin' down my back
Then they try to cut you off with no severance
And make you say "WEEE!" like Ned Beatty in Deliverance
Don't you understand that there's lives at stake
And things run a lot deeper than the money you make
When I walked in the door I was good as gold
But since you can't work rap I'ma hit the road
No doubt we all got our cross to bear
And on more than one occasion think its just not fair
"Who cares?" Well brother better care for yourself
Because you won't find sympathy up on the shelf
You rely on yourself and you're health [deprived?]
Cause everything you need is found deep inside
Like a rose on a bush it'll start to unfurl
And when you recognize why, that's the way of the world

[Chorus]
That's the way of the world, baby
When your man try to take your girl, baby
And when you got the {right commited for your curl?}, baby
That's the way of the world, baby. (That's the way of the world)
That's the way of the world, baby
When your man try to take your girl, baby
And when you got the {right commited for your curl?}, baby
That's the way of the world, baby. (That's the way of the world)
That's the way of the world, baby
If you eat some bad food it make you hurl, baby
Find a rock when you're lookin' for a pearl, baby
That's the way of the world, baby. (That's the way of the world)
That's the way of the world, baby
When your man try to take your girl, baby
And when you got the {right commited for your curl?}, baby
That's the way of the world, baby. See ya
