Lyrics:

Didn' T I Raise My Voice
high Enough For You
i Was Running Like A Fugitive All The Time
risking Rejection From My Own People Yeah
now That You Got What You Wanted
you Don' T Even Know My Name
it' S So Funny, We Don' T Talk Anymore
be Good To The People On Your
way Up The Ladder
cause You' Ll Need Them On Your Way Down

chorus
that' S The Way It Is


didn' T I Raise Fists High Enough For You
i Guess I Can' T Pat Myself On The Shoulder
for A Job Well Done
dodging Bullets In The Streets
i Was There
risking Rejection From My Own People Yeah
now That You Got What You Wanted
you Don' T Even Know My Name
remember
be Good To The People On Your Way
up The Ladder 'cause You' Ll Need
them On Your Way Down


chorus
that' S The Way It Is
