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
