How It Is lyrics Lyrics

song lyrics How It Is lyrics look into the yes of a madman You can see it in his face, he s a weak and sad man Staring straight ahead, his eyes set like stone With a nine millimeter cocked at your dome No way out, it s too late cause you re already in it So what cha gonna do you ll be dead in a minute Thinking slow will get you nowhere fast A young life terminated with one short blast You live like that, you die like this That s how it is Livin with regret is no way to live That s how it is You re dead too soon if the bullet don t miss That s how it is kid How it is That s what you get for Living like this With a bullet in your head - you re dead, you can t miss Ain t no time for regret when you re body is in a bag Ain t no time to change your mind when your head begins to sag Should ve known better, ain t working for you now Maybe if you d know better you d be here somehow So change your ways before you ways change you With a hole in your head that you can see through You re looking up and you re looking down Shot s are rippin out from all around You re crying out for help but it can t be found The voice of regret is the only sound You play the game and you pay the price For hustlin in the gutter with the motherfuckin street lice You re runnin and gunnin and whatever else goes And you re goin with your crew whichever way the wind blows "cause you got their back and they got yours And you live for yourself and you make your own laws But sooner or later what goes around comes around You wind up dead and buried in hard, cold ground song lyrics
