The Way It Goes

Been grinding for a long time, these dreams are gonna be mine You wanna catch a ride to the top? Man, get in line Nothing's gonna hold me back, and nothing's gonna make me stop Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah I'm sticking to this path that I'm on 'cause it's all I know You're latching on to me like a leach on a host You're falling behind like another misguided ghost, misguided ghost That's the way it goes Sick of the fakes that are holding me back Sick of the weight that I've got on my back You're asking for help, but I see no return I've worked for what I've earned You're just like everyone else You think I'm living the dream Now you're asking for help I've worked for what I've earned Go! Through the blood and the years, I stuck to the task While you stayed back at home and sat on your fucking ass I'm making my moves, I'm not takin' the slack I'm making my moves, and I'm not looking back That's the way it goes Sick of the fakes that are holding me back Sick of the weight that I've got on my back You're asking for help, but I see no return I've worked for what I've earned You're just like everyone else You think I'm living the dream Now you're asking for help I've worked for what I've earned You're falling behind because you won't put in the work To bridge the gap between you and I You say you're working hard, but I know it's all just an act It's a simple fact You want the glory, but you take the back door I see no fruit from your labor I see no sign that you could do anymore Than what you've done already You've fallen short, and that's all your fault That's the way it goes You're just like everyone else Now you're asking for help Sick of the fakes that are holding me back Sick of the weight that I've got on my back You're asking for help, but I see no return I've worked for what I've earned You're just like everyone else You think I'm living the dream Now you're asking for help I've worked for what I've earned Sick of the fakes that are holding me back (Holding me back, holding me back) Sick of the weight that I've got on my back (Got on my back) You're asking for help, but I see no return (I see no return) Now you're asking for help I've worked for what I've earned
