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
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

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
