What It’s Like
Everlast
We've all seen the man at the liquor store
Beggin' for your change
The hair on his face is dirty
Dreadlocked
And full of mange
He ask the man for what he could spare
With shame in his eyes
Get a job
You f***in' slob's
All he replied
God forbid you ever had to walk
A mile in his shoes
'Cause then you really might know what it's like
To sing the blues
Then you really might know what it's like
What it’s like
What it’s like
Then you really might know what it's like
What it’s like
What it’s like
Then you really might know what it's like
What it’s like
What it’s like
Then you really might know what it's like
Mary got pregnant from a kid named Tom
Who said he was in love
He said don't worry about a thing baby doll
I'm the man you've been dreamin' of
But three months later
He said he won't date her
Or return her call
And she sweared g** d***
If I find that man
I'm cuttin' off his b****
And then she heads for the clinic
And she gets some static
Walkin' through the doors
They call her a killer
And they call her a sinner
And they call her a whore
God forbid you ever had to walk a mile in her shoes
'Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to
choose
Then you really might know what it's like
What it’s like
What it’s like
Then you really might know what it's like
What it’s like
What it’s like
Then you really might know what it's like
What it’s like
What it’s like
Then you really might know what it's like
I've seen a rich man beg
I've seen a good man sin
I've seen a tough man cry
I've seen a loser win
And a sad man grin
I heard an honest man lie
I've seen the good side of bad
And the down side of up
And everything between
I licked the silver spoon
Drank from the golden cup
Smoked the finest green
I stroked the fattest dimes
At least a couple of times
Before I broke their heart
You know where it ends
Yo it usually depends
On where you start
I knew this kid named Max
He used to get fat stacks
Out on the corner with drugs
He liked to hang out late at night
Liked to get sh** faced
And keep pace with thugs
Until late one night
There was a big gun fight
Max lost his head
He pulled out his chrome .45
Talked some sh**
And wound up dead
Now his wife and his kids are caught
In the midst of all of his pain
You know it crumbles that way
At least that's what they say
When you play the game
God forbid you ever had to wake up to hear the news
'Cause then you really might know what it's like to have to
lose
Then you really might know what it's like
What it’s like
What it’s like
Then you really might know what it's like
What it’s like
What it’s like
Then you really might know what it's like
What it’s like
To have to lose
