Текст Lucky Dube – The Way It Is

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

Chorus:
That’s the way it is

Didn’t I raise my 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
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
