That's How It Goes

(album: Therapy - 2023)

I've been picking myself off of the floor
Every damn night I start a war
I got all these problems on my mind
I've been trying hard to survive

This world is cruel
You love then you lose
Until your heart stops

All my life, all my life, all my life
Yeah, I've been told
That's how it, that's how it goes, yeah
You gotta fight on your own
Who needs enemies, friends like these
When I need them they don't call
They all got their reasons, their demons, they don't know
Devil by my side, trying to take my life
Social control

But that's how it goes
That's how it goes
That's how it goes
That's how it goes (Yeah)

Slip and fall, getting back up
Body feeling maxed up, taxed up
Came from the bottom now we up
I remember bottling it up
Now I'm on the high
I just take the hand I'm dealt
Made the best with it (Made the best with it)
Trouble like a routine
I'ma stealth with it (I'ma stealth with it)
I am not the one for counting out
If I hear 'em talking, drown 'em out
Move through the pain like a pill
My spirit's something you can never kill

All my life, all my life, all my life
Yeah, I've been told (Yeah, I've been told)
That's how it, that's how it goes, yeah
You gotta fight on your own (Fight on your own)
Who needs enemies, friends like these
When I need them they don't call
They all got their reasons, their demons, they don't know (They don't know)
Devil by my side, trying to take my life
Social control

But that's how it goes
That's how it goes
That's how it goes
That's how it goes (Yeah)
