We knew your reputation we hoped that things could be different but 
you just proved us wrong and now you're up to your same old tricks I 
guess we learned a lesson that people don't change overnight things will 
work out well with a little hard work it'll be alright 
How could we be so foolish to rush head first, without a thought I guess 
it goes to show if your unprepared you will be caught but now we've 
learned a lesson a lesson which we won't forget with our newfound 
wisdom things'll work out in the end 
This is the way it is not how things should be this is the way it is this is 
reality 
This is the way it is not how things should be this is the way it is this is 
reality 
You seemed so sincere we'd work together it'd be lot's of fun but all 
you saw was money it's not the issue 'til the music's done to you it's 
doing business to us it's doing what we love we'll just do our thing we 
won't give in for a buck 
This is the way it is not how things should be this is the way it is this is 
reality 
This is the way it is not how things should be this is the way it is this is 
reality 
Like a soul attaining heaven we must ascend to greater heights got to 
make a change got to make a change, the time is right now I wish you 
well and thank you for what you've done for me to quote you "Mr. 
Businessman" there's things in life that aren't free 
This is the way it is not how things should be this is the way it is this is 
reality 
This is the way it is not how things should be this is the way it is this is 
Reality
