cut master d.c. - that's life lyrics

well i go by the name of cut master d.c
and i have a rap about reality
so all you people here listen up close
there’s a few things i feel you should know
see life seems strange from the very first day
ya get smacked on your b-tt, bring tears to your face
but you will learn things in life are ridiculous
bugged out, or they’re wack and make no kinds of sense
like a brother telling you he’s a friend for life
and when you turn your back he’s busting out your wife
or like being in the papers all over the world
just cause you changed your s-x from boy to girl
or like losing the race and you’re the only one
or looking for the bright side, there isn’t none
or like rapping to a girl about how she look
just to get access to her back book
or like me being a cut-throat stickup kid
but never doing time for anything i did
robbing banks, stealing cars even stuck up a cop
all about taking everything ya got
and don’t care about anybody else but me
ha ha playing the role was my reality
read about me in the papers and watch me on the news
where i shot a woman in the head for stepping on my shoes
wanted to treat yourself why the h-ll i’m on the streets
cause i beat a murder charge, plead insanity
so i took a year’s vacation and rehabilitation
just so i could k!ll again and give a better explanation
everybody here you heard the facts
now plain and simple tell me, what’s that!

that’s life!
that’s life!

riding on the subway, yo something’s wrong
i can’t hardly breathe, this p-ss ammonia strong
graffiti on the walls, blood on the streets
everybody wears a dress ain’t always a she
this world is outrageous i’m not lying to you
pick up any newspaper, it’s all in the news
today’s headlines inflation’s at its high
now the value of a dollar ain’t even worth a dime
man goes to jail for statutory rape
said he didn’t know 13 was jail-bait
gangster gets arrested for making a bribe
was let go when the witness suddenly died
husband shoots dentist, attempt to k!ll
when found his wife had more than a cavity filled
billions of dollars sent overseas
and people starving every day in our country
i can’t explain it, don’t know he can
it makes you wonder what’s the advantage of being a man
now what i said is no quiz
now y’all just tell me what it is?

that’s life!
that’s life!

that’s life!

imagine being so confused, ’bout to have a relapse
don’t know if you’re going or just came back
nothing’s in focus, whole life’s a blink
working seven days don’t even got time to think
spending cash money like you just don’t care
and even though you work you’re still on welfare
cause you have to pay rent, your child needs clothes
wife wants to dress, you buy her a book on how to sew
cause things are getting rough, bad luck is on the scene
you try to get a loan they say tell it to the marines
call dial-a-prayer and they put you on hold
now your ladder to success has just been sold
i guess it’s unfortunate somewhere along the way
you just been victimized by your own fate
with computers taking over, need a college degree
to even think about competing in society
so you go to school for four straight years
just to be an educated, unemployed engineer
that’s why it’s not just what you know, it’s sometimes who
that will determine whether or not you win or lose
cause it’s a dog eat dog world, it’s all about getting over
and there’s no such thing as a four-leaf clover
you’re looking for luck to get you back on your feet
and the next thing you know you’re out there hustling on the streets
with the pimps and the pushers, con men, all takers
trying to be the world’s number one money maker
and anybody tell ya there’s no real satisfaction
but everybody’s tryna get a piece of the action
spend they last quarter inside a number joint
lose their last dollar shooting dice tryin’ to hit a point
got these people out there everyday
know they can’t win but still play the game

that’s life!
that’s life!

born in the ghetto, no shoes on your feet
only beef that you know is a fight on the street
the baby of the family out of 10 other kids
each one getting blamed for what the other one did
four rooms and love is what kept y’all alive
hardly ’nuff food but [?]
to you saw your father mugged, turned your mother was raped
just five years old, already learned to hate
now starvin’ marvin is your new name
cause your father got into the gambling game
bet the mortgage on a horse called lightning run
murphy’s law called him out, then cripple legs won
can’t count money cause there never was any
but can count basketb-lls cause there always was plenty
neighborhood looks like a tv screen
people k!llin’ one another like it’s a routine
when you finally old enough that you can move away
half your friends in jail, and the other half dead
now you work two jobs seven days a week
but still have to hustle just to make ends meet
go to the store [?] the store for beef
buy yourself a steak and there’s a worm in your meat
everything seems phony, can’t tell good from bad
and even lady luck turns out to be a fad
your woman’s little baby they say is yours maybe
everything seems shady, whole world’s gone crazy
fightin’ on the street and you know you can’t compete
cause if you get k!lled your family suffers the defeat
but you’re stick in the middle getting a job becomes a riddle
despite how much that you may earn it always seems too little
don’t qualify for unemployment, welfare’s not enough
bout to loot your house all the bank’ll say is “tough”
now crime is everywhere, everyone is in despair
your wife of 30 years is having an affair
you simply close the door there’s a bullet (gunshot), hit the floor
a bullet in your head, have no worries anymore!
