What It's Like (Original Version)

We've all seen the man at the liquor store beggin for your change
The hair on his face is dirty, dread locked and fully maimed
He asked a man for what he could spare with shame in his eyes
"get a job you fucking slobs" all he replied.
God forbid you ever had to walk mile in his shoes

Then you really might know what its like to sing the blues
Then you really might know what its like (what its like) x4

Mary got pregnant from a kid named Tom said he was in love
Said don't worry bout a thing baby doll, I'm the man you've been dreamin of
3 months later he say wont date her or return her calls
And she swear god damn if she find that man she's cutting off his balls
And she heads for the clinic and she gets some static walking through the door
They call her a killer and they call her a sinner and they call her a whore
God forbid you ever had to walk mile in her shoes

Then you really might know what its like to have to choose
Then you really might know what its like (what its like) X4

Seen a rich man beg, seen a good man sin, seen a tough man cry
Seen a loser win and a sad man grin I heard an honest man lie
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 and smoked the finest green
Stroked the fattest dimes at least a couple of times before I broke their hearts
You know where it is yo, it usually depends on where you start.

I knew this kid named max who used to get fat stacks out on the corner with drugs
He liked to hang out late, he liked to get shit faced and keep a pace with thugs
Untill late one night there was a big gun fight and max lost his head
He pulled out his chrome .45 talked some shit and wound up dead
Now his wife and his kids are caught in the midst of all of this pain
You know it crumbles that way, at least that's what they say when he played the game
God forbid you ever had to wake up to hear the news

Then you really might know what its like to have to lose
Then you really might know what its like (what its like)
Then you really might know what its like (what its like)
Then you really might know what its like (what its like)
To have to lose.
