Doing right's so hard it makes me feel low
Like trying to shut my eyes and see no evil
Everywhere I go's the same
Don't know why I can't explain
I'm alright I can't complain
Just shut your mouth and play the game
Shut your mouth and play the game
Buying all this time makes me so weary
Through midnight cellphone eyes I see it clearly
You look so good I love your stuff
Just can't seem to have enough
Like some folks seem to have it rough
They fall behind and can't catch up
Fall behind and can't catch up
It's almost like
We've all been bought or sold
If only life
Were worth its weight in gold
