As life begins from troubles within
You gotta crawl before you walk, lose before you win
Take step by step, shot by shot
'Cause if you don't hold your head, you won't get by
Put the negative out, sing the positive in
Thank the Lord for life and he'll forgive your sins
Search deep in your heart for a better way
As you listen to the words we're about to say
Dealing with life can really wreck you!
Dealing with life can really wreck you (If you get it)
What T-O-D about ache and misery
I've been chosen for bad delivery
Too many problems for me to be lucky
And if I keep this pace, I'm bound to die bucking
I wake up in the morning and then I look around
I think about life and wanna lay back down
Then I hear a little voice way inside
Say, "Get your butt out of bed, man, you gotta survive"
When I stop to think about it, I feel like a jerk
'Cause everything I got, I got from hard work
People dealing with guns and dealing with knives
Even dealing with drugs, but never dealing with life
Sometimes I say, "Home, just forget it
Life's too rough and I just ain't with it"
But the little voice says, "When things go wrong
Man, you gotta keep on, keep on" (Keep on, keep on!)

There's a boarded-up shack with twenty-five kids
Moms is a fiend, Pop's doing a bid
They strive to survive, they give the nickels and dimes
Look, I got your back and you got mine
Now in this scene, there's a certain kind of sadness
Certain kind of madness, certain kind of gladness
So prepare your brain for the mental strain
Get the stress off your chest 'fore you go insane
'Cause a mind is a terrible thing to waste
Got to pick up your feet and move with the pace
You got crime, corruption, nuclear destruction
Things are gonna end if we're not abrupt
'Cause we're living in a world that's all so funny
Cut your throat in a minute when you're dealing with money
Dreams washed away, hopes so high
Here today, gone tomorrow, and I'm asking why?
The survey's free, every ten out of nine
And the world is about to lose their mind
Dealing with life (It's just time) can really wreck you!
(I work every morning from nine to five)
Dealing with life can really wreck you (If you get it)
(Life in your heart)
City, city life is the way I live
Many, many take and some will give
Lots of people do what I think is wrong
If you cannot hang, you don't belong
Stepping on your toes, never excuse me's
People never stop just to say please
City, city life really upsets ya
Dealing with it can really wreck ya
Writing on the walls on the bus and train
People gotta know you got a name
People gotta know every time you stand
You're a person, respect you demand
People gotta try, gotta try you out
People gotta see if there is doubt
City, city life really upsets ya
Dealing with it can really wreck ya
Dealing with life can really wreck you!
(You got to say I am)
Dealing with life can really wreck you
(Gotta keep on, gotta be strong
Gotta keep on, gotta be strong)
Dealing with life can really wreck you (If you get it)
Dealing with life can really wreck you (If you get it)
