On the way on the way)

To your grave to your grave)

You meet hundreds of people

With thousands of offers

Some ignored Some ignored)

Some excepted

And your forced to rely on the

Promises made of lies you

Choose to follow

Life ain't no gift it's where you stand

Hope and fear goes hand in hand

Win or lose

Play the role that you need to come through

Nothing's free

One day hot one day hot)

Next day out next day out)

And you beg for attention you won't

Ever get in spite your attempts to fake it

Don't you try to fake it

Life ain't no gift it's where you stand

Hope and fear goes hand in hand

Win or lose

Play the role that you need to come through

'Cause life ain't no gift it's where you stand

Hope and fear goes hand in hand

Win or lose

Play the role that you need to come through

Nothing's free

Pay $2 and go straight to heaven

What ever choices the circle is closed

Life ain't no gift it's where

You stand

Hope and fear goes hand in hand

Win or lose

Play the role that you need to come through

'Cause life ain't no gift it's where

You stand

Hope and fear goes hand in hand

Win or lose

Play the role that you need to come through

Nothing's free

Nothing's free
