This Is the Way

Lyrics

[Intro: Ivan Moody] This is the way is the way it's supposed to be (Is this the way?) This is the way that I say that it's gonna be (Is this the way?) This is the way is the way it's supposed to be This is the way that I say that it's gonna be (Let's go) [Verse 1: DMX] Y'all niggas heard it through the grapevine (What's that?) Expect I'ma take mine (Yeah) Name of the game is "Get in where you fit in" (What?) Dog, I fit in at the beginning, cats livin' (Woo, oh what?) Jumpin' out the window (Ooh) Where money go, yo, right out the window Where's there's rock and roll, I lock and load Shut 'em down, open up a shop, oh, no [Chorus: Ivan Moody] I'm no angel, I'm no savior, and I've never been a saint Well, I know I'm not the devil, 'cause I still can feel the pain Walk through fire and through brimstone And there were no pearly gates I'll be sure to ask about it, tell me [Post-Chorus: Ivan Moody] Is this the way is the way it's supposed to be? (Is this the way?) This is the way that I say that it's gonna be (Let's go) [Verse 3: DMX] Let me go, nigga, back up off me (Yeah) Dog got the cage, cats walk softly (What, what?) Talk real lightly, scared to bite me (Yeah, yeah) Scared to death to shoot me, scared to fight me (Woo) In the street, niggas just playin' the wrong game Up in the real nigga face saying the wrong thing (Come on) Real shit, this is how a dog get down Hands in the air whenever dog hit town [Chorus: Ivan Moody] I'm no angel, I'm no savior, and I've never been a saint Well, I know I'm not the devil, 'cause I still can feel the pain Walk through fire and through brimstone And there were no pearly gates I'll be sure to ask about it, tell me [Post-Chorus: Ivan Moody] Is this the way is the way it's supposed to be? This is the way that I say that it's gonna be [Guitar Solo] [Chorus: Ivan Moody] I'm no angel, I'm no savior, and I've never been a saint Well, I know I'm not the devil, 'cause I still can feel the pain Walk through fire and through brimstone And there were no pearly gates I'll be sure to ask about it, tell me [Post-Chorus: Ivan Moody] Is this the way is the way it's supposed to be? (Is this the way?) This is the way that I say that it's gonna be
