Comin' from da' city called da' K.A.T.H.mandu, Every where I go, everybody wonder who, Who dis' man on da' radio, Da' One I saw on da' video, Dis' da' man, known as da' naughty, Everywhere I go, I see a lotta' cuties, But I can't get no cutie 'cause I gotta' do my duty, Respectful man, respect to da' beauty, Da' wind iz blowing, so iz da' dust, Fo' dis' nation, I got much much, Not a single person dat' u really can trust, What's da' price to pay, how much it's gonna' cost. It's like bang, bang, another young man, What, can be done in dis' fightin' land, Where, dreams are all made of drifting sand, How, can we stop all dis' n' dat', Chorus: Dis' n' a dat', iz all we say, When we got nuthin' to do, All we die n' some we cry, But dis' iz what we call life It's sad but it iz true, Dat' a **** diez n' a ** does lie, I'm a citizen n' i do cry, 'Cause I gotta' take dis' nation higher den' da' high, aha Some try, some cry, n' others die, Others they jus' want a piece of dat' pie, So I, tell u it's hard to say goodbye, When da' one u love don't move he jus' lie. I don't tell no story, I tell u what I see, If u see da' same things, u'll know what I feel, No one to take da' lead, no one to guide, Tears n' pain iz what we hide, Now a moment of silence fo' da' ones we lost: Chorus: Dis' n' a dat', iz all we say, When we got nuthin' to do, All we die n' some we cry, But dis' iz what we call life Iz dis' what we call life? :: Ya' dis' iz what we call life Is dis' how it's meant to be? :: How I wish not, How I wish not Why iz dis' life so hard? :: Only God knows why Could it be sumthin' different? :: How I wish it wuz' Steal all your happiness :: Every last drop dat' we got Who can unfold dis' tragic case : Who can unfolld dis' tragic case. Dis' n' a dat', iz all we say, :: It's like bang, bang, another young man, When we got nuthin' to do, :: What, can be done in dis' fightin' land, All we die n' some we cry, :: Where, dreams are all made of drifting sand, But dis' iz what we call life :: How, can we stop all dis' n' dat'
