Sometimes in life
You pay the price
Of what you wanna see
You make your choice
You make your bed
Then lie in it you see
Working more, no playing
Earning less, we gotta take the high
We gotta take the high
To avoid the low
We gotta be grateful
From what's bestowed
But you got designs
On the bigger prize
Work to do, bills to pay, rent to rise
We gotta take the high
We gotta take the high
You park and ride
The 9-5
And pay your dues weekly
Do the grind, put in overtime
Your far from being free
Working more, no playing
Earning less, we gotta take the high
We gotta take the high
To avoid the low
We gotta be grateful
From what's bestowed
But you got designs
On the bigger prize
Work to do, bills to pay, rent to rise
We gotta take the high
We gotta take the high
We gotta take the high
To avoid the low
We gotta be grateful
From what's bestowed
But you got designs
On the bigger prize
Work to do, bills to pay, rent to rise
We gotta take the high
We gotta take the high
We gotta take the high
To avoid the low
We gotta be grateful
From what's bestowed
But you got designs
On the bigger prize
Work to do, bills to pay, rent to rise
We gotta take the high
We gotta take the high
