Spent my whole life, yeah
Looking for something
What it was, I'm not really sure
I looked for happiness
But only found sorrow
Then I realized how to unlock that door, yeah, yeah, yeah
So you think you've got it figured out
It don't come easy
Maybe just for fools
Some say life
Is a struggle now
It's a game now
Just gotta know the rules
Gotta know the rules

Loads of people go
Through life thinking
Take what you can and leave the weak behind
Never stop to think
What can you give now
Too afraid to learn what you might find, yeah, yeah, yeah

So you think you've got it figured out
It don't come easy
Maybe just for fools
Some say life
Is a struggle now
It's a game now
Just gotta know the rules
Gotta know the rules

I spent my whole life, yeah
Doing things my way
Doing unto others knowing it's wrong
When's the last time you
Looked in the mirror?
When's the last time you
Liked what you saw, yeah, yeah, yeah

So you think you've got it figured out
It don't come easy
Maybe just for fools
Some say life
Is a struggle now
It's a game now
Just gotta know the rules
Gotta know the rules
