Face the Music - THE SYSTEM

Did me wrong, it’s time for payback

Used your last straw to break this camel’s back

I was criticized, almost suicide

Now I’m back writin' big checks (Gettin' big respect)

When it all comes down

Courage is the crown

I gotta face the crowd

You’ve got to play it loud

Gotta take the heat

Stand your ground

Don’t you look shocked

When you get rocked

You got to face the music

Oh, oh, oh-oh

You can scream and shout

If you’re not too proud

But you got to face the music

When your dime runs out

Serves you right for talking loud

In your face, Mr. Big Mouth

Now it’s your time to find out

Play, you got to play, lay in the bed you make

When it all comes down

Courage is the king

Gotta wear the crown

You’ve got to say it loud

Gotta take the heat

Stand your ground

Don’t you look shocked

When you get rocked

Got to face the music

Oh, oh, oh-oh

You can scream and shout

If you’re not too proud

But you got to face the music

When your dime runs out

Oh, oh-oh

Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh

Oh, oh-oh

Face the music

Oh, oh-oh

Oh, oh-oh, oh-oh

Face the music

Face the music

'Cause this beat is control

Don’t you know, more than one way to go, oh-oh

Judging right from wrong

Weak from strong

Losers and winners

Don’t you look shocked

When you get rocked

Got to face the music

Oh, oh, oh-oh

You can scream and shout

If you’re not too proud

Got to face the music
