lyrics

Pay the price

Roll up, roll up everybody. Everybody come close. You won’t want to miss this. This’ll be one hell of a show. You build your dreams that’ll make your fall. Another push and then you'll have it all. A few more years, and you'll be free. As pressure builds, it's getting hard to breathe. And every time you think that you have made it, you need one more step and a hell lot of patience. But you tire and fall flat on your face. Well take a big mouthful and remember the taste, because you'll always pay the price. Roll the dice now, pay the price. You came so close. Well what went wrong? If the formula worked, the pain would be gone. But who really cares at the end of the day? The fittest survive while the poor just pray. Now wipe that smile. I know that you are faking. No one's got your back because everyone is taking. To get to the top you had to beat the competition. Now you're the prey, see time is a ticking, because you'll always pay the price. Roll the dice now, pay the price. Oh my god we have another big, big winner. After all this sacrifice, he has the money, he has the life, the prestige and all that goes with it. But what the people really want to know is how do you feel? Was it worth it?
