Obey the rules or pay the cost

There is a line that is drawn

you can not cross it, unless you want to pay the cost

you can not cross it, unless you want to pay the cost

chorus:

why don't you, obey the rules, or pay the cost

obey the rules, or baby stay lost, lost

Life offers you the choice, so decide and move on.

verse:

Been up and down this road , time and time again,

trying to heed the warning, i was giving,

now you, don't want to, take my advice,

but I was where you were once and I closed my eyes, but I realize I was wrong and you need to do like wise.

verse:

Hurts more when you see that there was clues around you,

School is more than just getting your education, you have to avoid being a fool.

Treat others the way you want them to treat you,

and then you will see the benefit of obeying rules.
