Life is full of challenges [x4]

"Life" Verse 1:

It's a cruel cruel world and I'm gettin' by
You say you're a friend but I know it's a lie
I can smell your fear, see it in your eye
Gotta crawl to the top 'cause I don't wanna die

It makes me money
I love chocolate
And that ain't funny
I love chocolate
It brings me power
Yeah!

"Chocolate" Verse 1:

Jack:
I find the cheapest suppliers anywhere
They might use slave labor but I don't care
The profit margin I get on chocolate is sweet
Each quarterly report makes my heart skip a beat

Millicent:

Underscores the importance to appreciate
