Ordinary Life (Single Version)
the lord knows the struggle and he knows i try
i wont let nothing stop my shine
i know that something better is in store for me
than this ordinary life that i lead
and as i raise my head to the sky
i know sometimes i gotta swallow my pride
lord i know it just wasnt meant to be
this ordinary life that i lead
imagine living on a mountain next door to the sky
overlooking the tgree tops watching the birds fly
view of a lake that will glisten at night when the moon shine
imagine what life that life be like
no more hardship and drama
just comfort and wealth
no colds and flu we all live with inifite health
no reason for tears blood sweat
and everything else that comes with it
we all living with no reason to doubt
back to reality back to an unsaisfied salary
the day to day struggle that my fam suffers badly
and what it seems like it gets a bit better
gradually a casualty will take place
leaving people unhappy man
but still i move forward hoping for better things
and that one day ill live it
instead of imagining my neck tilted up my head
to the clouds my feet on the ground come and talk to me
CHOURUS
THE LORD KNOWS THE STRUGGLE AND HE KNOWS I TRY
I WONT LET NOTHING EVER STOP MY SHINE
I LNOW SOMETHING BETTER IS IN STORE FOR ME
THAN THIS ORDINARY LIFE THAT I LEAD
AND AS I RAISE MY HEAD TO THE SKY
I KNOW SOMETIMES I GOTTA SWALLOW MY PRIDE
LORD I KNOW IT JUST WASNT MEANT TO BE
THIS ORDINARY LIFE THAT I LEAD
BACK TO MY LIFE
BACK TO MY JOB
BACK TO THE SLAVEHOUSE WORKING FROM 9 TO 5
BACK TO REALITY YOU KNOW IT AINT MUSIC
BACK TO THE DRAMAS
THE SAME OLD BULLSHIT
THE SAME OLD CHORES
TAKING TOLLS ON MY WORKING HAND
THE LORD KNOWS I AINT NO FACTORY WORKING MAN
FEEL LIKE MY OLD MAN TRYING TO SUPPORT A FAMILY AND
MAD AT THE WORLD CAUSE THE WORLD DONT UNDERSTAND ME
CAUSE EVERY DAY I HOPE AND I PRAY FOR THE RIGHT CAUSE AND EVEN IF MY LIFE GETS HARDER I GOT GOD
IM FEELING SO MUCH PRESSURE ON MY SHOULDERS IM BRUSHING OFF
ALL THE HATRED IN MY DIRECTION IM ABLE TO CARRY ON YEAH I KNOW I AINT PERFECT
BUT YOU KNOW I GOT TO TRY FOR ALL THE BLOOD SWEAT TEARS MY POP SACRIFICED
MY NECKS TILTED UP MY FACE TO THE CLOUDS MY FEET ON THE GROUND IM TALKING TO YOU LORD
i wont let nothing stop my shine
i know that something better is in store for me
than this ordinary life that i lead
and as i raise my head to the sky
i know sometimes i gotta swallow my pride
lord i know it just wasnt meant to be
this ordinary life that i lead
imagine living on a mountain next door to the sky
overlooking the tgree tops watching the birds fly
view of a lake that will glisten at night when the moon shine
imagine what life that life be like
no more hardship and drama
just comfort and wealth
no colds and flu we all live with inifite health
no reason for tears blood sweat
and everything else that comes with it
we all living with no reason to doubt
back to reality back to an unsaisfied salary
the day to day struggle that my fam suffers badly
and what it seems like it gets a bit better
