Life
Just like a birdie, I just want to fly free (so high, so high)
And own a piece of land, somewhere, somewhere off in a country
Oh, oh, yeah, listen
Hey
Temperature's like a hundred degrees
Like I got chains on me
Black male in a family of three
Been robbed of my destiny
Reckon I'll fly away
'Cause it's too much for the man
Shouldn't have gone down this way
What happened to my master plan?
'Cause I can't figure out
I could have been a loved child (loved child)
Shouldn't have gone down this way
Tell me, how did I get life?
Life, life (whoa, oh-yeah)
Life, life (talk to me)
Life, life, life, life (oh, how did I get life?)
Life, life (tell me)
Life, life (oh, yeah)
Life, life, life, life
Oh, somebody done, done me wrong
Done me wrong (done me wrong)
Now eyes to the ceiling all night long, all night long
Time is slipping away from me (away from me)
And it ain't no telling when I'll get home
I gotta get home, yeah
Just about to see the dollar signs
That close to a piece of mine
Everything was about to be fine
So tell me, so how did I get life?
Life, life, life, life
Life, life, life, life (tell me, I wanna know now how)
Life, life, life, life (you know, you know, you know)
Life, life, life, life
Everything (everything) everything
I hope for (that I hope for)
Is gone now (is gone now)
Buried in the ground (buried in the ground)
Hopes and dreams (my hopes and dreams)
And all those things (and all those things)
I'll never see (I will never, never see)
Said I'll never see (somebody gave me life)
Life, life (yeah, yeah)
Life, life, (yes, they did)
Life, life, life, life
Life, life, life, life
Life, life, life, life (ohh! Life)
Life, life (somebody gave me life)
Life, life
Life, life, life, life (say it again, say it again, yeah)
Life, life, life, life
Life, life, life, life
And own a piece of land, somewhere, somewhere off in a country
Oh, oh, yeah, listen
Hey
Temperature's like a hundred degrees
Like I got chains on me
Black male in a family of three
Been robbed of my destiny
Reckon I'll fly away
'Cause it's too much for the man
