Lyfe
Lyfe, it can shake ya, it can make ya
It can bring ya to the brink of lyfe
It can shake ya, it can make ya
It can bring ya to the brink
But I'm learning to time myself
Turn it easy over
Put some spice back on the shelf
Like elevator buttons go on and on (like elevator buttons)
Doors that open and shut without a cause
There's something greater than I dare to know
Look at me, pull the thread on this sweater
And watch it go (what does it mean)
Lyfe, it can shake ya, it can make ya
It can bring ya to the brink of lyfe
It can shake ya, it can make ya
It can bring ya to the brink
The struggle (the struggle), hard and deep
What I learn to keep along the way everyday
Little one (little one), I take your hand
And wonder how I'm gonna help ya be a man (be a man)
And how I'll help ya understand (what does it mean)
Lyfe it can shake ya, it could make ya
It can bring ya to the brink of lyfe
It can shake ya, it can make ya
It can bring ya to the brink of lyfe
Two steps forward, one step back
Cover my mouth, choke
And pull down my hat
Into the seamless hope (intro the seamless), of an endless drive
Clinging to the rhythm of a lyfe like stride
Whitewashing down trodden people
They're displayed like a grand masquerade
Making us feel better that we are brave
Like letters that fade into dust
Like harmony, kindness and trust
Wisdom eluding me, wise guys using me
Peace, peace in, peace out
That's right, what's it all about?
Huh? (What does it mean?)
Lyfe, it can shake ya, it can make ya
It can bring ya to the brink of lyfe
It can shake ya, it can make ya
It can bring ya to the bring of lyfe
It can shake ya, it can make ya
It can bring ya to the brink of lyfe
It can shake ya, it can make ya
It can bring ya to the brink of lyfe
Along the way
Every day, lyfe
Along the way (what does it mean)
Everyday
It can bring ya to the brink of lyfe
It can shake ya, it can make ya
It can bring ya to the brink
But I'm learning to time myself
Turn it easy over
Put some spice back on the shelf
Like elevator buttons go on and on (like elevator buttons)
Doors that open and shut without a cause
There's something greater than I dare to know
Look at me, pull the thread on this sweater
And watch it go (what does it mean)
Lyfe, it can shake ya, it can make ya
It can bring ya to the brink of lyfe
It can shake ya, it can make ya
It can bring ya to the brink
The struggle (the struggle), hard and deep
What I learn to keep along the way everyday
Little one (little one), I take your hand
And wonder how I'm gonna help ya be a man (be a man)
And how I'll help ya understand (what does it mean)
Lyfe it can shake ya, it could make ya
It can bring ya to the brink of lyfe
It can shake ya, it can make ya
It can bring ya to the brink of lyfe
Two steps forward, one step back
Cover my mouth, choke
And pull down my hat
Into the seamless hope (intro the seamless), of an endless drive
Clinging to the rhythm of a lyfe like stride

Huh? (What does it mean?)
Lyfe, it can shake ya, it can make ya
It can bring ya to the brink of lyfe
It can shake ya, it can make ya
It can bring ya to the bring of lyfe
It can shake ya, it can make ya
It can bring ya to the brink of lyfe
It can shake ya, it can make ya
It can bring ya to the brink of lyfe
Along the way
Every day, lyfe
Along the way (what does it mean)
Everyday
