Erykah Badu - My Life

Versuri Erykah Badu - My Life

I was standing downtown, downtown 
Staring at the pebbles on the ground 
Tryin to figure out a way up out of this town 
And I know yeah, I'm not the only one 
So many people out there chase the sun 
 
If you're looking for a free ride, you better run child 
Or you sure won't get too far, oh 
You'd better dance a dance 
To make the rain come down 
If you want to be a star, oh my life 
 
My Life 
(Brother you know) 
Sho ain't been too easy 
My life 
(Sister you know) 
The life I wanna live 
My life 
(Mama you know) 
You're gonna go through changes 
My life 
No turnin back 
(I'm tellin' you no) 
 
Every now and then I 
Want to throw my hands up in the sky 
Cause one day I know I'll be flying high 
And I know yeah I got to get down 
On my knees and pray 
Cause in heart I know I'll see that day 
 
When my freedom comes along 
I'm gonna run child 
Cause I know that I'll go far oh, oh 
Can't let nobody kill my soul and bring me down 
And they know who they are, oh my life 
 
My Life 
(Brother you know) 
Sho ain't been too easy 
My life

The life I wanna live 
My life 
(Mama you know) 
You're gonna go through changes 
My life 
No turnin back 
(I'm tellin' you no)
