JODECI - Life lyrics

rate me

Just like a birdie<br>I just wanna fly free<br>So high, so high<br>And own a piece of land<br>Somewhere, somewhere<br>Off in a country<br>Oh, oh yeah, listen<br>Temperature like a hundred degrees<br>Like I got chains on me<br>Black male and a family of 3<br>Been robbed of my destiny<br>Reckon I'll fly away<br>Cause it's too much for this man<br>Shouldn't 'a gone down this way<br>What happened to my masterplan<br>Cause I can't figure out<br>I could have been a love child<br>Shouldn't 'a gone down this way<br>Tell me, how did I get life<br><br>Chorus:<br><br>Life life<br>Life life<br>Life life<br>Life life<br>(repeat)<br><br>Oh somebody done done me wrong<br>Done me wrong<br>My eyes to the ceiling all night long<br>All night long<br>Time is slippin away from me<br>Away from me<br>And it ain't no tellin when I'll get home<br>Gotta get home, yeah<br>Just about to see the dollar sign<br>That's close to a peace of mind<br>And everything was about to be fine<br>So tell me<br>So how did I get life<br><br>Life life<br>Life life<br>Life life<br>Life life<br>(repeat)<br><br>Everything<br>I hoped for<br>Is gone now<br>Buried in the ground<br>Hopes and dreams<br>And all those things<br>I'll never see, said I'll never see<br>Somebody gave me life<br>Yeah yeah<br>Yes they did<br>Ooooooooooooooooh life<br>(chorus)
