The Veltz Family - My Life Is Mine lyrics

rate me

I'm gonna do my best to keep the rules as long as I'm here<br />

Not gonna be the one that rains on parades<br />

Don't want to be above and won't allow myself to be beneath my peers<br />

It's not an attitude it's just a job I've got to do to finish my race<br />

<br />

(Refrain)<br />

I've got a name<br />

A birth date in time<br />

While I'm in the game<br />

My life is mine<br />

<br />

I truly hope that we can build together mutually throughout the years<br />

I'll tell you everything I've learned, you can do the same<br />

But if you need me to be less than I am to support your fears<br />

It's nothing personal but now you're detrimental to the end of my days<br />

<br />

(Refrain)<br />

<br />

The second hand is ticking everybody's walking, bitching birth to the grave<br />

Caught up in a spider web living in a social caste<br />

Justifying doing nothing, milking pity, marching in the victim's parade<br />

Blaming time and place instead of running in a race that is ending fast<br />

<br />

(Refrain)<br />

<br />

Teacher, parent, lover, boss, don't expect me to respect you more than me<br />

I can't afford to bet on anybody but myself<br />

I hope you get me 'cause I'd love to hang around but should I make 93<br />

All there's gonna be is me and if I can help it history will tell<br />

<br />

(Refrain)
