Either this world slowing down or I'm speeding up
I'm gonna take it as far as I can go
My grandma told me, 'Keep on reaching up'

The great ones always have a long road
Been out here writing my own role
...live by my own code

We ain't known what this world had in store
We just wanted more than what was given
New that something was missing

Forgotten trains and ambitions when we was children

Life ain't happiness, the greatest feeling

Pretending you was anything you wanted to be
The whole world ' what we wanted to see
I'm still home, making rounds, yeah, too hot for them to bring me down

They trapped by society, scared of their own styles
I'm living free, ain't no church in the wild
Still guided by my inner child, sing it


This is the life I choose
This is the life I choose

I go down the road that was made for me
At the end of the day I be happy knowing
This is the life I choose

This is the life I choose
Stay true to yourself, that's the only way
At the end of the day you'll be happy knowing

This is the life you choose

How many years we got left on this earth

No time to waste, now I know what it's worth
The fountain of the youth still quenching my thirst
Nobody never made it, well, I'm gonna be the first

Yeah, I'm gonna be the first
Hundred miles from the ground, pray I don't come down
I could've walked and made a sound, girl, don't make a sound

The eyes tell stories in the silence
Windows to the truth,
will you look inside and find it?

We wanna live righteous but sex, money, drugs, the holy trinity of vices
First got me highest,
the second is the hardest to keep

And the third kept me going through my crisis
Snap back to reality,
on and on, the dreams become challenging

Living in a world where you supposed to trade your soul for a salary
They gonna have to come and snatch it out of me


This is the life I choose
This is the life I choose
I go down the road that was made for me

At the end of the day I be happy knowing
This is the life I choose
This is the life I choose

Stay true to yourself, that's the only way
At the end of the day you'll be happy knowing
This is the life you choose
