Life Lyrics

[Royce talking]

Come here Royce

[Royce talking over chorus]

Come over here, sit down, let me talk to you

Right here, over here

Sit on daddy's lap

I want to tell you something

[Chorus: Amerie (Royce)]

Life is a moment in space

When the dream is gone, it's a lonelier place

(This is life)

Life is a moment in space

When the dream is gone, it's a lonelier place

[Royce]

Listen, yo

Little Royce Nickel Nine, eyes wide with sight

With a future as bright as the light in the eyes of Christ

Ready to take on the world and whatever is in it

Proof read, sign, and seal whatever you finish

I can only lead you while you're on your quest for knowledge

I'ma teach you to have sense and to respect the dollar

Hope for the best, and you'll see, your world will be solid

I'ma teach you the truth, even behind worldly logic

This is life, cut and dry, days is bright, nights is dark

Fights get sparked, it's almost like to get ahead

You got to be twice as smart, the realities of life is harsh

Just know that God's keeping you level

He'll even speak through the ghetto to reach you

Just to teach you that the streets is the devil

Everybody's dishonest, different

Which means that we're dying by livin'

Oblivious to the time that we're given

So you don't prepare for the death, you live for the life

And live right like, do right by your kids and your wife

Have fun as a child, yo them years is precious

The future brings fear and stresses as the year progresses

You're gonna turn a lot of them down, you're gonna feel rejection

You're gonna tell a lot of lies and you're gonna hear confessions

It's a two way street when you deal in his presence

Only your life can show that everything is real in this message

This is life

[Chorus: Amerie (Royce)]

Life is a moment in space

When the dream is gone, it's a lonelier place

(This is life)

Life is a moment in space

When the dream is gone, it's a lonelier place

[Royce]
Royce Da 5'9 - Life - http://motolyrics.com/royce-da-59/life-lyrics.html
Yo, the whole world is upon you, the pressure is on

And you can probably sum your life up the best when you're gone

Upon the creation of all men, destiny's born

For us to reproduce, so you can keep the legacy goin'

I know you think I'm Superman, but I got weaknesses too

I keep a firm leash on things by believing in you

And after I'm gone I live on breathing through you

And anything I had in this life, I leave it to you

Aim for the sky and fly till you come back down

I had you the baton and you run, till you come back 'round

Let your heart tell your temper, "Put that gun back down!"

Dry your tears up and turn that frown upside-down

It'd be plenty to cry for, think life, not death

You got much more to live for than to die for

But you got to stay humble

Cause just as hard as your work to get it

There's people working harder to take it from you

Cause life, something that people take for granted

As time passes, you're gonna want something back

But you won't get it cause history is made every second

So you crave every lesson and save every blessin'

No matter how you view the world yo, you never will get it

The world will be the world through the eyes of whoever is in it

But things ain't gonna always go right

Look at it like, yo this ain't your day, but this your life, and live

Life

[Chorus: Amerie (Royce)]

Life is a moment in space

When the dream is gone, it's a lonelier place

(This is life)

Life is a moment in space

When the dream is gone, it's a lonelier place

[Amerie]

There will be trials and tribulations

But don't let them, don't let them, don't let them bring you down

I said you better keep going to your destination

After your darkest hour the sun will come around

[Royce talking]

This is life

Yo I don't care, I don't care if this song don't sell one copy

That's not even what it's for

It's for you, my boy

This is life

[Amerie singing in the background]

You gotta keep going on, you gotta keep moving on

Be strong, be strong, be strong

Cause this is life

Royce Da 5'9'' Life
