A Life Like This

I don’t wanna grow up in a life like this
But people givin' their life for a chance like this
So take a hold of your life, turn your wrongs into right
And you’ll never lose sight of the light you give
I don’t wanna grow up in a life like this
But people givin' their life for a chance like this
So take a hold of your life, turn your wrongs into right
And you’ll never lose sight of the light you give
I don’t wanna receive a call that you locked up or dead
I don’t wanna see you involved in a deal or a lick
I don’t wanna give you a life that you not willin' to live
I just wanna see you strive, I just wanna see you shine like your dad always did
'Cause he lived a horrible life, but he smiled throughout the day
Always trying to hide that he’s goin' through so much pain
He wanna see you graduate, he wanna see you pull a date, he wanna give you a
happy life without you feelin' his pains
Sometimes, you really think that he is insane
But really, he’s only playin', really, he’s always prayin' that you’ll fight
all these demons that are comin' your way
And I hope that you can do it, and I hope that you do it sane
Please, do not go that way 'cause it will dilute ya brain
You know what they say, if it comes from the heart, then I think you’re okay
You didn’t hear it from me, anyways
I don’t wanna grow up in a life like this
But people givin' their life for a chance like this
So take a hold of your life, turn your wrongs into right
And you’ll never lose sight of the light you give
I don’t wanna grow up in a life like this
But people givin' their life for a chance like this
So take a hold of your life, turn your wrongs into right
And you’ll never lose sight of the light you give
Live a life full of change, live a life you know you made just for you
That’s the only way to live a life of truth
That’s the only way to ever find a love for you
But love kind of gets confused
It’s your decision to choose
Just know to focus on the future
Every winner is loser, and I know a couple losers with a wife, and a Porsche
You know why? 'Cause his wife is devoted, and that she’s willin' to pour her
life in everything wit' her
She’s the one who makes a winner
She creates the water, so eventually, he’ll swim up
And that creates the come up
And there ain’t much to sum up
Don’t play with a woman because she’ll mess that little heart up, yeah
I don’t wanna grow up in a life like this
But people givin' their life for a chance like this
So take a hold of your life, turn your wrongs into right
And you’ll never lose sight of the light you give
I don’t wanna grow up in a life like this
But people givin' their life for a chance like this
So take a hold of your life, turn your wrongs into right
And you’ll never lose sight of the light you give
