My Life — текст песни (Erykah Badu)

I was standing downtown, downtown
Staring at the pebbles on the ground
Tryin to figure out a way up out of this town
And I know yeah, Im not the only one
So many people out there chase the sun

If youre looking for a free ride, you better run chile
Or you sure wont get too far, oh
Youd better dance a dance
To make the rain come down
If you want to be a star, oh my life

My Life
(Brother you know)
Sho aint been too easy
My life
(Sister you know)
The life I wanna live
My life
(Mama you know)
Youre gonna go through changes
My life
No turnin back
(Im tellin` you no)

Evernow and then I
Wanna to throw my hands up in the sky
Cause one day I know Ill be flyin high
And I know yeah I got to get down
On my knees and pray
Cause in heart I know Ill see that day

When my freedom comes along
Im gonna run chile
Cause I know that Ill go far oh, oh
Cant let nobody kill my soul and bring me down
And they know who they are, oh my life

My Life
(Brother you know)
Sho aint been too easy
My life
(Sister you know)
The life I wanna live
My life
(Mama you know)
Youre gonna go through changes
My life
No turnin back
(Im tellin` you no)

My Life
(Brother you know)
Sho aint been too easy
My life
(Sister you know)
The life I wanna live
My life
(Mama you know)
Youre gonna go through changes
My life
No turnin back
(Im tellin` you no)

No turning back
Yeah oh baby
No turning back
Yeah oh
No turning back
Yeah oh baby
No turning back
Yeah
No turning back...
