I was standing down down, downtown
Staring at the puddles on the ground
Tryin' to figure out a way up out of this town
And I know yeah, I'm not the only one
So many people out there chase the sun
If you're looking for a free ride, you better run child
'Cause you sure won't get too far, oh oh
You'd better dance a dance to make the rain come down
If you want to be a star, oh my my life
My Life (brother you know)
Sure ain't been too easy
My life (brother you know)
The life I wanna live
My life (mama you know)
You're gonna go through changes
My life
No turnin' back, I'm tellin' you no
Every now and then I
Wanna to throw my hands up in the sky
'Cause one day I know I'll be flyin' high
And I know yeah I got to get down, on my knees and pray
'Cause in my heart I know I'll see that day
When my freedom comes along
I'm gonna run child
'Cause I know that I'll go far oh, oh
Can't let nobody kill my soul and bring me down
And they know who they are, oh my my life
My Life (sister you know)
Sure ain't been too easy
My life (brother you know)
The life I wanna live
My life (mama you know)
You're gonna go through changes
My life, no turnin' back, I'm tellin' you no (no turnin' back yeah)
My Life (sister you know)
Sure ain't been too easy
My life (brother you know)
The life I wanna live

Gonna go through changes (yeah, yeah)
