That's Life

Girl, you're killing me
Yeah, you're out there
Ride or die in the streets
But you're nowhere

I've got a feeling that you're all alone
Burnin' out them lies
Till them lies is gone
And babe don't you say
What you want from me anyway
I'm too caught up in all this bullshit
To go outside and play

Mama told me not to scream till I lost my voice
But I had no choice
So I screamed that shit anyway
We'd ride around downtown just thinking we was kings
But we had a hard time thinking about what we thought that'd really me
And y'all'd say "slow down"
No speed up
Yeah, you ain't nuts
Just a little scared
So don't give up
If you've had enough
It's just tough love
So toughen up now
I've got a hard time taking responsibility
When all these things we do don't turn out like they seem
And I know that you don't care to follow me
Or maybe I just take myself a bit too seriously

Hey now
I don't wanna
Bring you down
Everything's so cold now
I don't wanna
Bring you down
But that's life
That's life
That's life
That's life
That's life


Well I'm twice as tall as I used to be
And these street signs
Don't get to me
It's just red lights in that moonbeams
Cause if it ain't love, well then it ain't free (hey)

They say I'm stubborn and I'm never gonna learn
I just work too hard for things I know I don't deserve
And I know they said it's better when it's done
But this train ain't crash and it could last
Cause I still think we're having fun
Oooh oooh we've got nowhere left to go

You can't run, son, so don't run, son, and if you run, son, well then you're on your own
I'll take it, fake it, break it mama don't you know
That's everything that's great is gonna have to go
And gasoline will burn but it won't turn to gold
I think I'm lucky or maybe I'm just growing old

I've got a hard time taking responsibility
When all these things we do don't turn out like they seem
And I know that you don't care to follow me
Or maybe I just take myself a bit too seriously

Hey now
I don't wanna
Bring you down
Everything's so cold now
I don't wanna
Bring you down
But that's life
That's life
That's life
That's life
That's life

Hey now
I don't wanna
Bring you down
Everything's so cold now
I don't wanna
Bring, you, down
But that's life
