Lyrics

Ra, rah New number, new phone New address, new home I just wanna be left alone I can't escape all these thoughts that I keep in my dome See, I never was a people person I was always searchin' for what wasn't worth it Nothing's ever certain in this life on earth We always give a lot to people who just don't deserve it Still, we gotta learn to love one another Not divided by race or a color 'Cause in the end, we're all sisters and brothers And colors can't stop us from loving each other I was born in a world so cold But that's life as we've all been told But is it living when no food is in your kitchen And the only way to get it is when drugs get sold? I wasn't born with a silver spoon Or a house that have five bedrooms I was raised for the Goomisip goons To the rise of the sun and the fall of the moon And this life seems oh-so crazy 16, nearly had my first baby 17, sellin' dope from the house Putting tears in the eyes of the woman that made me And this life seems oh-so crazy This life seems oh-so cold This life may one day break me This life might take my soul (This life, this life) This life seems oh-so crazy (This life, this life) This life seems oh-so crazy And this life seems oh-so crazy This life seems oh-so cold This life may one day break me This life might take my soul (This life, this life) This life seems oh-so crazy (This life, this life) This life seems oh-so crazy No justice, no pace No voice, no speech No point in even tryin' to speak Unless you're showin' ID to them punk police They got us locked in chains, it all seems strange See your brother goes in then he leaves insane Things will never be the same Until he ends the cycle of the system's game A victim's pain in the ghetto Never said much, was a quiet little fellow A son, local, calm and mellow Tattood on his arm was the red, black and yellow Where he wears his pride Deep inside, an intelligent mind just lost in time All he really had was a beat and a rhyme And a mother that did anything to watch him shine This life of mine Ain't the one that I thought it would be Poppin' them bottles and smokin' that weed Things don't always be what they seem This world I see Aint gonna last too long And I must be a fool to really think that I coulda changed it all with a song But still I try (This life, this life, oh-so crazy) And this life seems oh-so crazy This life seems oh-so cold This life may one day break me This life might take my soul (This life, this life) This life seems oh-so crazy (This life, this life) This life seems oh-so crazy And this life seems oh-so crazy And this life seems oh-so cold This life may one day break me This life might take my soul (This life, this life) This life seems oh-so crazy (This life, this life) And this life seems oh-so crazy
