A Ride Called Life

I was blessed with a gift that some just threw away I was created from the dirt and the clay I have choices like the others around me But only I know what I wanna be So many will get in my way But that doesn't matter if I stay On the path that I chose So long as I don't overdose I'm on a rollercoaster that goes all directions I'm tryna make one lady my selection I wanna make an impact before I die I'm on a ride called life I'm on a rollercoaster that goes all directions I'm tryna make one lady my selection I wanna make an impact before I die I'm on a ride called life When will it end? I don't know Will I be fast? Will I go slow? How will I live? Only one knows On this ride called life, only one knows I always, always had a mind But I never used it right My life before, it was alright Now my future's looking bright I live on a great big planet Sometimes, it's so big to even manage But I got family to help me through my strife So, I'm ready for this game called life I'm on a rollercoaster that goes all directions I'm tryna make one lady my selection I wanna make an impact before I die I'm on a ride called life I'm on a rollercoaster that goes all directions I'm tryna make one lady my selection I wanna make an impact before I die I'm on a ride called life When will it end? I don't know Will I be fast? Will I go slow? How will I live? Only one knows On this ride called life, only one knows Everybody's on a different journey Sometimes it's so hard I ask for mercy But I can't give up, I got to live it up To my expectations gonna live it up (I'm ready) for the challenges that I must face (I'm ready) for the people that I must embrace (I'm ready) for the trials that come with this ride Called life I'm on a rollercoaster that goes all directions I'm tryna make one lady my selection I wanna make an impact before I die I'm on a ride called life I'm on a rollercoaster that goes all directions I'm tryna make one lady my selection Wanna make an impact before I die I'm on a ride called life When will it end?
