That's The Way I Like It

Yah man This one be fa all dem hatin' people Jah bless! Sometimes I look back, I look back on my life And I reminisce, I reminisce about those times I see so many things, I see the good and bad But most of all the nasty The nasty things you said Ya got everybody talking 'bout me Their phony laugh just kills me You're the reason that they hate me But I'm not gonna let them break me I won't let them kill my spirit This is what I'll do Now this is what I'm gonna do I'm gonna live life my way Cause that's the way I like it I'm gonna live life my way Cause that's the way I like it I'm gonna live life my way Cause that's the way I like it I'm gonna live life my way Cause that's the way I like it Now I realize, I realize sometimes you lose This is what I had to, this is what I had to go through And now here I am, I try to live my life And be the best I can be, all of the time But everyone's opinionated Sometimes not sophisticated People can be complicated All of you who put me down You played me for a clown Now it's time for me I said I'm gon' be there for me It took me a while to realize That real good friends are hard to find Everybody's got something to say But I learned to love them anyway They say misery loves company And life is such a mystery Thank you for my growing pains This is where I am today
