"I Choose To Live"

Never thought I’d be alive in a time like this

The country that I come to know and love has gone amiss

Can't seem to figure out the equation, of separation, 


they beguile us wit persuasion, the coins they makin’

Little man became a hustler just to get the bacon

He’s super bright but no father in sight, his soul is aching

Taught to survive, momma provides, but her heart is breaking

The things done to that black queen will leave your spirits shakin’

War is on the rise, we’ve forgotten how to win it

Tears in my sisters eyes, racism is so systemic

Begging mercy from God as we traverse this pandemic,

Them rosey Gucci glasses got all of our eyes tinted

To all the frontline workers who witnessed it all

To the families who suffered loss and had no one to call

I urge you not to quit because this is the time to stand

So if you with me lift your hands

I choose to live, I choose to live, I choose to live, and not die

I choose to live, I never quit, I’mma give it all that I got

I choose to live, I choose to live, I choose to live, and not die

I choose to live, I never quit, I’mma give it all that I got

I know it’s been hard and everybody’s goin’ through

We’ve been sacrificing doing things we thought we’d never do

Working from home, wearing masks, doin’ online school

Shout out to class of 2020 I’m so proud of you

My whole heart goes out to countries who suffer harder

I send up all of my prayers for your sons and your daughters

To my Asian brothers and sisters i extend my heart

Cuz I refuse to let the past keep us torn apart

God damn, what more does it take now

for mankind to see the world as it breakdown

We may be a fallen race, but we in the desperate state now

I’m so sick from eating lies my food won’t stay down

We just gotta pray now, because the politicians wanna play now

Look at your neighbor and say we gotta do better

The only way to conquer is to fight this shit together

Numbers ain’t never lied, they can’t hold us back forever

I choose to live, I choose to live, I choose to live, and not die

I choose to live, I never quit, I’mma give it all that I got

I choose to live, I choose to live, I choose to live, and not die

I choose to live, I never quit, I’mma give it all that I got


I choose to live, I choose to live, I choose to live, and not die

I choose to live, I never quit, I’mma give it all that I got

I choose to live, I choose to live, I choose to live, and not die

I choose to live, I never quit, I’mma give it all that I got

I choose to live

I stay in your arms, we both know what we selected

And our hearts paid the cost, cuz we’re still so disconnected

We grow up in different places

We run in two separate races

Baby I know that It feels like

We’ve been locked up in these cages

I’ve been waiting for you for ages

But now we’re going through stages

They say life ain't no rehearsal

but I don't know how I’m gon’ play this

I stay in your arms, we both know what we selected

And our hearts paid the cost, cuz we’re still so disconnected

I stay in your arms, we both know what we selected

And our hearts paid the cost, cuz we’re still so disconnected

Love me if you’re able

Go ahead and put your cards on the table

She said that she was a keeper

And I hope that she ain’t a cheater

I’m in your arms tonight

I wanna be with you for life

Only live once can’t regret it

But I feel like we disconnected

Trying to remember what we are

There's no turning back, we’ve gone too far

If I had a choice I would still choose our love, but it’s not enough

I stay in your arms, we both know what we selected

And our hearts paid the cost, cuz we’re still so disconnected

I stay in your arms, we both know what we selected

And our hearts paid the cost, cuz we’re still so disconnected

I stay in your arms, we both know what we selected

And our hearts paid the cost, cuz we’re still so disconnected

Broken heart strings

what is these things

that I go through in life

What can it be

maybe it's me

I’m not doing something right

I just want to be peaceful

I just want to be peaceful

I don’t understand what this is

help me, help me, help me with these heart strings

It’s daylight

but it feels like night time

I don't know

feel like I’m losing my mind  

Maybe you can understand my pain

In this rainy season

I gotta light, but it won’t shine

I don’t know
maybe you’re oughta line

It’s all about the seasons

I don’t know
but I feel like I broke my heart strings

Help me, help me, help me with these heart strings

Help me, help me, help me with these heart strings

Feel like I broke my heart strings

My heart strings

As I open up my eyes

I realize that I’m not the girl I used to be

And as I open up my ears

I realize that I don’t hear what I used to hear

And sometimes it all seems so loud

I wish I could turn it all down

And even though I cannot see
 

doesn’t mean I'm in some alternate reality, yes

You’ve got to understand 

that I am human


just like everyone else

Even though I’m blind 

don’t mean I’ve got a super mind


I’m just me I’m myself 

I am only human


And I am only a girl


in this loud loud world

Ribbons, sit on a table

from when I used to run track

I wish I could go 

back 
to those days of innocence

But now that I’m older

it seems like the world

is on my shoulders

You saw those words coming


well maybe you should come in…
to my heart, and listen

Cuz I am only human  (I am only human)


I am only human  (I am only human)

See I try my best like everyone else

I’m no superhero, I’m just myself

And I am only a girl, in this loud loud world

Sometimes it all seems so loud

I wish I could turn it all down

Even though I cannot see

doesn’t mean I’m in some alternate reality

Oh I, I’m only human  (I’m only human)


I, I’m only human  (I’m only human)

I try my best like everyone else, I’m no superhero, I’m (just myself) just myself

And I am only a girl, in this loud loud world

I am only a girl  (I’m only human)

I am only a girl  (I’m only human)

I am only a girl  (I’m only human)

I am only a girl  (I’m only human) 


I’m only human

I don’t give a fuck about the intro

You be playing around with my emotions and my mental

The promises you makin’ they be faker than your dental

No reason to make it complicated when they can be simple

Body to body baby call it worshiping the temple

Call a spade a spade type of guy

But you don’t know if you love me I wonder why  (I wonder why)

Is it because you don’t wanna open your eyes?

Or was i just a snack place stuff your face, now it's goodbye  (goodbye)

wanted to go full throttle, but your heart was cerrado

had me hooked on you like Pablo

I gave you the keys to my soul

it’s like oh s’naps, the brain collapsed

i’m looking at the aftermath of you turning your back

Ohh, You say, baby just please let go  Well ok

You should know that I can’t though  Everyday

You can bet that I’ll make sure  That you stay

With me till the day we go

I wanna rock with you
but it don’t stop with you  - Wit chu baby

See I can leave with you  - to leave ya’, 

you know what I’m saying  - know what I’m sayin’

Baby it’s time to choose  - it’s time to choose, 

but you don’t have loose  - yeah, yeah

You know you wanna be my man  - ah hun

You got me with these Pink flowers on my mind, mind

I’m thinking about you like all the time, time

I’m wondering when you’re gonna get in line, line

I need you in my life, baby I’m not lyin’  - I’m not lyin’

You know you got me with these Pink flowers on my mind

Should’a saw by the way you walked, and the way you talked

that you thought that I was just another one

You could play wit, and then fuck off
Tried to hit me below the belt 

like a player with his cup off

dealing with this heartbreak, I’m in the lake of fire, molotov 



And knew that it could end, but baby  not this way

the way you took your love from me, was  not okay

not tryin’ to keep you in captivity baby  no slave

but chu know I was the best you ever had  don’t play

Forgive me, baby, I be, gettin’ in my feelin’s, way too damn emotional

Trust me, I need, no one. But we, had a, thing, and it was fun though

You was my soldier, polar, opposites, we were, I was, day, and you were night time


But you broke us, just to break away from breakin’ dawn, wasting time

So, tell me, why did you leave our love behind

See i can leave with you - I can leave ya
you know what I’m saying  - know what I’m sayin’

Baby it’s time that you  - ohh ohh
but you don’t have  - ahh, ahh

You know you wanna be my man

You love me with these Pink flowers on my mind, mind, mind  - hey, hey

I’m thinking about you like all the time, time  - ooh, ohh, like all the time

I’m wondering when ya gonna get in line, line  - when you gonna get in line

You know you got me with these Pink flowers on my mind, mind  - on my mind, yeah

I’m wondering when ya gonna get in line, line  - woo, woo, oh woo, yeah

Ya know one day I gonna make you mine, mine  - gonna make you, mine

I need you in my life, baby i’m not lyin’  - I’m, not, lyin’, yeah

Why you fucking with me baby  - classic, classic
