Living My Life

Lyrics

[Verse 1] [Intro] Oooh, oh, oh Hey, yeah Mmm, mmm, no Mmmm [Verse 2] Oh, I'm so happy that I'm living my life I never knew what I went through, but hoped everything'd turn out right I'm remembering the days that I was holding my head down When people came around, I always pretended to smile But I knew deep in my heart That I was slowly falling apart Some days, all I wanted was to hold my mother's hand And hear her say, "Baby, you're gonna make it" Over and over again So I... [Chorus] And I've been living my life for quite some time (Living my life) And I'm so glad I made it this far (Oh) And nothing gonna bring me back down (bring me back down) And nothing gonna turn me around (Turn me around) And I been living my life for quite some time And I'm so glad (so glad) I made it this far And nothing gonna bring me back down And nothing gonna turn me around [Verse 2] Don't want nobody to think it was easy for me It took a while just to get down and too many people just didn't believe I'm remembering the sacrifices that I had to make I would cry myself to sleep and say that it would be okay But I knew that if I prayed That I would be on my way someday Sometimes, all I wanted was to hear my father say He would say, "Baby, you're gonna make it and I don't care what people say" So I... [Chorus] And I've been living my life for quite some time And I'm so glad I made it this far (Yeah) And nothing gonna bring me back down (Bring me back down) And nothing gonna turn me around (Turn me around) And I been living my life for quite some time (Oh) And I'm so glad (so glad) I made it this far And nothing gonna bring me back down And nothing gonna turn me around [Bridge] All I want the world to see Everything that's happened to me I went from goin' out my mind To always on time And I am no longer a fool Since my days are cold without you And I'm so (I'm so) happy (Happy), baby, baby, babe Said, I'm so (I'm so) happy (Happy), baby, baby, babe [Chorus] And I've been living my life for quite some time And I'm so glad I made it this far (So glad) And nothing gonna bring me back down (Nothing) And nothing gonna turn me around And I been living my life for quite some time And I'm so glad I made it this far (Yeah, yeah) And nothing gonna bring me back down (Bring me back down) And nothing gonna turn me around (Turn me around)
