This is your life
Live it your own way
This is your life
Live it your own way
I lived part of my life
Being scared of my dreams
Every time someone asked
What I'm shooting for in life
I will hide my true feelings
And when I spoke up to my friends
They made fun of my dreams
So when times got too rough
I would think back on one thing
My mama would say to me
"This is your life
Yeah, you got to
Live it your own way"
Mama would say
"This is your life
You got to
Live it your own way"
Forces of Evil struck back and forth
Throughout my young days
Because I would listen
And care what other people would say
Like a four letter word
I ignored the whole world
And built my own tiny world
With respect
But it took time to relate
What my momma would say
Time after time again, she said
"This is your life
You got to
Live it your own way"
My mama would say
"This is your life
This is your life, you got to
Live it your own way"
It's gotta be that way
This is your life
Live it your own way
Mama used to say
"This is your life
This is your life, you got to live
Live it your own way"
This is your life
You got to
Live it your own way
My mama would say
"This is your life
This is your life girl
Live it your own way"
It's gotta be that way
This is your life
Ooh, you got to live
Live it your own way
This is your life
Gonna live your life, all the best now
Live it your own way
This is your life
