"Life Story" (Story of My Life)

from iLLCANDESCENT by Versis

lyrics

Without a doubt, we all got one
No fairytales, real life could be cumbersome
If you choose to run
That's why I'm unloading
Microphone detonator, over the beats I'm exploding
Yo, give the drummer some
Tho I've been marching to the beat of my own from
Circa '91
Was dealt some crazy cards, poppa was a rolling stone
And a shooting star
Kinda sounds like a meteor, right? shook up my whole globe
Inspired me to go write
And shed a little light on some things that in hindsight
Might kill me softly or make me strong in it's own right
I call it paradox, you call it - [life]



Yo I'm trying to get the glory
So if you just listen
You might could understand
You might just understand this is my - [story]
And I'ma tell it how I wanna




Story of my life, three things for certain
Death, uncertainty, contradiction? certainly
Story of my life, swear she could've been my wife
Wouldn't even think twice, fickleness her only vice
Oh how I wish I was an octopus with a firm grasp
When in the way of harm, I'd detach my arms fast
And escape, get away, but I can't cause I'm weak
And I'm meek, and I'm vexed cause I can't
Move-on to the next just yet


I'm trying to get the glory
So if you just listen
You might could understand
You might just understand this is my - [story]
And I'ma tell it how I wanna



Story of my life: dysfunctional relationships
Keyword is "functional" - life is what you make of it
Story of my life: I try to be the bigger man
Motion for truce and get left with a hanging hand
Yo life's a trip - with a one-way ticket
Full of pain and pleasure
Nonsense daily, empathy for Hellen Keller
And yet life's a treasure
Dig the dirt up off your chest, brush off the rest
Ain't nothing better, you better [dig it]
