Grits - My Life Be Like

 

My life be like

Ooh Aah (yeah), Ooh Ooh
My life be like (yeah)
Ooh Aah, Ooh Aah (yeah), Ooh Ooh

Ooh Aah (yeah), Ooh Ooh
My life be like (yeah)

Ooh Aah, Ooh Aah (yeah), Ooh Ooh
My life be like

[Chorus (over hook)]
 
It's times like these that make me say
Lord if you see me please come my way


Leavin' bread crumbs for when I stray
Rely on sacrifice and the price you paid


Feel
me like a fingertip


(fa-finger tip, fa-finger tip)

Sometimes I fall I slip


My heartfelt desire be more like you
Tryin' not to quench your fire with the things I do


[Verse One: Coffee]
 
I'm on an island by my lonesome stranded
Low key and stayin' candid
Reflect on all the things I try my hand at


Church for the equations to persuasions I'm used to
Finding comfort in the zones of closet bones I get loose to


A mountainous fontaine
Spinnin' and monsoonin', 

grinnin' it's hign octane
Explosive how I came


Rollin' down hills cause lifes a hastle
Encircled by my folly like a moat surround a castle
Stay afloat, catch a second wind


Thin
Is the air I breathe
Teary eyed nose runnin' 

wipe the snot on my sleeve

I'm callin' on the Savior to be all that I need
Please forgive me my behavior had me lost at light speed


[Chorus (over hook)]
 
It's times like these that make me say
Lord if you see me please come my way


Leavin' bread crumbs for when I stray
Rely on sacrifice and the price you paid


Feel me like a fingertip

(fa-finger tip, fa-finger tip)

Sometimes I fall I slip


My heartfelt desire be more like you
Tryin' not to quench your fire with the things I do

[Verse Two: Bonifide]
 
The fear of never fallin' in love
And the tears after losin' the feelings 

of what you thought love was

Like the dirt still up under the rug 

(My life be like)
Bad characteristics covered in Christs blood


The joy of new birth and the pain of growin' up
The bliss between givin' my all and givin' up


The highs and lows
Paths and roads I chose
In the cold I froze


Tryin' to ease my woes
In this world of sin


Clothes to thin to fend
So to God I send


Words of help to win


In grumblings so deep letters could never express
So the sound of Ooh Aah beneath my breath projects

[Chorus (over hook)]
 
It's times like these that make me say
Lord if you see me please come my way


Leavin' bread crumbs for when I stray
Rely on sacrifice and the price you paid


Feel me like a fingertip

(fa-finger tip, fa-finger tip)

Sometimes I fall I slip


My heartfelt desire be more like you
Tryin' not to quench your fire with the things I do

(Don't be bad)

[Verse Three: TobyMac]
 
My life be like
Ooh Aah Ooh


Dum dum ditty
Here come that boy from the Capital City
Last up on the Grits new ditty
But eight bars or the truth well do 

(uh)

I believe theres a private stunnin
And I believe in the Kindgom Comming


I believe if you seek the truth
You don't need to look far 

cause it's gonna find you

So why oh why do I trip and stumble?


And ooh aah as commitment crumbles?


I can't believe that I'm here again....

[Chorus (over hook)]


My life be like
 
It's times like these that make me say
Lord if you see me please come my way


Leavin' bread crumbs for when I stray
Rely on sacrifice and the price you paid


Feel me like a fingertip

(fa-finger tip, fa-finger tip)

Sometimes I fall I slip


My heartfelt desire be more like you
Tryin' not to quench your fire with the things I do


It's times like these that make me say
Lord if you see me please come my way


Leavin' bread crumbs for when I stray
Rely on sacrifice and the price you paid


Feel me like a fingertip


(fa-finger tip, fa-finger tip)

Sometimes I fall I slip


My heartfelt desire be more like you
Tryin' not to quench your fire with the things I do


[Instrumental]

Fa-finger tip, fa-finger tip
Fa-finger tip, fa-finger tip


My life be like


Fa-finger tip, fa-finger tip
Fa-finger tip, fa-finger tip


Ma-ma-my life be like


Fa-finger tip, fa-finger tip
Fa-finger tip, fa-finger tip


My life be like


Fa-finger tip, fa-finger tip
Fa-finger tip, fa-finger tip


My life be like
