Songtexte Live Your Life - XTC Planet

Ma-ya-ee, ma-ya-ha
Ma-ya-oo, ma-ya-ah-ah
Ma-ya-ee, ma-ya-ha
Ma-ya-oo, ma-ya-ah-ah
Ma-ya-ee, ma-ya-ha
Ma-ya-oo, ma-ya-ah-ah
Ma-ya-ee, ma-ya-ha
Ma-ya-oo, ma-ya-ah-ah

You're gonna be a shining star
With fancy cars and fancy clothes
And then you see, you're gonna go far
'Cause everyone knows just who you are, are
So live your life, aye

You're steady chasing the paper
Just live your life, aye
Ain't got no time for the haters
Just live your life, aye
No telling where it'll take ya
Just live your life, aye

'Cause I'm a paper chaser
Just live your life, my life, my life, my life
Just live your life, my life, my life, my life
Just live your life

Never mind what haters say, ignore them till they fade away
Amazing they're ungrateful after all the game I gave away
Safe to say I paved the way for you cats to get paid today
You'd still be wasting days away now had I never saved the day
Consider them my protégé, homage I think they should pay
Instead of being gracious, they violate in a major way
I never been a hater, still I love 'em in a crazy way
Some say they're so jail, you know the crew gets work on labor day

It ain't that black and white, it has an area that's shaded gray
I'm westside anyway, even if I left today and stayed away
Some move away to make a way, not move away 'cause they're afraid
I brought back to the hood, and all you ever did was take away

I pray for patience, but they make me wanna melt their face away
Like I once made them spray, now I can make them put their K's away
Been thuggin' all my life, can't say I don't deserve to take a break
You'd rather see me catch a case and watch my future fade away

You're gonna be a shining star
With fancy cars and fancy clothes
And then you see, you're gonna go far
'Cause everyone knows just who you are, are
So live your life, aye

You're steady chasing the paper
Just live your life, aye
Ain't got no time for the haters
Just live your life, aye
No telling where it'll take ya
Just live your life, aye

'Cause I'm a paper chaser
Just live your life, my life, my life, my life
Just live your life, my life, my life, my life
Just live your life

I'm the opposite of moderate, immaculately polished
With the spirit of a hustler and the swagger of a college kid
Allergic to the counterfeit, partial to the politics
Articulate but still I'll grab a (censored) by the collar quick
Whoever having problems with the record sales just holla, Timm
If that don't work and all else fails just turn around and follow Timm
I got love for the game, but hey, I'm not in love with all of it

Could do without the fame, rappers nowadays are comedy
They're hooting and they're hollering, back and forth with the arguing
Where you from, who you know, what you make and what kinda car you in
It seems as though you've lost sight
Of what's important when depositing
Them checks into your bank account and you up out of poverty
Your values is in disarray, prioritizing horribly
Unhappy with the riches 'cause you're piss-poor morally

Ignoring all prior advice and forewarning
Now we're mighty full of ourselves all of a sudden

You're gonna be a shining star
With fancy cars and fancy clothes
And then you see, you're gonna go far
'Cause everyone knows just who you are, are
So live your life, aye

You're steady chasing the paper
Just live your life, aye
Ain't got no time for the haters
Just live your life, aye
No telling where it'll take ya
Just live your life, aye

'Cause I'm a paper chaser
Just live your life, my life, my life, my life
Just live your life, my life, my life, my life

Now everybody watchin' what I do, come walk in my shoes
And see the way I'm living if you really want to
Got my mind on my money and I'm not going away

So keep on gettin' your paper and keep on climbing
Look in the mirror and keep on shining
Till the game end, till the clock stop
We gonna post up on the top spot
Living the life, the life
Brand new city, got my whole team with me
The life, my life
I do it how I wanna do
I'm living my life, my life

I will never lose
I'm living my life, my life

And I'm not stopping
Ma-ya-ee, ma-ya-ha
Ma-ya-oo, ma-ya-ah-ah
Ma-ya-ee, ma-ya-ha
Ma-ya-oo, ma-ya-ah-ah
Ma-ya-ee, ma-ya-ha
Ma-ya-oo, ma-ya-ah-ah
Ma-ya-ee, ma-ya-ha
Ma-ya-oo, ma-ya-ah-ah

So live your life
