Life I Know - India Arie |
| [00:25.27] |
I have kept this secret |
| [00:27.07] |
From myself for far too long |
| [00:29.90] |
|
| [00:30.85] |
The truth is I'm confused |
| [00:33.59] |
about where I belong |
| [00:36.68] |
I'm not a mother or a wife |
| [00:39.23] |
And I'm living such a complicated life |
| [00:43.36] |
And this is the life I know |
| [00:46.41] |
|
| [00:51.72] |
My life is full |
| [00:53.60] |
in some of the most important ways |
| [00:57.22] |
the entity in the core |
| [01:00.22] |
at the end of everyday |
| [01:03.42] |
I lock the door turn out the lights |
| [01:05.42] |
|
| [01:06.00] |
And I climb in bed |
| [01:07.49] |
And it's all alright |
| [01:10.23] |
cuz this is the life I know |
| [01:13.42] |
|
| [01:18.22] |
I cut the grass |
| [01:20.09] |
take out the trash |
| [01:21.59] |
and fill the gas |
| [01:24.13] |
In this house |
| [01:26.06] |
I am the mom and the dad |
| [01:29.68] |
What tomorrow brings |
| [01:31.06] |
I do not know |
| [01:32.43] |
yes I know it's unconventional |
| [01:36.98] |
But It's the life I know |
| [01:40.73] |
|
| [01:45.78] |
We all have a secret pain |
| [01:48.65] |
|
| [01:51.65] |
We all have a tender place |
| [01:54.95] |
|
| [01:57.33] |
We were born to learn more |
| [02:00.34] |
and no I'm not meant to live alone |
| [02:03.20] |
and this is the life I know |
| [02:06.70] |
|
| [02:09.19] |
Yes this is the life I know |
| [02:12.93] |
|
| [02:14.81] |
All my friends |
| [02:16.30] |
are having families of their own |
| [02:20.42] |
I'm still waiting for |
| [02:23.10] |
the perfect one to come |
| [02:26.35] |
almost four decades in |
| [02:28.92] |
if I'm blessed then I've got five more to go |
| [02:32.99] |
And this is the Life I know |
| [02:35.74] |
|
| [02:53.13] |
Sometime it hurts like hell |
| [02:55.71] |
but I walk away with a song |
| [02:57.83] |
and a story to tell |
| [02:59.59] |
and this is the life I know |
| [03:03.52] |
|
| [03:05.58] |
Yes this is the life I know |
| [03:08.89] |
|
| [03:11.45] |
And this is the Life I know |
