Ooh Ahh (My Life Be Like) [Liquid Beats Remix]
[Intro]
My life be like
Ooh ahh (Yeah)
Ooh-ooh (My life be like) (Yeah)
Ooh ahh, ooh ahh (Yeah)
Ooh-ooh (Yeah)
Ooh ahh (Yeah)
Ooh-ooh (My life be like) (Yeah)
Ooh ahh, ooh ahh (Yeah)
Ooh-ooh (My life be like) (Yeah)
[Chorus]
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 (Yeah)
Sometimes, I fall I slip
My heartfelt desire: be more like You
Tryin' not to quench Your fire with the things I do
[Verse 1: 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
Search for the equations to persuasions I'm used to
Findin' comfort in the zones of closet bones I get loose to
A mountainous fountain, spinnin' and monsoonin'
Grinnin', it's high octane, explosive how I came
Rollin' down the hills 'cause life's a hassle
Encircled by my folly like a moat surround a castle (Yeah)
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
(My life be like)
[Chorus]
It's times like these that make me say (Yeah)
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 (Yeah)
Sometimes, I fall I slip
My heartfelt desire: be more like You
Tryin' not to quench Your fire with the things I do
[Verse 2: Bonafide]
The fear of never fallin' in love
And the tears after losin' the feelin's of what you thought love was
Like the dirt still up under the rug (My life be like)
Bad characteristics covered in Christ's blood
The joy of new birth and the pain of growin' up
The bliss between givin' my all and giving 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 too thin to fend
So to God, I send words of help to win
In grumblin's so deep, letters could never express
So the sound of "ooh ahh" beneath my breath projects
(My life be like)
[Chorus]
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 (Yeah)
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 (Yeah)
Leavin' bread crumbs for when I stray
Rely on sacrifice and the price You paid
Feel me like a fingertip (Yeah)
Sometimes, I fall I slip
My heartfelt desire: be more like You
Tryin' not to quench Your fire with the things I do
[Verse 3: TobyMac]
My life be like
Ooh ahh ooh, dum dum ditty
Here come that boy from the Capitol City
Last up on the Grits, new ditty
But eight bars of the truth will do, uh
I believe there's a bride that's stunnin'
And I believe in the Kingdom Comin'
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...
(My life be like)
[Chorus]
It's times like these that make me say
Lord, if You see me please come my way (Yeah)
Leavin' bread crumbs for when I stray
Rely on sacrifice and the price You paid
Feel me like a fingertip (Yeah)
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 (Yeah)
Leavin' bread crumbs for when I stray
Rely on sacrifice and the price You paid
Feel me like a fingertip (Yeah)
Sometimes, I fall I slip
My heartfelt desire: be more like You
Tryin' not to quench Your fire with the things I do
