Story Of Me
Song Lyrics
When I was a young boy of maybe three or four
Life was good and nothing less and nothing more.
My Ma loved me and though my dad was barely home,
I see more of him in me now that I have grown.
Used to play in the backyard climbing trees.
Had desires, the fire was wild and free.
Building mud cakes, hot summer, milkshakes.
Oh I was blessed to be me.
And as I grew older, stronger and bolder
Spread my wings and learnt to fly.
Had my own kids and got busy living
With my woman by my side.
It’s been a heck of a road, this car never slowed,
Always driving fast at the limit!
But trust me when I say,
wouldn’t trade a single day of this story…
With me in it.
With the passing seasons I found a million reasons
To get pissed off at the Lord above.
Thought I was a big man, always took a big stand.
Never backed down when push came to shove.
And as I grew older, stronger and bolder
Spread my wings and learnt to fly.
Had my own kids and got busy living
With my woman by my side.
It’s been a heck of a road, this car never slowed,
Always driving fast at the limit!
But trust me when I say,
wouldn’t trade a single day of this story…
With me in it.
Went to church, went to mosque,
Tried to find what I had lost…
Found the truth deep inside.
Blood’s thicker than water,
Life could always be shorter.
Nothing matters when you see the light!
And as I grew older, stronger and bolder
Spread my wings and learnt to fly.
Had my own kids and got busy living
With my woman by my side.
It’s been a heck of a road, this car never slowed,
Always driving fast at the limit!
But trust me when I say,
wouldn’t trade a single day of this story…
With me in it.
