Ollie - Life Goes On lyrics

Life goes on, life goes on
A new day rises with the sun
Been holding back, for too long
Now these wings going take me home
An' I know every little thing's okay
Cause it's better that we go through change
Life goes on, life goes on
While I'm just here waiting

Never thought I'd be 26 an' rapping
Took a walk around my
Neighbourhood heard children laughing
Finally understand how ignorance is bliss
Think what I'd give to go back an
Relieve these memories that continue flashing
Inside my mind
Best friend lived next door to me
Wasn't hard to find
We were the hero's in our fantasies
Knights who armour shined
Always there to save the day


But now I'd probably save the time
I guess growing up has different stages
Swear I'm always learning
I lay my head down in the
Grass can feel the planet turning
I'm watching clouds in the sky
It's beautiful mid July
Makes me forget about my bills an
Worries of what I'm yearly earning
Damn it's sad what life makes us become
Started off as innocent but
Eventually we succumb
To the pressures of this world no
Escaping I tried to run
Though I'm thankful for this music
Cause it saved me
Yeah now my gardens is full of blue jays
These new days
I'm over living inside a suitcase
Focused on my family in more than
Just one or two ways a true phase
Hero of my city like I'm Luke Cage
Saying dear patience I hope you listening
Was saved by Christ at 7
Today I became a Christian by my own choice
Time make you really think what you want
Now I finally see exactly what was missing
Power inside submission
The most important term they call faith
I'm tryna lead a life of
Legacy known for my grace
I've done it all while reaching for
This dream that I chase
Finally letting go of fear I've
Only known to embrace but no more, no more
I might of lost some battles but
I'm focused on the war
Yeah I'm sure, I'm sure
That I'll be alright

Life goes on, life goes on
A new day rises with the sun
Been holding back, for too long
Now these wings going take me home
An' I know every little thing's okay
Cause it's better that we go through change
Life goes on, life goes on
While I'm just here waiting

My perception gets shattered the
More I've grown
Thinking everybody's grass is greener
Than what I own
While I'm wearing dirty laundry that's
Covered up with cologne
Like I know my father love me
Just different the way it's shown
Things not what they seem
Check your Instagram app life's a rat race
Desiring the things we don't have
Take a moment look around deep breaths relax
It's a spectacular now time
You'll never get back
A hypocrite the way I write
Dreams of children and wife
Watching days go by together
Flowers bloom it's always bright
Need a genie for these wishes
Think the bottles getting lite
If it's impossible whatever
Forever just sounding right
I digress, I surrender
Feel the sun on my skin
I deserve a life of happiness
Maybe I should begin
Wouldn't choose a million dollars
Over waking up again
So what's that say about the problems I got

Life goes on, life goes on
A new day rises with the sun
Been holding back, for too long
Now these wings going take me home
An' I know every little thing's okay
Cause it's better that we go through change
Life goes on, life goes on
While I'm just here waiting

Life goes on, life goes on
A new day rises with the sun
Been holding back, for too long
Now these wings going take me home
An' I know every little thing's okay
Cause it's better that we go through change
Life goes on, life goes on
While I'm just here waiting
