Life Is Short

This life is short don’t waste it / this life is what you make it / This life is short don’t waste it / this life is what you make it /

Don’t call it jiggy, call it danceable / throw out a beat to fill the dance floor / I’ll be on the side just sitting and watching / happy and content vicariously rocking/ it’s great to be alive and well / still in the capital where I reside and dwell / so tell me if you hear me loud and clearly / reality’s just a bit more near me / so we make the most of every given minute / here’s a jam for the world and the 7 billion minute limits we know not / don’t really want to stop / go getter’s get what they got by goin’ for it / caught in this crazy mix over the years learn some tricks / throw them on my records just for kicks and it’s obvious that if it’s what God gives / see we got to keep the energy positive /

Chorus

this life is short don’t waste it / don’t waste it I hope that you appreciate it / this life is what you make it / what you make it I hope that you appreciate it / (x2)

every new day brings a new day / to say thank you and relay my gratitude / for the time I’ve been given / listen been given permission to embrace the rhythm / so live a little / come on breathe a little / tell me who wants me to rhyme for closed minded people / not I okay good me neither / this here feature wont follow procedure / instead the forecast includes a brainstorm / with elastic thinking to help me stretch the norm / life’s too short for me to conform / daily renewal helps me transform and live life to the utmost here’s a toast to the future / faith, love and hope / and all the things that truly remain and exist / it goes a little something like, like…. /

Chorus (x2)

Life’s too short to have enemies/ I make no apologies for being friendly/ life’s too short to live in poverty / I’m not talking money I’m talking mentally / cause I’ve been broke and at the same time happy / I’m well aware of my history / so I approach life a little more humbly / because being full of yourself will leave you empty

Chorus (x4)
