Lyrics Alicia Keys

Alicia Keys

The Life

1. Everyday I realize that this might be the last day of my life

Walkin down the streets I find (heyyyyy)

I'm coming closer and closer to losing my mind

Cause when it rains, it pours

Isn't life worth more?

I don't even know what I'm hustlin for

You gotta do what you gotta do

Just to make it through

All the hard times that's gonna face you

R: /: This is the life

(This is the life)

Striving to survive :/

This is the life

2. Living will always be a struggle

Looking for someone true to love you

Looking back I see all the horrors

This madness makes me wanna hide

I watch slowly, internally

I'm dying

Pillowcases wet from all my crying

Cause there is nothing more to be here for

Take me away

I can't live that life no more

R: This is the life... (4x)

This is the life

Yeah (6x)
