This Is Life Lyrics – Bob Peace
Singer: Bob Peace
Title: This Is Life
We are born, umbilical cord snap crackle
and pop the baby drop into a midwife’s lap
Papa look down, if he’s even around,
giddy laughter merge with the universal OM sound
Congratulations aplenty,
big brother in the next room
snackin’ on good & plenty
A little jealous, new baby into the fam but he tell us,
he gon’ be the role model, the man
Age 1 & 2 they change us,
we can’t fend for ourselves,
then schools rearrange us,
we can’t think for ourselves
3 & 4 puttin’ sentences together,
regardless of the weather, we always do it better
It’s an innocent mind, the concept of mine,
his and hers, bilingual kids,
speakin’ double the words
Age 5 we learn about Columbus –
discovered a land where Natives living in abundance
7, they teach us ‘bout cursive,
some kids get bullied and become submissive
But me never that, the little league fat cat,
hittin’ homeruns with a wooden baseball bat
We kick soccer balls stationed at right wing,
like Spike Lee tryin’ to do the right thing
This is Life, This is Life, Oh, I said
This is Life, This is Life
This is Life, This is Life
This is Life, This is Life
Enter middle school, tryin’ to act a little cool,
tryin’ to cop a little feel on the girl
who grow up fast
Class clowns in the back of the room
with one motive,
uh, and that’s to blow up class
We spittin’ curses at the teachers
for the sole reason that the system can’t keep us
Engaged, 12 years old, words on the page,
I’d rather read about the sage Ramana Maharshi!
I’m hardly interested in,
the dialogue of wealthy businessmen,
who can’t keep us in
Check, some teachers concerned
about their next paycheck instead of inspiring
the generation next
Relationships spannin’ the grades,
juvenile love affairs that come, and then quickly fade
Telephone calls, basketballs,
in throw-up colored halls, takin’ trips to the malls
Uh, We wear our hats backwards,
wear baggy jeans, and idolize our favorite actors
Some kids hittin’ puberty,
doodling on looseleaf, parties up on the roof, PEACE
Get ready for the next phase,
it’s high school, I lick my thumb
and then turn the page
This is Life, This is Life, oh mama
This is Life, This is Life, oh mama
This is Life, oh This is Life
This is Life, This is Life
Now we freshmen, the best men,
we test men a little older than us,
a little bolder than us, they push the
Rover on us, strictly ‘cause they got it,
blue sofa, the kitty cat we shock it, keg parties we
Rock it, ‘til the cop car we spot it,
runnin’ through back woods,
cracked goods up in my pocket
Tryin’ to dress a bit more fresh,
feel a bit more blessed, cheat on a few more tests
We find out the SATs is socially biased,
read about corruption inside of NY’s finest, uh
So many ideas up in our head, 10 o’clock news,
nightmares in the bed and now it’s
Time to college, some people blessed
with financial means,
choosin’ schools with their favorite
Teams, 4 more years of education,
we wanna follow our dreams,
our parents sayin’ please be patient
Degree under the belt, enter the workforce,
gotta stay on my grind, just like a workhorse
People datin’, people matin’,
‘cause of unfettered passion in the bas#ment
40s and 50s, nervous breakdown,
we shakedown street take solace in the beat, uh
We’re gettin’ older starin’ death up in the mirror,
both hands to the sky sayin’ “God, I feel ya!”
Soul pass into the afterlife, heart hovers up
in heaven and it’s casting light
This is Life, oh This is Life, I said
This is Life, oh now This is Life
Said This is Life, oh this is Life
This is Life, This is Life
