Macklemore and Ryan Lewis-LIFE IS CINEMA |
[00:02.280][Verse 1] |
|
[00:07.960] |
I don't know why |
[00:09.490] |
But it's like I can't stay quiet |
[00:12.700] |
This is my voice |
[00:14.390] |
I can't let it die inside me |
[00:16.460] |
See I'll be scared if there wasn't a riot |
[00:19.000] |
Pushing and pulling, grabbing some hair |
[00:23.020] |
Puking and fucking up the sidewalk |
[00:24.630] |
This battle makes it interesting |
[00:27.050] |
I abide desires |
[00:28.560] |
Like a dog pissing on the hydrant |
[00:30.890] |
Just to spite the fire |
[00:32.470] |
It's not to be taken lightly |
[00:34.160] |
The page is a set of eyelids |
[00:35.800] |
The booth is an instrument that God created |
[00:37.120] |
To record us trying to find him |
[00:40.710] |
But don't let the word throw you off |
[00:42.600] |
Religion and spirit are two different plots |
[00:44.430] |
Just know that it's bigger than me and my ego |
[00:47.110] |
When I'm flyin |
[00:48.210] |
Take me higher |
[00:49.330] |
I've got something to pray for |
[00:50.740] |
Please leave me when I'm guided |
[00:52.610] |
Who said that "Life is cinema"? |
[00:54.320] |
This is epic, be present |
[00:55.410] |
I'm right here |
[00:57.290] |
|
[00:57.560] |
Selfish, selfish, selfish me, yeah, me, yeah |
[00:59.070] |
Girlfriend, break-up, new one, one-night stand, cheat, cheat, repeat that |
[01:04.970] |
Drug use, clean up, drug use, drug use, clean up, drug use, rehab |
[01:09.320] |
Fuck you, I suck dude, self-loathing, self-esteem, ego, then me again |
[01:13.530] |
Put a soundtrack right in the middle |
[01:14.930] |
A neverending quest to try and get fans |
[01:16.830] |
There you have the beginning, a middle and a really shitty end |
[01:18.940] |
Nah, give me a break through, can I get a montage, come on I need that |
[01:25.850] |
Humble me, give me a conflict, a hardship, let me break through this cement |
[01:29.780] |
They're gonna be so disappointed when they roll the credits and |
[01:33.460] |
I realize that my movie sucked and I was the only one that could edit it |
[01:37.040] |
Well the course, the chain of events, that would be the evidence, some say it's coincidence |
[01:41.590] |
I say I found something greater than myself and started accepting it |
[01:45.780] |
And I can see, feel, taste and smell again |
[01:49.340] |
And I'm the only one with the hammer to break this shell I'm in |
[01:52.480] |
It's gonna take me crackin' this mirror to finally be myself again |
[01:56.930] |
Met my potential a long time ago and I'm not stopping til I resemble him |
[02:05.890] |
(I got soul but I'm not a soldier...) |
