Life Is Like Music

Life plays us like music
she plays it right
we sing it a nice lyric
she plays its wrong
we sing a sad song
some goes to the top
some never stop, getting dropped
BUT LIFE IS LIKE MUSIC
hip hop, rock, pop and reggae 
we put it together
we get a song on a Sunday
BUT LIFE IS LIKE MUSIC
many plays it so nice
you know they making charts
better be-careful people
before it drives you nuts
some pop till they dropp 
they never get back up
next thing you know
they selling rocks 
to climb back to the top
BUT LIFE IS LIKE MUSIC  
so if you know got a nice tone
sing it and never look back
cause life gives you one sheet
make music and make everyone clap.
