• Life Ain't Long

Verse 1:
Sampled some Coldplay. Then I made this instrumental.
After I finished it I felt a lil' sentimental.
I don't care. Go ‘head, label me soft, bro.
Pride the reason people out here feelin' lost, bro.

I backslid so far. How did I go off track?
Guidance from my Heavenly Father, I know I lacked.
Down the wrong roads, I took more hikes than quarterbacks.
Wasting too many days, going nowhere like a cul-de-sac.

Mostly at the clubs partyin’.
Found security in my blanket of money, making it my guardian.
Not thinking ‘bout this precious life I was squanderin’.
I had to make up my mind; would I obey God or men?

Thanks to the Lamb of God for coming to save all the sinners,
Excluding the self-righteous, hypocritical pretenders.
Many need this encouragement, so I couldn't stall.
I knew had to write this song, ‘cause life ain’t long.

Hook:
Life ain't long. I know, life ain’t long.
Life ain't long. Life ain't long. I know, life ain't long.

This life is so short. Therefore, I can’t afford
Not livin’ for the Lord.
I ain’t gotta a lot of time.
I gotta get it right.

Verse 2:
Yeah. It seemed hard to manage havin' all of these talents.
Staying humble and hungry’s a diet that’s hard to balance.
Holy Spirit was tugging me, although my heart was calloused.
Thought I was fly ‘til the Most High showed me I was a maggot.

I had forsaken the assembly with true worshippers
And was embracing the lifestyle pertaining to earthly lusts.
The things of world can be burdensome and so demanding.
That’s why He counsels us to lean on Him for understanding.

If God provides daily for all the birds,
I know I gotta to trust the Lord and take Him at His Word.
Now I understand man doesn’t live by bread alone.
His Word has given me life, and fed my soul.

Thought I was saved, actin’ like I understood enough
But repentance is a daily thing. No one’s good enough.
I can’t take this life for granted. I must give my all
For the Lord to right my wrongs, ‘cause life ain’t long.

Hook:
Life ain't long. I know, life ain’t long.
Life ain't long. Life ain't long. I know, life ain't long.

This life is so short. Therefore, I can’t afford
Not livin’ for the Lord.
I ain’t gotta a lot of time.
I gotta get it right. I gotta get it, right.

Outro:
Life ain’t long. Life ain’t long.
