Life Speed Lyrics by Downsyde

All City

0

[Chorus: x2]
The signs are everywhere, next time make sure that you can read them right
It's too easy never to get, when you're travelling at the speed of life

[Verse 1]
Well, the clock keeps ticking but the time is up
Pick it up, live it up, better live it up
Work hard, wire 'em up, fire it up
You only got one chance like lightning struck
So light up on my lyrics, 'cause you lost ya way
Locked away with my rap, you could rock for days
So don't stop the pace, better lock and load
And don't slow the motor on this rocky road
See, it's the endeavour, not the vendetta
[?], and things will get better
And shit, ya get fed up with the life you lead
And I'm giving you the head up 'cause that's just life speed

[Pre-Chorus]
It's life speed, ready for a hell of a ride
It's life speed, get a header then ya ready to fight
It's life speed, go on, get on by from the daylight to the dead of the night

[Chorus: x2]
The signs are everywhere, next time make sure that you can read them right
It's too easy never to get, when you're travelling at the speed of life

[Verse 2]
Reading the signs of life like a paramedic
The socialist status leaves me paroletic
Totally blind that my mind couldn't stand a message
Trying to forget about the nine to fiver, check it
Alive or dead in the social lanes, in a hopeless age
Looking for a smoke to waste on a chosen trade in my early days
And I'm hoping for ways to get a better turn in pay, so
Which way to go? Do I play the show?
Or burn the blaze away when I sprain my toe
My face explodes and my brain unloads
'Cause the fans gonna sound like they tastin' toads
It'll break your nose when you smell the coffee
And the way he chose to play the game and not
The perfect plan more like a perfect chance
To strangle fate with burning hands, so

[Chorus: x2]
The signs are everywhere, next time make sure that you can read them right
It's too easy never to get, when you're travelling at the speed of life

[Bridge]
Travelling at the speed of light
All I need to believe is a reason why
But I'm breathin', a heathen is a big loud sigh
Why is this? And why is that?
Why's the sky blue? And my soul black?
I don't know? Am I so fat, can I get a soul clap?
Picture this like a Kodak moment we're holding
Is rolling like the stones are glowing
Showing me my life in words
Set back to the seat, now observe

[Pre-Chorus: x2]
Just go, go, gooo!
At the speed of life!
It's life speed, ready for a hell of a ride
It's life speed, get a header then ya ready to fight
It's life speed, go on, get on by from the daylight to the dead of the night

[Chorus: x2]
The signs are everywhere, next time make sure that you can read them right
It's too easy never to get, when you're travelling at the speed of life
