[00:21.55]I can't go on like this
[00:24.19]Knowing that I'm just getting by
[00:27.47]Can't go on like this
[00:29.50]Knowing that I'm just getting high
[00:32.74]Can't go on like this
[00:34.76]Knowing that I'm just getting by
[00:38.05]Can't go on like this
[00:40.03]Knowing that I'm just getting high
[00:42.70]Well, I wake up
[00:43.82]Around ten in the morning
[00:45.91]Feeling crazy, feeling on it
[00:48.66]From the night before 'cause I was up
[00:51.46]Till four in the morning plus some
[00:54.60]So I take long trip
[00:57.04]And then I take out my song scripts
[00:59.76]When I sit down to write
[01:01.69]I always look to God to help me see the light
[01:03.97]But I know, that I ain't even livin' right
[01:06.51]And I know, that I can't live by the night
[01:09.29]But it's so hard for me just to put it down
[01:11.97]So hard for me to pass up the crown
[01:14.91]When it's been passed down
[01:16.17]I'm sitting on the throne
[01:18.06]Sometimes I feel in this world I've just been thrown
[01:20.80]Not been showing it, and I don't know
[01:22.82]When to slow it down
[01:25.56]But I can't go on like this
[01:28.24]Knowing that I'm just getting by
[01:31.48]Can't go on like this
[01:33.50]Knowing that I'm just getting high
[01:36.74]Can't go on like this
[01:38.86]Knowing that I'm just getting by
[01:42.10]Can't go on like this
[01:44.08]Knowing that I'm just getting high
[01:46.11]But this is the life, life, life
[01:48.69]Life, the life
[01:51.76]This is the life, life, the life
[01:54.13]Life, the life
[01:57.22]This is the life, life, the life
[01:59.50]Life, the life
[02:02.28]They tell me it's the life, life, the life
[02:04.76]Life, the life
[02:09.75]Once again, I hit the hot spot with my so-called friends
[02:13.45]Then I hit the ATM and then I realize I ain't got no ends
[02:18.66]Then I call up my kin, hey, my money's going
[02:21.45]I'm standing at the bar but the drinks quit flowing
[02:24.49]Strap for gas sitting on the block
[02:26.66]Drunk as hell tryna 'void the damn cops
[02:28.84]And this is how it is sometimes when you fall off track
[02:31.97]Like when your record's stretched and you try to run it back
[02:34.71]But sometimes the stretch got to deep an impact
[02:37.30]It makes it so hard for you not to look back
[02:40.02]Regretting things you did in the past
[02:42.11]I wake up in the morning tell myself it won't last
[02:44.79]But I tend to get another glass, then I
[02:48.48]Start to act just like an ass, but I
[02:51.26]Can't go on like this
[02:53.23]Knowing that I'm just getting by
[02:56.52]Can't go on like this
[02:58.54]Knowing that I'm just getting high
[03:01.78]Can't go on like this
[03:03.86]Knowing that I'm just getting by
[03:07.15]Can't go on like this
[03:09.18]Knowing that I'm just getting high
[03:11.10]But this is the life, life, the life
[03:13.68]Life, the life
[03:17.16]This is the life, life, the life
[03:19.44]Life, the life
[03:22.32]They tell me it's the life, life, the life
[03:24.81]Life, the life
[03:27.59]They tell me it's the life, life, the life
[03:30.12]Life, the life
[03:31.54]Life, life, life, life...
[03:44.26]I can't go on like this
[03:46.89]Knowing that I'm just getting by
[03:50.13]Can't go on like this
[03:52.21]Knowing that I'm just getting high
[03:54.08]But this is the life, life, life
[03:56.75]Life, the life
[03:59.80]This is the life, life, the life
[04:02.07]The life, the life
[04:05.12]This is the life, life, the life
[04:07.34]Life, the life
[04:10.23]This is the life, life, the life
[04:12.71]Life, the life
[04:14.25]Life, the life, the life...
[04:16.23]But I can't go on like this
[04:18.91]Knowing that I'm just getting by
[04:22.21]Can't go on like this
[04:24.23]Knowing that I'm just getting high
[04:27.48]Can't go on like this
[04:29.50]Knowing that I'm just getting by
[04:32.74]Can't go on like this
[04:34.77]Knowing that I'm just getting high
[04:42.64]This is my life, my life...
