Everyone's got their own path. What's yours???

lyrics

Addicted to Life
Vocals by Teisha Marie McKie

---V1---
People say, “Girl whatcha gonna do with yourself? Seems like you’re always runnin’ here or there.”
And I say, “I got one life and with my time I can’t do what works for everyone else.”
So I make sure to shine each day
and embrace all that comes my way
and I know that I that I’ll never be alone
‘cause as long as I got music
I’ve always got a home

CHORUS
I’m Addicted to Life
The ups and down and inbetweens
Different people need different things
But everybody’s looking for the truth
So I put the pen in my hand and as a vessel
Let the words flow through

---V2---

I used to try
to suppress the light that I had inside
because I was afraid of what I’d find
but one day
my words began to overflow
I started writing and decided to let it show
‘cause with life
you gotta move or be moved
and with my talent it’s use or lose
and with my purpose it’s show and prove
and in the rhythm of life
I’m glad I found my own groove

CHORUS (2x)

~BRIDGE~

I arm myself with love, peace and music
Love an expression of action
Peace – tranquility, be still and know
Rest when needing direction
Music – inspiration, therapy for the soul
I’m indebted to the ancestors and the Creator for this gift
I take my charge seriously and consider my purpose priceless
Therefore, use this offering as you will
I pray it motivates, strengthens and heals

CHORUS
