K.Maro "Good Old Days"

Somehow when time is hard you need to carry on
When you try but it feels like nothing's right
You got to keep on going on
I tell you lean on me like I could lean on you
You count on me like I can count on you
believe in your dreams so they believe in you too
Cause this is all we can do

As far as I can remember, life was different man
Sometimes I look back it feels like I'm a different man
Trust me I prayed every day to survive
Today I pay a 100k on a car that I don't even drive
I used to dream of the world seeing different countries
Today I fly first class to rest under a palm tree
But it's still strange to me am I gonna fall back
The truth when you got nothing
Is that you ain't scared of all that
You don't think about it you just dream about it
Today if my suit ain't right you'll f**kin' hear about it
But f**k it! It is my life and I'm not changing it
Let's drink for every dream that I have
Let's drink for making it
And this is what I'm about and this is who I am
I got my reasonable doubts I try the best I can
It took me a while to understand
But every time I held a mic in my hand
I did it for the fans

Somehow when time is hard you need to carry on
When you try but it feels like nothing's right
You got to keep on going on
I tell you lean on me like I could lean on you
You count on me like I can count on you
believe in your dreams so they believe in you too
Cause this is all we can do

I did so many things I thought that I would never do
like playing for 15 thousand people on Moscow
think we have some money here? They got some heavy money too
belles demoiselles et la Bentley coupe au rendez-vous
it is so crazy that I can't help looking back
I was a wild child homie, can you imagine that
How you can change your life just like a game of poker
If you haven't seen the river yet the game is not over
I used do wait for time to pass by
now I can't run fast enough for it not to catch me by
so I'm gonna tell you one thing you better fight for your dreams
you never know, it might be even easier that it seems
and this is what I'm about and this is who I am
I got my reasonable doubts I try the best I can
It took me a while to understand
but every time I held a mic in my hand
I did it for the fans

Somehow when time is hard you need to carry on
When you try but it feels like nothing's right
You got to keep on going on
I tell you lean on me like I could lean on you
You count on me like I can count on you
believe in your dreams so they believe in you too
Cause this is all we can do

I just like the words.

P.S. Actually, this is the only one song from K.Maro I ever heard. However, it looks like he has more :) http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/K.Maro
