Lyrics
I hear you calling my name Mornings and nights Live for the money and fame I know it aint right They say this life is a game You lose when you die You say that you love me but damn I know it’s a lie Verse 1: Can’t get you out of my mind And I don’t know why You ain’t no good for me Lord knows I’ve tried And I know that this is wrong But it feels so right The life of this world Holding me tight Bridge: Wake up and what do you know Everything is gone I was deceived! Told me that I was the one How could I be so dumb And really believe? Every lie that she said Went straight into my head I was naïve! She got me living in jail Waiting for me to exhale But now I’m free From the life of this world From the life of this world Chorus: I hear you calling my name Mornings and nights Live for the money and fame I know it ain’t right They say this life is a game You lose when you die You say that you love me but damn I know it’s a lie Verse 2: They say that love is blind But now I can see All the games you played Lies and deceit! But really who’s to blame? Is it you or me? All you did was call And I ran happily Bridge 2 And No! I aint playing no more! You better walk out that door This is goodbye! I know I’ve been here before This time I wont let go I will survive Gotta give up on my own Fighting my Nafs in a war I’ll still alive Putting my trust in my Lord There’s nowhere else to go But up to the sky From the life of this world From the life of this world Chorus: I hear you calling my name Mornings and nights Live for the money and fame I know it aint right They say this life is a game You lose when you die You say that you love me but damn I know it’s a lie
