I only ask of y'all
What I ask of myself...
Are you doin' in life what you was meant to ?
Are you doin' in life what you was sent to ?
Are you leadin' the life that you wanna live ?
Are you livin' your life in a way to win ?
Are you doin' in life what you was meant to ?
Are you doin' in life what you was sent to ?
Are you leadin' the life that you wanna live ?
Are you livin' your life in a way to win ?
Here and now, limited hours on earth
Make the most of yours, recognize time's worth
Formulate somethin' solid just for you...
Before this crazy ball splits in two
Are you doin' in life what you was meant to ?
Are you doin' in life what you was sent to ?
Are you leadin' the life that you wanna live ?
Are you livin' your life in a way to win ?
Do you accomplish the things you set out to do ?
Did you realize the dreams you had when you were twenty-two ?
Do you keep responsibility Minority ?
Do you keep freedom 'n' liberty Priority?
Do you get back on your feet when you take a fall ?
Do you stand up proud ? Do you stand up tall ?
Did ya end up with the girl you lost sleep over ?
Or did ya get out of bed with a deadly hangover ?
Searchin' affection in all the wrong places
Blowin' all your dough on store-bought embraces
Making the same mistake a million times forever
Loose ground daily, forgettin' your endeavors
Always tripping over yourself when you need to glide
Never seeming to find your stride in this lifetime
Never in the right place at the right time
Never finding yourself the slightest peace of mind
Falling into debt with no hope of recovery
Searching desperately for some kind of discovery
But gotta drag yourself up -- up out of bed
N gotta scrape out your skull -- clear out your head
And Gotta turn sh** around - like you know you can
Only YOU got the power and the right to demand
A life of pride -- one to call your own
Where you're your own ruler -- the Man on the throne
Are you doin' in life what you was meant to ?
Are you doin' in life what you was sent to ?
Are you leadin' the life that you wanna live ?
Are you livin' your life in a way to win ?
Are you doin' in life what you was meant to ?
Are you doin' in life what you was sent to ?
Are you leadin' the life that you wanna live ?
Are you livin' your life in a way to win ?
Here and now, limited hours on earth
Make the most of yours, recognize time's worth
Formulate somethin' solid just for you...
Before this crazy ball splits in two
Are you doin' in life what you was meant to ?

Are you leadin' the life that you wanna live ?

Are you doin' in life what you was meant to ?
Are you doin' in life what you was sent to ?
Are you leadin' the life that you wanna live ?
Are you livin' your life in a way to win ?
Are you doin' in life what you was meant to ?
Are you doin' in life what you was sent to ?
Are you leadin' the life that you wanna live ?
Are you livin' your life in a way to win ?
