Life Is Short
by John Reuben

Album: So In Hindsight

Come on everybody, it's about that time repeat x3

Hook 1: Toby McKeehan
This life is short, don't waste it.
This life is what you make it! x2

V1: J. Reuben
Don't call it jiggy, call it danceable.
Throw out a beat to fill the dance floor,
I'll be on the side just sitting and watching,
happy and content vicariously rocking.

It's great to be alive and well, still in the capital where I reside and dwell.
So tell me if you hear me loud and clearly, reality's just a bit more near me.
So we make the most of every given minute,
here's a jam for the world and the 7 billion in it.

Limits we know not, don't really want to stop, go-getters get what they got by going for it.
Caught in this crazy mix over the years, learned some tricks.
Throw 'em on my records just for kicks and it's obvious that if it's what God gives,
see we got to keep the energy positive.

Hook 2:
This life is short, don't waste it!
Don't waste it, I hope that you appreciate it.
This life is what you make it! What you make it,
I hope that you appreciate it. x2

V2: J. Reuben
Hey, every new day brings a new day
To say thank You and relay my gratitude. For the time,
I've been given, listen, been given permission to embrace the rhythm.

So live a little, come on, breathe a little. Tell me, who wants me to rhyme for close-minded people?
Not I, okay good, me neither.

This here feature won't follow procedure, instead, the forecast includes a brainstorm.
With elastic thinking to help me stretch the norm.
Life's too short for me to conform
Daily renewal helps me transform
And live life to the utmost.
Here's a toast to the future:
Faith, love and hope.
And all the things that truly remain and exist, it goes a little something like, like...

Hook 2: x2

Spoken
Come on, yeah!
So, I'm thinking life...is...anyways.

J. Reuben: Raps
Life's too short to have enemies,
I make no apologies for being friendly.
Life's too short to live in poverty, I'm not talking money, I'm talking mentally.
Cause I've been broke and at the same time happy,
I'm well aware of my history.
So I approach life a little more humbly, cause being full of yourself will leave you empty.

Hook 2: 3x

Hook 1: repeat 2x

Bump, bump, bump!
