In my hometown,
There is no street with my name, no crown
I am no king and the kids they don't know my name
It's like nothing has changed
Life takes you up and down
And life spins you all around
The good life, I know I made it the good life
I know I've made it with you
In my hometown,
My friends are saying "What happened to you?"
"We thought you made it,
And you'd be driving Bentley's
And living the good life for us all"
My father says "When will you make it?"
My mother says "He'll learn to fake it"
But I'm not you and you're not me
But I'm as good as I can be baby
Life takes you up and down,
And life spins you all around
The good life, I know I made it the good life
I know I've made it
And life takes you up and down,
And life spins you all around
The good life, I know I made it the good life
I know I've made it with you
Oh I know that this the good life
I can see
Oh I know that this the good life
Oh I know that this the good life
I can see
I wanna live
And I say, I know I made it the good life
Open your eyes
Your friends, your lover, your soul, your mind
It's, it's right there baby
All the time it goes like
Life takes you up and down,
And life spins you all around
The good life, I know I made it the good life
I know I've made it
And life takes you up and down,
And life spins you all around
The good life, I know I made it the good life
I know I've made it with you
Oh I know that this the good life
I can see it baby
I know that this the good life
I wanna live the good life
Oh I know that this the good life
I can see it baby
Now I see it baby
I wanna live the good life
