Life Goes On
Cunnie Williams Lyrics

We were young had
When we were young, we had dreams like everyone.

Dreams like everyone
We had aspirations and goals, just like everybody else.

Will they come true only
It's uncertain if our dreams and aspirations will come to fruition.

God knows son
We can't control our fate, only God knows what will happen.

That's what momma says
Our mother reinforced this idea throughout our lives.

She's not here today
Despite her absence now, her words still resonate with us.

Had visions of what our
We had idealized visions of what our lives would become.

Lives would be
We imagined a happy and fulfilling future for ourselves.

Jaded pictures give us reality
The harsh reality we face is not as idealistic as we had imagined.

Somethings pulling me unknown gravity
We feel like something - possibly fate - is pulling us in a certain direction, though we don't exactly know what it is.

In a world were life's not guaranteed
Living in a world where nothing is certain has us feeling uncertain.

Do we know what is our destiny
We question whether or not we know what our purpose is in life.

Hope was all we had
Despite the uncertainty, hope was the one thing we held on to.

Sometimes life was bad
There were times when things didn't go the way we'd hoped they would.

But I'll remember you
We still hold on to the memories of those we've lost along the way.

Till the day I die never
We won't ever forget them, even until the end of our lives.

Let them stop me from tryin to fly
We won't let anything or anyone stop us from pursuing our goals.

Pain and misery
The pain and misery we've experienced in life has hardened us and made us stronger.

Has made a stronger
These experiences have made us into a stronger person.

Me and life
We and life are intertwined; we can't escape it.

Life goes on
Despite the highs and lows, life keeps moving forward.

And I still remember
We will always remember the good and the bad times.

Cold days in December
Even during the coldest, darkest days in life, we have to keep pushing forward.

Praying things get better
We hope that things will get better in the future.

Knowing everything
We are aware that everything in life changes.

Must change
Change is inevitable and necessary for us to grow and move forward.

Memories of the joy
We reflect on the memories of happy times we've had in life.

We used to share
Those memories are of times we shared with others.

And the laughter that's
We think back on the moments of joy and laughter that are no longer present.

No longer there
We feel the absence of those who used to bring us happiness and laughter.

Make me shed a tear
The memories of these times can bring us to tears.

Wish that you were here
We wish that those who are no longer with us were still here to share these moments with us.

Cause everthough we're gone
Though we are no longer together, we still cherish those memories.

Are separate ways
We have all gone on to experience different paths in life.

I can't help thinking about yesterday
Despite moving forward, we still find ourselves reflecting on the past and what once was.

When we played as kids
We remember the simple times when we were kids playing together.

And all the things we did
We recall the memories of the things we did together back then.

Know on know's why life
We don't know why life plays out the way it does.

Takes a funny change
Life has a way of unexpectedly changing course.

In the blink of on
It can happen in an instant.

Eye it's not the same
Life can change so quickly that it is completely different than it was just moments before.

Just remember pray
We must remember to hope and pray for the best in life.

Dreams do slip away but life
Although our dreams may not always come true, life continues to move forward.

Everything must change
Ultimately, everything in life will change.

Nothing stays the same
Nothing can stay the same forever.
