Life Is What You Make It
King T-Finesse Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
The same place
A lost generation
A lost invitation
To your life
What is it that you do?
When no one is around?
Do you feel like I do?
Know you're doing fine
Beautiful worlds in your mind
Know you're doing fine
All you have is time
It might make you feel down
To feel your time is up
Look upon the clouds
Behind, you'll see the sky is blue
What is it that you do?
When no one is around?
Do you feel like I do?
Endless roaming around
Know you're doing fine
Beautiful worlds in your mind
Know you're doing fine
All you have is time
The lyrics of King T-Finesse's song "Life Is What You Make It" reflect a feeling of being trapped or stagnant in life. The lines "Stuck in the same space, the same place" convey a sense of being stuck in a monotonous routine or a repetitive cycle, feeling unable to progress or move forward. The reference to a "lost generation" and a "lost invitation to your life" could imply a feeling of not fully embracing or taking advantage of the opportunities and experiences life has to offer.
The chorus then poses a series of introspective questions, asking what one does when nobody is around and if they feel the same way as the songwriter. This suggests a sense of loneliness or a feeling of being disconnected from others, wondering if anyone else shares the same struggles or emotions. The line "Endless roaming around" could represent the aimless wandering or searching for purpose and meaning in life.
Despite these feelings of being stuck or lost, the lyrics also offer a glimpse of hope and encouragement. The lines "Know you're doing fine, beautiful worlds in your mind" suggest that despite external circumstances, the person being addressed is doing okay and possesses a rich inner world filled with imagination and creativity. The line "All you have is time" may be a reminder that there is still plenty of opportunity to change and shape one's circumstances, to make the most of the moments and possibilities that lie ahead.
The final lines of the chorus contrast the potential feelings of despair with a reminder to look beyond the immediate circumstances. The reference to looking at the clouds, and behind them, seeing that the sky is blue, suggests that there is beauty and brightness beyond the temporary troubles or challenges one may be facing. It encourages a shift in perspective to realize that there is still hope and possibility.
Overall, "Life Is What You Make It" speaks to the struggles of feeling stuck or lost in life, while also reminding the listener that they hold the power to shape their own destiny. It encourages introspection, embracing one's inner worlds, and finding hope and beauty even in the midst of challenges.

This is probably some of the most recent shit I’ll even listen to. How come new rap songs don’t put in the same energy as this. This song was pure gold. Timeless.
