Mali Music Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Thinking we living when we dead inside
We telling people what we see
Telling people what he heard
But they're just lies
Because we are all deaf
And we so so blind
Tell the people, tell 'em Ima get it
No one wants to hear it but I guess it's
Best that we go near it
It's seeming to be very very necessary
I mean it
And I'm on one
So come a lil' closer
Yes I'm on son
Holding with all my might
And I promise I ain't letting go
Til' I get what I ain't got no more
When need a peace of mind
Yeah I lost it and I'm looking for it
Sometimes I feel like, I got no where to go
My days get dark and my nights get cold
That's when I need you
I know I'm running long
So if you got the peace, if you got the love
Say I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
See we using a whole lot of energy trying to hold it all together
When the truth is busting out the seams
We call ourselves doing it
We call ourselves chasing dreams
It's crazy cause we all know in our hearts
It's never really what it seems
So instead of fronting more
Let's go back
Start from the beginning
Let's be honest
And tell what's happening
See we ain't on that
It's sad cause we've been fronting so long
Now we don't even know how to start on being real
But I got you
My head hurt and my back do to
And sometimes I don't know what I'm going to do
I worry, you worry
It's natural to worry
Cause life get's ugly, it ain't always pearly
Sometimes I feel like, I got no where to go
My days get dark and my nights get cold
That's when I need you
I know I'm running long
So if you got the peace, if you got the love
Say I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
Ooh what's really happening (What's really happening)
Tell us what's going on (Won't you tell us what's going on)
I see you came and I'm glad you did
Cause I need you in my life
I need it in my life
Sometimes I feel like, I got no where to go
My days get dark and my nights get cold
That's when I need you
I know I'm running long
So if you got the peace, if you got the love
Say I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
You know we spend a whole lot time
Thinking we living when we dead inside
The lyrics of Mali Music's song "My Life" are a reflection on the human condition and the struggles of everyday life. The first stanza expresses the idea that as human beings, we often spend too much time worrying about things that don't really matter, while ignoring the things that truly do. We become so caught up in the world around us that we become blind and deaf to reality. The message of the song is that we need to stop fooling ourselves and start being honest about what's really happening in our lives.
The second verse talks about the pressure people feel to hold everything together and chase their dreams, even when they're not happy. The underlying message is that we need to stop pretending and be real with ourselves and others. Life is not always perfect, but being honest about our struggles and having the support of loved ones can make all the difference.
The chorus repeats the idea that when life gets tough, we need the love and support of those around us. We can't make it through alone, but with the help of others, we can find the strength to keep going.
Overall, the song is a heartfelt call for honesty, connection, and support in the face of life's challenges.

You know we spend a whole lot time
We waste a lot of time
Thinking we living when we dead inside
Believing we're alive, but really feeling empty
We telling people what we see
We're sharing information based on our limited perspectives
Telling people what he heard
We're perpetuating rumors and hearsay
But they're just lies
But those things aren't true
Because we are all deaf
Because we don't truly listen to each other
And we so so blind
And we don't see the reality
So in honor of the truth it
So to acknowledge the truth
Tell the people, tell 'em Ima get it
I'll let people know I'll get what I need

We call ourselves doing it
We think we're succeeding
We call ourselves chasing dreams
We're pursuing our goals
It's crazy cause we all know in our hearts
It's crazy because deep down we all understand
It's never really what it seems
Things aren't always as they appear
So instead of fronting more
So instead of pretending even more

Let's start from the start
Let's be honest
Let's be truthful

Now we don't even know how to start on being real
Now we don't even know where to begin to be ourselves
But I got you
But I'm here for you
My head hurt and my back do to
My head and back hurt too
And sometimes I don't know what I'm going to do
And sometimes I feel lost
I worry, you worry
I'm anxious, and you are too
It's natural to worry
It's a normal feeling
Cause life get's ugly, it ain't always pearly
Because life gets difficult and isn't always perfect
Ooh what's really happening (What's really happening)
Oh, what's actually going on
Tell us what's going on (Won't you tell us what's going on)
Please share what's happening

I see you're here, and I'm happy about it
Cause I need you in my life
Because I require your presence
Sometimes I feel like, I got no where to go
Sometimes I feel lost
My days get dark and my nights get cold
I feel unhappy at times
That's when I need you
That's when I need support
I know I'm running long
I know I've been talking for a while
So if you got the peace, if you got the love
If you have the calmness and love
Say I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
Please bring it into my life, by myself
I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
I need it in my life, by myself
I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
I need it in my life, by myself
I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
I need it in my life, by myself

You know we spend a whole lot time
Thinking we living when we dead inside

But they're just lies
Because we are all deaf
And we so so blind
[Verse 1]
So in honor of the truth I'll tell it

I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
I need it in my life, my life, my life, alone
[Interlude]

I love his music, he talks about life, love, sex, etc everything the old church is shying away from. He's the voice right now and I still feel the spiritual side. this is his lane and he rides in it awesomely
