That's Life
Starlite Singers Lyrics

That's life (that's life), that's what all the people say
Life is unpredictable and full of ups and downs, and nobody can escape its twists and turns.

You're riding high in April
Life can be good and full of high points, which may not last long.

Shot down in May
Life can be full of unexpected setbacks and disappointments, which can bring us down.

But I know I'm gonna change that tune
Despite the setbacks, I am confident that I will overcome them and improve the situation.

When I'm back on top, back on top in June
I believe that I will overcome the difficulties and come back stronger, and things will improve by June.

I said, that's life (that's life), and as funny as it may seem
Although life may seem unpredictable and at times, absurd, we must accept it as it is.

Some people get their kicks
Some people find joy in putting others down or stomping on their dreams.

Stompin' on a dream
Some people may try to prevent others from achieving their goals or dreams.

But I don't let it, let it get me down
I do not allow others to discourage me or bring me down, and I stay optimistic despite their negative actions.

'Cause this fine old world it keeps spinnin' around
The world goes on, no matter what happens, and we have to keep up with it and adapt to its changes.

I've been a puppet, a pauper, a pirate
I have experienced the highs and lows of life, from being controlled by others to living in poverty or even becoming a criminal.

A poet, a pawn and a king
I have also experienced success and power in various forms, as well as moments of creativity and inspiration.

I've been up and down and over and out
I have faced many challenges and obstacles, as well as overcome them with determination and resilience.

And I know one thing
Through all my experiences, I have learned one important thing.

Each time I find myself flat on my face
Whenever I face a setback or failure.

I pick myself up and get back in the race
I always get back up and keep trying, without giving up on my goals and dreams.

That's life (that's life), I tell ya, I can't deny it
Life is full of challenges and unpredictability, and we have to accept it as it is.

I thought of quitting, baby
Although I have faced many challenges, giving up is never an option.

But my heart just ain't gonna buy it
My inner drive and determination keep me going, and I am unwilling to quit.

And if I didn't think it was worth one single try
Even if the odds seem against me, I still believe that trying is worth it.

I'd jump right on a big bird and then I'd fly
I would take action and go after my dreams, no matter the obstacles, and persevere.

Many times I thought of cuttin' out but my heart won't buy it
Despite feeling like giving up many times, my inner drive and determination keep me going.

But if there's nothing shakin' come this here July
If there are no signs of improvement or progress by July.

I'm gonna roll myself up in a big ball and die
Although I never give up, I sometimes imagine what it would be like to quit and give in to the challenges.

My, my
An expression of surprise or amazement at the unpredictability of life.
