Aloe Blacc - My Story Lyrics






Come on close
I wanna start the show up by telling you
A little bit about myself
Bout my story

Gray hairs are the ribbons
For a game of life well played
And the wrinkles are trophies
For the progress that I have made
Any good that I've done so far
Was probably just a mistake
And if they're giving now credits
For foolish hearts
That's credit I'd gladly take

I can count all the people
I call best friends on one hand
Being someone people count on
That's how I became the man

This is my story
The life that I have found
This is my story
It's full of ups and downs
It's a true story
Of good times and of sorrow
A brand new old story
Of yesterday and tomorrow

But thanks to those
Who laid the road before me
Laid the road
So I could tell my story

Every tree that ever grew
Knew just which way to grow
And every bird that ever flew
Knew just which way to go
I can count all the people
I call best friends on one hand
Being someone people count on
Well that's how I became the man

Time is the bridge we cross
To help us on our way
Reminds us who we used to be
And where we are today

This is my story
The life that I have found
This is my story
It's full of ups and downs
It's a true story
Of good times and of sorrow
A brand new old story
Of yesterday and tomorrow

Thanks to those
Who paved the way before me
And laid the road
So I could tell my story
Well time is the bridge we cross
To help us on our way
Reminds us who we used to be
And where we are today

This is my story
A life that I have found
This is my story
It's full of ups and downs
It's a true story
Of good times and of sorrow
A brand new old story
Of yesterday and tomorrow

This is my story
Yes it is, yes it is
It's my story
It's full of ups and downs
It's a true story
Of good times and of sorrow
A brand new old story
Of yesterday and tomorrow

It's my story, hey, hey
My story, hey, yeah
A true story, hey, yeah

Thanks to those
Who paved the way before me
And laid the road
So I could tell my story

    Good song, great melody and a gift for black history month, just says how far we have come

    C.... J....

    Cypher Ades I am not black personally but I am so grateful that things have changed for the better. I’m sure many would say we have so far to go still and I’m sure that’s true but it makes me so proud to see aloe Blacc singing a song about America and yes he’s black but black or white or in between, it’s all our America. I’m so grateful to him and everyone who came before and fought for justice. Thank you for posting. This is such a positive thing to be able to teach my children because black history is American history.
    ❤️
