"I'm Alive" lyrics

"I'm Alive"

Doesn't matter that much to me
To live a life of luxury
And I don't want to be a king
Have all my fingers covered in rings
Long as both of my eyes can see
As long as I've got two legs and feet
Well, other things are just formalities

Woh, I'm alive, so glad to be free
I'm alive, don't you envy me
I've survived
All the things I've seen
Places I've been
Do you know what I mean
Just wanna celebrate
Every breath I take
I'm alive

It doesn't matter that much to me
If I don't leave no legacy
And I don't want to sit on a throne
Or walk about in fancy clothes
Long as both of my eyes can see
As long as I've got two legs and feet
Well, other things are just formalities

Woh, I'm alive, so glad to be free
I'm alive, don't you envy me
I've survived
All the things I've seen
Places I've been
Do you know what I mean
Just wanna celebrate
Every breath I take
I'm alive
