If That's How It's Gotta Be

Said my freedom said please stay
Said i'm waiting amma say

And i ran away from living
Thought i wanted it that way
Every step i should be giving
But i'm stuck feeling just pain

If thats how it's gotta be

Can we love we should pray
Can we trust it'll go our way

If i knew why i'd be living
Except i wanted it that way
And i tried i'm always trying
And i wanted you to stay

If that's how its gotta be

In my freedom in my pain
Will they leave me amma say

And i wanted to believe it
That you wanted it that way
And my love has lost its feeling
And my love what should it say
And i tried to let you love me
And i wanted it that way
And i know you'll always love me
Can you please help make me stay

If that's how its gotta be
To make me try to be

And i ran away from living
But i wanted it that way
Every step i should be giving
But i'm stuck feeling just pain
If i knew why i'd be living
Except i wanted it that way
And i tried i'm always trying
And i wanted you to say

That's how its gotta be
If that's how its gotta be
