My life be like Ooh Ahhh

The song by Grits, "My Life Be Like", is a song that you may hear on any regular radio station or see in someones ipod. While this is no big surprise because this is a good song, its actually pretty ironic. If you take a look at the lyrics to this song you will see that they're actually spiritual. The song sounds like a hip-hop song with its smooth rhythm and flowing lyrics but listening to those lyrics is the surprising part about the song. I've personally heard this song many times but I had never taken time to listen to what they were or look them up, but after I did I saw how the song has more meaning to it then just a beat and some rapping. The lyrics "Lord if you see me please come my way. Leavin bread crumbs for when I stray, rely on sacrifice and the price you paid," shows how the song talks about Christ and help that this person is looking for in Him.
"I'm callin on my savior to be all that I need please forgive me my behavior had me lost at light speed", these lyrics are probably my favorite of the song, showing how this person wants redemption. This song can also be a nice way to lift someones's spirit and help them get through a rough day they might be having. I don't know any other songs by Grits, but this is deffinately one of thier best.
