Intro

Check it out yo’,
life… uh…
check it out yo’.



Verse One

Yo, check it…
when I hit thirty I thought my life would get a lot easier,
accumulated knowledge from the world like Wikipedia,
I felt that I had learned enough to hardly make mistakes,
and move towards my future having minimal complaints,
but I was incorrect, because the struggle got real,
more money, more problems? Less money, more bills
and just like everyone else I had dreams
of owning properties and always traveling overseas
and eating in the finest restaurants from London to Paris,
but then I stopped to ask myself what does this really mean?
And is there something in between the lines that I am overlooking?
Found that someone that was deep inside and now I overtook him,
see after many years of contemplation and reflection,
I figured out the most important thing was my connection
to the people in my life and it began to make sense,
cos’ you can’t put a price on life experience.... I said



Chorus (x2)

You can’t put a price on life experience
you can’t put a price on life experience
you can’t put a price on life experience,
I said you can’t put a price on life experience.



Verse Two

When I hit forty, I found I had a lot more inner peace,
thinking more about my words like it’s an after dinner speech,
and I accept that I don't have to understand the universe,
and it can take time for difficulties to reverse,
and there’s nobody born with a bag of promises,
so life can start one way then finish opposite,
so it’s important that we get to know who we are,
so we can be prepared for seasons that are truly harsh,
they say a lot can be learned from hard times,
if you memorize and recall the lesson like hard drives,
I can do what everyone does that’s no sweat,
but I’ll probably only get what everybody gets,
so I don’t stand with the crowd for crowd sake,
oblivious to everything, but feeling like now I’m safe,
that ain’t the case, ay’ yo’ 100 man, that doesn’t make sense,
cos’ you can’t put a price on life experience.



Chorus
