Lyrics
Intro:
One life to live
so I gotta make the most of it
and stay on my grind
it's ya girl D
Verse 1:
Flashin lights
callin my name
so I know that it's meant to be
no matter what people say
they might hate the game
but I gotta stand on my feet
I'm just a girl who makes moves
a girl who has to
make the most of whats given
I'm just a girl who grinds hard
a girl who stands tall
I gotta make the most of this
CHORUS:
I want my light to shine
my light to shine
so I gotta stay on my grind
only got one life to live
one life to live
so I gotta make the most of it
One life
One life
Only got one life to live
gotta make the most of it
Igotta make the most of it
only one life to live
Verse 2:
I don't waste no time
life seems to fly by
so I stay focused
cuz people come by
trying to kill the grind
but they do't understand
I'm just a girl who makes moves
a girl who has to
make the most of whats given
I'm just a girl who grinds hard
a girl who stands tall
I gotta make the most of this
CHORUS:
I want my light to shine
my light to shine
so I gotta stay on my grind
only got one life to live
one life to live
so I gotta make the most of it
One life
One life
Only got one life to live
gotta make the most of it
I gotta make the most of it
only one life to live
Bridge:
Gotta make the most of this
one life I got to live
Flashing lights
calling my name

Flashing lights
I know it's meant to be
And I know that someone out there
feels where I'm coming from
cuz you know you make the most of it
you know it' only one life to live
so you do what ya wanna
and you get what ya wanna cuz
CHORUS:
I want my light to shine
my light to shine
so I gotta stay on my grind
only got one life to live

so I gotta make the most of it
One life
One life
Only got one life to live
gotta make the most of it
gotta make the most of it
only one life to live
