Vs. 1:
Some people always talking about what other people do
Spreading lies on somebody will come back and haunt you
Some people always sticking their nose where it don’t belong
But if something don’t concern you then it’s best to leave it alone

Chorus:
Life is too short to carry on this way
It don’t make no different if you live are die they gonna talk anyway
Sometimes It’s best to shake it off and don’t worry about what they say
Cause misery loves company

Vs. 2:
So many people is against gay marriages
They always got something bad to say about it
Why debate on an issue that ain’t got nothing to do with you
Love don’t discriminate and it don’t have no color

Chorus:
Life is too short to carry on this way
It don’t make no different if you live are die they gonna talk anyway
Sometimes It’s best to shake it off and don’t worry about what they say
Cause as long as you’re happy that’s all should matter

Vs. 3:
The economy’s in a mess everybody’s blaming the president
But the United States was in shambles way before he was elected
Why can’t the world understand that Obama is just a man?
And he’s been doing the best that he can

Chorus:
Life is too short to carry on this way
It don’t make no different if you live are die they gonna talk anyway
Sometimes It’s best to shake it off and don’t worry about what they say
Just keep holding on to God’s hand and let him lead the way

Bridge:
There are people out here killing then they wanna act insane
But saying I’m sorry can’t bring back the life you’ve taken
Why should everything be about black and white I don’t know?
But this world ain’t gonna get no better until we learn how to love
