In "What A Life," Forrest Frank wakes up grateful for ordinary mercies: working lungs, blue sky, a car that starts, kids who mostly behave. The bridge turns that gratitude urgent, insisting tomorrow is not promised and yesterday is gone, so each moment should be lived like borrowed time. That urgency lands in the story of a boy whose cancer vanished after prayer, an X-ray showing a miracle. The repeated chorus becomes less a celebration than a decision to notice grace before it slips away.
What A Life Lyrics by Forrest Frank
I woke up today with a reason to praise
I got some air in my lungs and a smile on my face
I walked outside and I saw blue sky
Man, I’m so blessed I get to be alive
What a life (Woo)
What a life
What a life, mm-mm
What a life (Ayy)
I went for a drive and my car worked fine
When I made it to the store, it didn’t have a light
I told my kids, “No”, they didn’t throw a fit
Well, maybe they did just a little bit
What a life, mm
What a life
What a life, na-na-na-na-na-na
What a life
Tomorrow isn’t promised
And yesterday is gone
So let’s live like time is borrowed
And sing this one last song
Right before my show, I met this little kid
His mom said he wasn’t even ‘sposed to live
But some lady prayed for the cancer to go
And the X-ray showed it was a miracle
What a life, mm
What a life
What a life, na-na-na-na-na-na
What a life
What a life, what a life
What a life, what a life
