michael franti & spearhead - positive lyrics

[verse 1]
makes me, make me sweat, ’till i’m wet, ’till i’m dry
but then wipe this tear from my eye
haven’t even felt this warm in a long time
even out in the bright sunshine in a lifetime of spring times
i fall into your arms with my heart pumpin’ on like a bubblin’ dub track
like a garl!cky hot tongue and lip smack
i did some contemplation
before we got down to this consecration
well maybe baby something in your kiss said it was impetuous
for me to rethink this
if i love you, then i better get tested
make sure we are protected
i walk through the park dressed like a question mark
hark! i hear my memory bark
in the back of my brain
makin’ me insane, like cocaine

[chorus]
but how’m i gonna live my life if i’m positive?
is it gonna be a negative?
but how’m i gonna live my life if i’m positive?
but how’m i gonna live my life if i’m positive?
is it gonna be a negative?
but how’m i gonna live my life if i’m positive?

[verse 2]
it dawned on me, it seemed to me that this is unusual scenery
this red light greenery
make me feel kinda dreamery
thinkin’ how i used to be
arrive at the clinic
and walk through the front door
take a nervous number then i think about it more
about all the time that i neglected
making sure that i was protected
they took my blood with an anonymous number
two weeks waitin’ and wonderin’
i shoulda done this a long time ago
a lot of excuses why i couldn’t go
i know these things and these things i must know
but it’s better to know than to not know

[verse 3]
i go home to kick it in my apartment
i try to give myself a risk -ssessment
the waiting is what can really annoy ya
every single day is more paranoia
i’m readin’ about how aids gets transmitted
some behavior i must admit it
who i slept with, who they slept with
who they, who they, who they, who they slept with
i think about life and immortality
what’s the first thing i do if i’m h.i.v?
i have a cry and tell my mother
get on the phone and call my past lovers
i never thought about infectin’ another
all the times that i said “hmmm? don’t bother.”
was it really all that magic?
the times i didn’t use a prophylactic
would my whole life have to change?
or would my whole life remain the same?
sometimes it makes me wanna shout
all these things too hard to think about
a day to laugh, a day to cry
a day to live and a day to die
’till i find out, i may wonder
but i’m not gonna live my life six feet under

[chorus]
cause how’m i gonna live my life if i’m positive?
is it gonna be a negative?
and how’m i gonna live my life if i’m positive?
and how’m i gonna live my life if i’m positive?
is it gonna be a negative?
and how’m i gonna live my life if i’m positive?
