The Life I Live is the 2000 debut solo album by American R&B singer, Torrey Carter. The album was led by the top 20 R&B hit, "Take That" (featuring Missy Elliott);^[1] the album also listed "If It's Money That You Want" as the second single, where it began to gain minor airplay. However, both singles failed to become much of a success, thus the album was shelved.^[2]
