Happiness

Longevity is promised to no one but the privileged and the profits And even them they get shot down too often I don't fuck with the politics, climbing ladders and falling On paper I got no reasons to fight these demons I have When I'm at my greatest I face them face to mask and feed them to my pad When I'm at my weakest I roll them up in a joint And kick it with them all night, through weekend and keep going Next thing you know ain't wrote a poem in a month Ain't called my mom in a week Ain't seen my brother in a year and we hardly speak You see these things matter because they're what make us more than just matter Memories, family, music, make us human and bring us laughter... Happiness I'm eating good - I'm living good But still I'm searching the world for something better though If this is life, I pray I live it right And treat everyday like it's my last cause shit you never know (Two) Sometimes I feel foolish - sometimes I act stupid Sometimes I feel perfectly me with nothing to prove and shit Nothing to do but do my best and chase happiness Cause if you ain't having fun what are you doing with yourself? I feel like life is less of a movie and more of a novel You are not the actor you are the author Any moment start a new chapter Choose your own adventure, venture into unchartered waters Be honest with yourself and others, beside that do what the fuck you wanna Happiness is more than smiles, sometimes it means you cry Because you hurt because you love, if not you're numb and then die inside I was trying to fly before I learned to swim, my wings were wet We drift to shore and reconnect... Happiness I'm eating good - I'm living good But still I'm searching the world for something better though If this is life I pray I live it right And treat everyday like it's my last cause shit you never know (Three) If I'm the greatest - But not on your playlist Does that make me the tree that fell in the forest? They'll never know I ain't perfect but I'm down to put the work in And I found a way to make it worth it... I wrote a song you'll never hear, cause I chose to live not live in fear If I lose my mind then let em know I finished here Forever yours, I been sincere Since we're being real, I should let you know Even though it's far from home - Happiness is where I'm going
