[Intro] Keep smiling for the joy
I was looking for the joy, for the joy
Keep smiling for the joy, for the joy
[Chorus] Could you be around
Could you hold me down, be around
Could you hold me down, be around
Could you hold me down, yeah be around
Ok let's do it like this, this the demo
[Verse 1] I had a dream about last night
I'm really missing my past life
Ain't got no love for the fast life
I remember walking to mall without people begging for pictures
Baby mama mad coz I'm travelling over Christmas
Eish
The other day, my son called me by my stage name
I thought it was funny, it took a moment
For me to think about, to understand what it means
My family twisted coz of my dreams
Money buys things but money ain't what it seems
Can't buy love so f** it, I buy jeans
Can't buy friends unless you buy you some fake ones
The same n***as is n***as you get your hate from
Bet they never put you on nothing unless they ate from
n***as probably give you the key they broke a [?] from
Eish
Circumstances of being me, without you where would I be
I'm dreaming of being free
Eish
[Chorus] The whole time
[?] The whole time
[?] That ain't right
Keep smiling, I was looking for the joy, for the joy
Keep smiling for the joy, for the joy
The whole time
[?] The whole time
[?] That ain't right
Keep smiling, I was looking for the joy, for the joy
Keep smiling for the joy
I was looking for the joy
What would you do
For the money
What would you do
For the money
What would you say
For the money
What would you do
For the money
Money
[Verse 2] Baby mama done everything for me
Sometimes I wish I was a better man
Nightmares thinking I'm about to lose her
Stuck in the club spending money with all the losers
Eish
She's sitting at home, I'm getting lit
Five in the morning Whatsapp said: where you at?
Still in the club, text back, I'm nearly there
Knowing good and well I got b**hes here that I'm with
Same b**hes 3 years back that I ain't sh**
It's kinda crazy we love honeys that love things
Put your life on the line for sweet nothings
Pappa taught me how to womanise
Never taught me bout real love before he died
f** it, over ten years gone missing my n***a
All I needed in my life was father figures
But I guess you gotta grow on your own
Even though the memories will never leave you alone
I said eish
[Chorus] The whole time
[?] The whole time
[?] That ain't right
Keep smiling, I was looking for the joy, for the joy
Keep smiling for the joy
The whole time
[?] The whole time
[?] That ain't right
Keep smiling, I was looking for the joy, for the joy
Keep smiling for the joy
Looking for the joy
I was looking for the joy
Looking for the joy
I was looking for the joy
Looking for the joy
I was looking for the joy
Looking for the joy
I was looking for the joy
What would you do
For the money
What would you do
For the money
What would you say
For the money
What would you do
For the money
