Statik Selektah - Good Times lyrics

[Refrain] I spent my life making bad luck in the good times Looking back where I was taking the good things with the bad For all I've lost, seen this far make me realize I have I wanna live my days in vain but very far make me smile again Seems like a natural thing to do, just remember [Verse 1] Steady on my mind Bad luck, good times For me it happens in the morning when I'm waiting for lights I start thinking if he wrote my script different Pictures with the brush lets spray in this missed our existence Never gone as far to say I wished on a star But I could say I wished for a car Simple traits of us, people thinking too small Now I realize the blink of an eye, the medicine sink in us all Sink a swim till the season is fall, then it's gone to November But remember that December will call Permanent, not as long as some might think Last week I cleaned up some permanent ink Oh, I'm on the verge of a break There's something new before the sky might fall and earth sinks I sat down and played the cards I'm dealt Some good, some bad, and still the message was felt These are good times [Hook] [Verse 2] Oh it was 20/20 vision then, before the catch you and closed The audience was listening Oh that's the purpose of reflecting The purpose of a wordsmith's pen bleeding ink till my sketches permanent I put the madness to the method Round the same time Common dropped the Resurrection cla**ic I was still tripping off tabs of bad acid Dreaming about my own rap disc in plastic Selling demos back then became a lonely trail Always got denied by the homie with the pony tail Chalk that one up as that's part of the game, right Looking back I'd do that sh** the same The same time my mom was leaving my pops Was around the same time Neil Diamond sang Love on the Rocks Make yourself a good day cause no one will do this besides yourself Think about those words Each time when you're about to lose a good time [Hook] [Verse 3] You never know, you never know, you never know Good times is how I'm living it up With my gla** half full is how I'm viewing the cup It went from when it's over to holding on a four leaf clover Trying to find lady luck, where she at I'm stuck, seeing birds eye from 6'2" So I keep getting high, trying to lift my view It's funny how gotta pay bills can build the fan base I love the road but ain't losing my land and that's damn straight I make a plan and at least one I set a day I'm not quite ike but still draw from my anime I keep it moving and I plan to stay til the camera pans away These are good times, I walk the street with a bye And everything I did in the name of that high Whether I fly or I sold a million Got boo'ed every solitary hand up toward the ceiling These are good times [Hook]
