The Zillas - Happiness lyrics

Longevity is promised to no one But the privileged and the profits And even them they get shot down too often All I've ever been is an artist, I ain't running for office I don't f** with the politics climbing ladders and falling On paper I got no reason 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 Makes us human and bring us laughter...Happiness [Chorus] 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 sh** you never know Sometimes I feel foolish Sometimes I act stupid Sometimes I feel perfectly me With nothing to prove and sh** 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 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 uncharted waters Be honest with yourself and others Beside that do the f** 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 (reconnect)...Happiness [Chorus] 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 sh** you never know 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
