Alex Isley, Mumu Fresh - Key to Happiness lyrics

On behalf of my sister fuck cancer
We’re going to live our best lives
While we have the chance to
So forgive me if I drop it like a dancer
I’m celebrating cuz I finally
Found the answer it's the subtle art of not
Giving too many fucks
And that don’t mean that you
Don't show your people love
It just means that you love
Yourself enough to let
Grown people be grown people and give it up

"It's above me now" is my mantra
I swеar God can do more for
You than I ever could
So I pull up out thе hood with my entourage
That's my son, my 3 nieces
And my nephew Jamal, aye y'all

I think I found the key to happiness
Got nothing to do with drugs or sex
Got nothing to do with who the best
I finally believe in happiness cuz oh

I’m finally living freely
Ain't worried about who or what ain’t for me
And even if the sun don’t shine
Even if life ain't kind
Victory’s mine, oooh
I finally found my happiness

Sometimes my tears break through my smile
Telling the stories that I try to hide
Take it all in stride
Cuz shit, I got some tales I could tell you
Got a few days of spare
Time? I won't fail you
My therapist so entertained I need a refund
She keeps laughing at my pain
Asking for a rerun
Soap opera shit like young and the arrested
Thoroughbreded from a city
That’s drug infested
I'm so glad I don’t wear it on my face
Keeping everything in place
You know black girls don’t age
Thank God I can sing away the pain
I can leave it on the stage
You know Imma be ok cuz

I think I found the key to happiness
Ain’t got nothing to do with drugs or sex
Got nothing to do with who the best
I finally believe in happiness cuz oh

I’m finally living freely
Ain’t worried about who or what ain't for me
And even if the sun don’t shine
Even if life ain't kind
Victory’s mine, oooh
I finally found my happiness

I’ve been all around the world
And I must confess i found true happiness
In those who had much less
Capitalism it got us all in a mess
Thinking joy can only come
From us having the best shoes, cars, sex
Big name brands on our chests
You’s a fool! What you thought?
You just chasing the next
What we’re lacking is perspective
A true collective
Where we can feel connected and protected
Loved and not rejected it’s simple

We’re all looking for the same thing
Love and safety somewhere where we belong
Oh it’s really not hard at all, cuz oh

I’m finally living freely
Ain’t worried about who or what ain’t for me
And even if the sun don’t shine
Even if life ain't kind
Victory’s mine, oooh
I finally found my happiness
