Sol - Happiness lyrics
[Sol - Happiness lyrics]
Longevity is promised to no one
But the privileged and the profit's
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 fuck 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 the 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 laughterhappiness
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
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 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 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
(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
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
But the privileged and the profit's
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 fuck 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 the 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
