[Intro]
Everything gon' be alright
Everything gon' be okay
Everything gon' be alright
Everything gon' be okay
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh
[Verse 1]
Pursuit of happiness, been working and trappin'
Clock out to clock these sacks, I'm just
Looking for sunny days, feel the rain too often
Wondered how I'm gon' get past this shit
My path is lit, will I feel my casket before I grab what
I been chasing no weakness, I'm stuck on defense
Sitting on the fence asking how I'm gon' do this shit
And reach my peak
I'm feeling incomplete every time that I don't do what I need
Never been on that passive shit
Gotta get it, don't nobody wanna see you shine
I been trying to survive
Nigga don't wanna get his, so he rather be taking mines
Take my time as I ride down that I-45
As the time go by, start reflecting on memories
And enemies who I used to call friends
Motherfuckers is pretend
My trust just gon' be like fuck 'em, won't try my luck again
They only down to ride when you supplying
When you down then they hidin, that ain't down nigga
I move around like pieces on the chessboard
Every move I'm so cautious
Cause often forward progress is halted
Exhausted, these voices in my head more
I been trying to get to know God
I just hope he the one who talkin'
Used to get lost in my thoughts and I wanted to get away
Now I'm lost in my thoughts from the pressure that's on my brain
Knowing any day someone could take the shot to fade away my days
Wonder how much longer I'll remain
Wonder how much longer I can sustain the human condition
I'm living in the world that's centred around addiction
I been losing that feeling I once had
I find it a little harder to smile
And more influenced to run past my troubles, nigga
But fuck that shit
Gotta keep pushing, keep it thorough when I does my shit
I wanna buy my mom a house, and I ain't done that shit
Tryna' propose to my girl, but I can't fund that shit
They both deserve more than I worth
There's so much shit I wanna do on this Earth before I'm gone
Imma get myself up out the dirt, it won't be long
I'm on my way home like Gil-Scott Heron
Balancing hell and heaven, where I'm headed I don't know
But shit I may be there already
I'm ready when them trumpets blow
Smiling through the rain
Cause I've been living through the thunderstorm
Joy and pain, I put the yin with the yang
For a nigga like me, that's just another day
For the happiness
[Outro: Scolla]
The sun don't shine living on my side of town
And I'm so used to the rain
I hide my pain when it's coming down
Oh, if it wasn't for you, I'd never know happy
So I owe that back, and gold wrapping
See this world on my back ain't new
If that ain't true
Don't worry, I got you
Everything gon' be alright
Everything gon' be okay
Everything gon' be alright
Everything gon' be okay
Oh, oh, oh, oh
Oh, oh
