Happiness - SOL

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 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 laughter… 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

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
