Lyrics Sol – Happiness

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

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

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
