It's a Beautiful Weekend

[Verse 1] Stress built a house inside my chest Checked my phone again, couldn't catch a breath Clock on the wall was a bully with a loud tick Till I said not today, I quit the rat race quick [Pre-Chorus] Let the inbox pile up, let the boss man call The only overtime I'm doing is watching shadows fall Spilled coffee on my shirt? That's a badge of honor now The small stuff's too tiny to be sweating anyhow [Chorus] It's a beautiful weekend to let it roll off The daily grind can keep its gold, I'm clocking out No deadlines, no dollar signs, no race to run Just the sun on my skin and a day that's barely begun Yeah, the small stuff slips right through my hands I'm learning worry never made a single good plan So spin the world slow 'til my cares lift off It's a beautiful weekend—yeah, I'm finally soft [Post-Chorus] Don't sweat it, don't sweat it It's the weekend [Verse 2] Used to chase the corner office, broke my own back Now the only thing I'm climbing is a hammock's slack Left my to-do list in the break room, let it rot The small stuff had me running—now I run the lot [Pre-Chorus] The 9-to-5 can keep its chains, I'm breaking out My only metric for success is how loud I shout [Chorus] It's a beautiful weekend to let it roll off The daily grind can keep its gold, I'm clocking out No deadlines, no dollar signs, no race to run Just the sun on my skin and a day that's barely begun Yeah, the small stuff slips right through my hands I'm learning worry never made a single good plan So spin the world slow 'til my cares lift off It's a beautiful weekend—yeah, I'm finally soft [Bridge] If the sky goes gray, I still choose blue If they call it lazy, let them talk right through I don't need a trophy for a peaceful mind I'm rich in the minutes that I leave behind [Final Chorus] It's a beautiful weekend to let it roll off The daily grind can keep its gold, I'm clocking out No deadlines, no dollar signs, no race to run Just the sun on my skin and a day that's barely begun Yeah, the small stuff slips right through my hands I'm learning worry never made a single good plan So spin the world slow 'til my cares lift off It's a beautiful weekend—yeah, I'm finally soft
