**[Intro]** Yeah… Lighten up… Life too short for all that weight… Uh… **[Verse 1 – 16 Bars]** Why you walking ‘round like the world on your back? Every little problem turn into a stack Face all tight, never crack a smile Acting like you ain’t been happy in a while Bills due, yeah I get that stress But you still breathing, that’s a blessing, yes Seen dark days, I done felt that pain But I learned real quick don’t drown in the rain Everybody fighting something you don’t see Silent battles, yeah, internally But if you stay stuck in that mindset loop You gon’ miss every win tryna chase the truth Laugh a little, let your shoulders drop Life ain’t perfect, but it don’t gotta stop Take a breath, let the moment live There’s more to life than what it takes and gives **[Hook – Melodic]** Why so serious? Why you carry all that weight, it ain’t curing us We just here for a moment, ain’t no reruns So smile for a second, let the light run Why so serious? You don’t gotta fight every day furious Let it go, let it flow, just experience Life a ride, don’t be so serious **[Verse 2 – 16 Bars]** I seen people lose it chasing after gold Lose their peace, lose their soul, lose control All that pressure just to keep a certain image Whole time they breaking down from the scrimmage Social media got ‘em feeling less Comparing lives, now they second guess What they got, what they built, who they are Looking at another life from afar But you don’t see the pain behind that lens Or the sleepless nights they can’t defend Everybody got a mask they wear You just see the highlight, not the tear So why you stressing ‘bout a perfect scene? When perfect don’t exist in reality Be yourself, let the fake dissolve Half your problems come from what you involve **[Hook – Melodic]** Why so serious? Why you carry all that weight, it ain’t curing us We just here for a moment, ain’t no reruns So smile for a second, let the light run Why so serious? You don’t gotta fight every day furious Let it go, let it flow, just experience Life a ride, don’t be so serious **[Bridge – Sung / Spoken]** Yeah… We laugh, we cry, we fall, we rise… But don’t forget to live between the lines… It ain’t that deep all the time… **[Verse 3 – 16 Bars]** I used to overthink every little move Second guessing everything I’d do Trying to control what I couldn’t hold That anxiety had my spirit cold Then I learned how to let things be Not everything meant for me to see Not every loss is a loss in truth Sometimes it’s just redirection proof Now I move with a lighter chest Less stress sitting on my chest Still got goals, still got drive But I’m actually living while I’m alive Laugh more now, I breathe more free Found a better version of me So if you hear this, take a step back Life ain’t heavy till you make it that **[Final Hook – Emotional]** Why so serious? Why you carry all that weight, it ain’t curing us We just here for a moment, ain’t no reruns So smile for a second, let the light run Why so serious? You don’t gotta fight every day furious Let it go, let it flow, just experience Life a ride, don’t be so serious **[Outro]** Yeah… Smile a little… You made it this far… That means something…
