[Intro] [clean plucked electric guitar riff, 95 BPM] Yeah Yeah [Verse 1] [melodic rap vocals, 808 bass and trap drums enter] Lately I've been thinking life ain't so bad Now I sit here and I wonder why I've been so mad It's hard to think about the times I used to lay in bed I came a long way and I ain't going back I know I got demons in my head And I know that they want me dead And I know I can't let them win So I just play this song again And I know, I know that times get hard for sure But I won't bend or fold, I ain't ready to let it go I got a long way to go, dreams of getting money on the road City after city and it's never getting old Couple good friends and the drinks always cold Got some good weed and it's already rolled God damn, it feels like I'm flying away I don't try to fight the currents, I'm just riding the wave I just had to learn how to get my mind out the way Now things are looking up and I'm trying to say [Chorus] [sung vocals, atmospheric synth pads enter] Life is what you make it, put a smile on your face I wasted so much time trying to wait for better days I don't have the answers but I know I'll find a way To hold on to this feeling, if I do I'll be okay Sometimes my life is amazing, hard times they tested my patience I don't know what everybody is waiting for Just live your life and be crazy I'm tired of thinking about all my mistakes I'd rather give thanks for the life that I made No more living like I'm stuck in a cage I'm breaking out and I'm ruling the day (yo) [Verse 2] [rhythmic rap vocals, synth pads drop out] Same life, new views, I walk a mile in some new shoes I got some screws loose, and don't you try to bring me down with your blues clues Every time you come around you got bad news, I can't go down that road again It's so easy to get lost in the negative I just slow it down and I take my time with this I don't play around, I can't lose myself again 'Cause I just got back, no you can't tell me relax I know that life moving too fast, give me the facts Pressure is bound to make diamonds but even the stars can collapse But I won't do that, I'm pushing back and I'm fighting the demons that try to attack I don't need a map, I'm searching for new horizons and I'm making up my own path [Chorus] [sung vocals, synth pads re-enter] Life is what you make it, put a smile on your face I wasted so much time trying to wait for better days I don't have the answers but I know I'll find a way To hold on to this feeling, if I do I'll be okay Sometimes my life is amazing, hard times they tested my patience I don't know what everybody is waiting for Just live your life and be crazy I'm tired of thinking about all my mistakes I'd rather give thanks for the life that I made No more living like I'm stuck in a cage I'm breaking out and I'm ruling the day [Outro] [vocals fade out, guitar riff continues solo] [track ends with final guitar chord]
