Lyrics Get That Good Feeling - Akira the Don, Joe Rogan

Get That Good Feeling

It’s this fear of discomfort
People have this extreme feeling in their mind when it comes to their
associations with exercise
They want to avoid discomfort
They feel like any type of exercise is just like something to be avoided,
that’s not for me, fuck that
I don’t wanna sweat, I don’t wanna strain
I don’t wanna sweat, I don’t wanna strain
A lot of times this association that they have is about the beginnings of
getting in shape
It’s not about once you’re actually fit
'Cause once you’re actually fit, then you look forward to, it feels great
If I can’t get a workout in, I look at my schedule and go
Oh shit, I don’t have any time for workout, which means I’m not going to get
that good feeling, get, get that good feeling
And so instead of looking at it like, «Oh, I’ve gotta go grunt and sweat.»
I’m thinking I’m not gonna feel good, I’m not gonna feel relaxed,
I’m not going to feel carefree
Even appreciative, like my appreciation of things, it gets enhanced greatly
after exercise
I just feel better
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
Get that good feeling, get, get that good feeling, get that good feeling
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
Get that good feeling, get, get that good feeling, get that good feeling
It feels great
To most people, their associations are to avoid anything that’s uncomfortable
It’s so illogical
Discomfort is your friend, it really is
Discomfort, not being happy and content with certain situations in life,
they are massive, massive motivators
They’re amazing at facilitating change
Yet our instinct is to avoid those and just sit on the couch
And watch some fucking reality show
It’s bizarre
When I would get really disciplined and really consistent with my workouts
I almost feel momentum
I feel like there’s push behind me, like, all right, yeah, now I’m doing it
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
Get that good feeling, get, get that good feeling, get that good feeling
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
Get that good feeling, get, get that good feeling, get that good feeling
Yeah, now I’m doing it
Yeah, now I’m doing it
I’m doing it all the time now
I’m looking forward to the next time, and it makes that resistance much weaker
and it makes my motivation and my discipline much stronger
I think a lot of it is based on just the consistency
Blowing something off is not just bad for you physically, it’s also bad mentally
Because then that option is now available, the option to fuck off
You did it before and you’re probably gonna do it again, and you’ll get
mediocre results, not just in that aspect of your life, maybe in all aspects of
your life
That option to fuck off, when you embrace it
That is a pathway that you might choose when it comes to dealing with conflict
in your personal life
Business, business decisions, career decisions, like an uncomfortable decision
that you might be faced with
What your pathway is in life, but you don’t do it
Instead, you fuck off
And that inclination to fuck off, that gathers momentum as well
The inclination to be disciplined, that comes with momentum
I think both things, you take a path
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
Get that good feeling, get, get that good feeling, get that good feeling
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
I wanna sweat, I wanna strain
Get that good feeling, get, get that good feeling, get that good feeling
It feels great
It feels great
You take a path
Or the path of the fuck off
Your body is like a race car that you can juice up yourself
You can add the fat car, you can add, improve suspension
You can beef up the horsepower in the engine
You can do all that yourself
Or you can just choose to have this shitty body
No one’s under the illusion that you’re gonna live forever, but you are
enhancing the experience that you’re currently involved in right now
You are alive, you do experience this life, but do you experience this life
optimally?
Is it as enjoyable as it can be?
And we all know that there’s a spectrum for that enjoyability
We’ve all had times in our life where it’s not been so great
And then times in our life where everything came together
Like what a fucking great day, woo!
Great day, woo!
Great day, woo!
Great day, woo!
Make more of those
Make more of those
Make more of those
You can make more of those
And then the whole thing is better
And then the whole thing is better
And I think when that whole thing is better, it affects everybody you touch
Everybody that’s around you, everybody you come in contact with
That in turn, I mean, it sounds so grandiose, but in turn can affect the entire
race of human beings
