Smile |
I’m makin' money while asleep but I’m runnin' outta sheep to count |
So deep down, it’s a downward spiral |
The more I’m thinkin', the more I create |
And I force myself to keep it up with childhood idols |
Maybe not the best way to make my ends meet |
And my peeps keep pretendin' they behavin' what my pen bleed |
One poke in the nose to send the blow back |
Rolling up some potent hoping I would toke that |
But know that I’m so past, I’ve seen it too many times |
From people in the distance to really close friends of mine |
R.I.P. |
Rob Nick and Kristian the great died young in the place I’m from but |
listen |
If I would give you one advice |
To stop overthinkin' things that keep one up at night |
Stop waitin' for a lucky strike, it’s an ugly fight to live this life through a |
tunnel sight |
You gotta smile through the bullshit to weather the storm |
'Cause with time comes pain and the pressure is on |
Life tests us from the very second we’re born |
Throughout the timeline and the lesser we mourn |
Some people have nothin', others have it all |
Some people move on, others stumble and fall |
Different walks of life, different minds in our shoes |
No matter where you’re from, I keep on smilin' at you |
You gotta smile |
I smile in the booth |
I smile in the booth |
You gotta smile |
Break down the meaning of the smile |
Ever since an adolescent, kept raining on my mind |
Whatchu know about depressions, I’m throwin' out the question |
I’m reminiscin', stuck in a time capsule |
Mind travellin' under my five panel |
Instead of fightin' my battles on the frontline |
I’m unsigned by choice but still doin' tough time |
Plus I’m cut from a different cloth |
See, I smile when it rains, feel pain when the sun shines |
I soul seek and need some time alone to proceed on those cobblestone streets |
I’m not at home, feeling out of place |
Outta space mindstate but these waters runs deeps |
Some people never had much and never complain |
Some people got it all but it’s never enough |
Most people never have to go to memory lane to see the loved ones live |
Yo, when does it change? |
You gotta smile through the bullshit to weather the storm |
'Cause with time comes pain and the pressure is on |
Life tests us from the very second we’re born |
Throughout the timeline and the lesser we mourn |
Some people have nothin', others have it all |
Some people move on, others stumble and fall |
Different walks of life, different minds in our shoes |
No matter where you’re from, I keep on smilin' at you |
You gotta smile |
I smile in the booth |
I smile in the booth |
You gotta smile |
Break down the meaning of the smile |
Yeah, yeah, look |
I was thinkin' to myself, are these the times I remember for the rest of my |
life? |
Let me testify mine if you just could find time, you could follow but remember |
that it’s just a guideline |
I’m on the right side of the line between love and hate |
Feelin' something great, beat my chest like a fucking ape |
Stress’ll make you suffer, then suffocate |
Somethin' ain’t right within your system if you love to hate |
If you can’t take the criticism, then you sit within a fickle prison |
Man, I’m on a different mission |
I’m tryna build a bridge between this division |
If you feel the way I do, you should be sittin' with us |
Sick of people judgin' with a quick opinion |
Tryna make your mind up when you didn’t sit and listen |
Felt the pressure like never before |
We gotta smile through the bullshit to weather the storm It goes |
You gotta smile through the bullshit to weather the storm |
'Cause with time comes pain and the pressure is on |
Life tests us from the very second we’re born |
Throughout the timeline and the lesser we mourn |
Some people have nothin', others have it all |
Some people move on, others stumble and fall |
Different walks of life, different minds in our shoes |
No matter where you’re from, I keep on smilin' at you |
You gotta smile |
I smile in the booth |
I smile in the booth |
You gotta smile |
Break down the meaning of the smile |
