So you wanna live forever
Like this shit's a happy dream
But you know it's far from perfect
This shit ain't always what it seems
A happy dream, shit ain't always what it seems huh
It's always good or bad, it's never in between huh
Smiles and happiness or misery and deep in sorrow
You tryna live forever, I just wanna see tomorrow
Always complaining cause this life has got me stressing huh
Can't keep the same energy for all my blessings huh
Ignore the good cause the bad I feel it more
Get to see another sunrise as I'm walking out the door
So you wanna live forever
Like this shit's a happy dream
But you know it's far from perfect
This shit ain't always what it seems
Another day
Barely made it through yesterday
Used to be confident but now I always hesitate
Life got me asking is this shit even really worth it
Expectations got me wanting to be more than perfect
I try to tame them but it's like an urge I can't resist
Feels like I'm racing but the finish line just don't exist
And I'm tired cause it feels I'm running nowhere
Now I gotta walk this life just pretending that I don't care
So you wanna live forever
Like this shit's a happy dream
But you know it's far from perfect
This shit ain't always what it seems
Shit ain't always perfect but we take what were dealt
We try our best to forget but can't forget how we felt
A roller coaster of emotions, yeah some days I wanna scream
Fuck this life, but I hold back cause shit ain't always what it seems
Look around, you realize, this ain't the worst that it could be
That don't mean that your feelings or your problems matter less
I'm just saying that sometimes our blessings little hard to see
But look around the next time that you feel a bit depressed
So you wanna live forever
Like this shit's a happy dream
But you know it's far from perfect
This shit ain't always what it seems
The up and downs of life, that's what makes it worth living
What if everything we wanted was everything were given
Can't appreciate happiness if you ain't felt no pain
Sunshine don't feel the same if you ain't ever walked through rain
Hands in our pocket, upset that we ain't ballin'
A lot of us are rich without a dollar in our wallet
We overlook it cause it ain't exactly how we want it
The story of my life and I just don't know what to call it
So you wanna live forever
Like this shit's a happy dream
But you know it's far from perfect
This shit ain't always what it seems
